FREE. PUBLIC MARKET
For several years the horticultural
societies and associations throughout
the State, have urged the necessity for
| establishing a free public market on
! the water front at San Francisco. The
| Legislature answered to the pressure
brought to bear, and as finally signed
| by the Governor, the statute govern
! ing the case is as follows:
Section L. The Board of State Har-
Dor Commissioners shall set apart upon
some convenient portion of the water
front of San Francisco, sufficient
number of docks and piers, which must
| be contiguous to each other for the
| reception of all perishable products, ar
| irving by rail- boat or other convey
ance, including fruit vegetables, eggs,
poultry, game, dairy products, and
| fish, coming into San Francisco, and
| shall permit the sale of such products
! thereon, by or for account of produce
ers only, under such regulations as
may be prescribed by the said Harbor
! Commissioners and as the public con-
venience may require.
Section =. The docks and piers so
set apart for a free public market shall
be as convenient as possible to that
portion of the city and county of San
Francisco in which the principal
wholesale trade in perishable products
| is now carried on, and must be so sit
uated as to be accessible to all water
craft ordinarily employed in carrying
such products upon the waters of San
| Francisco Bay, and vessels so loaded
shall have the preference in docking
at said wharves over others not so
engaged.
| Section 3 Docking room at said
| piers shall be assigned without par
| tlaIity TO all vessels engaged in the
| transportation of such products and
the space assigned shall be sufficient to
permit such vessels regularly running
upon route to receive and discharge
their entire cargoes of such products
| at such piers, if they so desire. The
Harbor Commissioners shall construct
car tracks toN connect the docks and
piers so set apart for the free public
| market with the belt railroad. For
| the use of these tracks the State Har-
J Dor Commissioners shall prescribe such
regulations as public convenience NAV
require, and fix the compensation to
be paid by the companies making use
of them for this purpose.
| Section 4. The Harbor Commission
| ers must construct suitable tramways
and tracks or other devices for the
rapid conveyance of perishable pro-
| ducts from car or boat or other con-
