NO STATE FAIR THIS YEAR.
The Agricultural society Deems ii Not
Feasible Undertaking.


The meeting of the executive committee
Of the Virginia Agricultural and Mcchau-
zeal society yesterday was by no means i'm
dicatiye of any great interest in the pro-
posed movement 10 hold q state fmr TINS
year
There were only four members present:
President Ashton ~tarhv, DR.. Il. &. Patter-
son. Mr.. Lewis -. Crensbaw and General
Joseph Il. Anderson. Colonel \. =. Bulord
and MAJOR Joseph Bryan sent letters ln
which they expressed themselves in favor
of holding the fair and General John u.
Cooke. Major X. W. Burke. Of stanton.
and Colonel NOmand Smith, Of lIenrico.
embraced the same medium i'm order TO put
themselves on record as not iaNOrlng a lalr.
Mr.. Ashton Starkc addressing the come
mittee said: Il am i'm favor of holding "a
Fair'this fall, as was that We should have
held one last fall. The reasons for such ol-
iniOn are too many and too obvious % even
name now. If Richmond can't carry
through such a thing as state Fair, with
the appliances, etc. she has on The FAR
Grounds, she should cease pretending. and
give way 10 other and smaller southern
cities who can and are making 50 much
better showing of enterprise ANA spirit.
General Anderson took occasion To- "a!
that be could not see clearly any very great
GOOD. that might result i'm holding a fair,
unless the citizens OfRichmond were wiling
to raise fund of at least $4,000. lie did
not think the society felt willing to incur
additional Indebtedness. until the LNpo-i-
ton debt. of $4,000. or more AL Dee u
cleared UP. The generars idea was first 90
limidate this debt, and then repeat the
Great EXPOSITION Of lNN>. These views met
the concurrence of Or. Patterson. After
some informal talk the following resolution
was adopted
Whereas it is the opinion of this commit
ties that if the ways and means could DE
made clear that il would be desirable Ia
hold a State Fair this fall; but the present
condition of the affairs of the Society does
not encourage us t0 undGItake such q
thing. and we see no way % such an end.
The citizens Of Richmond should take the
matter OF raising "a necessary ind IN hand
and 50 place the Society i'm position 10 hold
the Fair. II il the further opinion of the
committee that "a fund OF $4,000 would have
to be placed in the hands of the committee
and perhaps guarantee OF $1,000 10 meet
any possible deficit; therefore.
Resolved. That it is not feasible TO under
take state Fair this fall.
Nothing was said about future meeting
