THAT HACK ORDINANCE.
| Mr.. Green introduced the following rcso-
| luton:
WHEREAS, 1t having been called to the atten-
ton of the State Board of Agriculture, that the
| Board of Trustees have passed an ordinance re-
| quiring all vehicles owned by non residents of
Sacramento 10 pay Il license OF $50 per quarter
and each runner for said vehicle to pay license
of $40, thereby preventing all who desire to at
tend the State Fair and assist in transporting
passengers to and from the Park and Pavilion,
|
| and whereas, the location of the new Pavilion
makes it imperative for all who desire TO attend
to ride to and fro, and the State Fair is an in
| stitution supported by the citizens of the State
| who are entitled to equal recognition with cti-
| zens Of Sacramento therefore, be it
ReSolred That it is the sense of this Board that
| said ordinance should be repealed, as we fully
| believe it would work great disadvantage to
citizens of this State and injury to the city of
Sacramento, and that the Board of Directors are
| desirous of obtaining as many conveyances as
tagtT -TaT tlon
State Fair.
The resolution was adopted unanimously
and each member expressed their surprise
| that the Board of City Trustees should pass
so unjust and discriminating an ordinance.
Such action, they declared, would result in
| an effort TO secure the removal of the State
Fair from this city. President Finigan
said if the Board did not revoke the ordi-
nance he would resign his position as Pres
ident of the Society.
1t was understood that the Board of CITY
Trustees had expressed a Willingness TO
meet the Directors at 10 A. NJ. to-day, when
| the matter will be discussed, and the action
of the Trustees in all probability rescinded.
| The Chair appointed as a committee of
| conference, Directors Hancock, Green, La
Rue and Shippee.
GLANDERED HORSES.
| Director Chase introduced the following.
which was adopted:
| Resolved, That committee of three be ap-
| pointed with power to act, to investigate the
| law at present existing for the suppression of
| CHAMBERS and other contagious diseases, and if
| found Ineffective to DRAFT an Act to be submitted
| to the next Legislature for adoption, providing
| for the most stringent measures in regard to the
| eXtirpation of said diseases.
ResoLued, That copies of said Act be furnished
| the Boards of Supervisors of the several counties
| throughout the state for their approval, and
| they be requested TO urge upon their respective
legislative delegations to give their support in
| aid of such measures.
