the sale of the property, and this year
practically the same bill was introduced,
but with this additional provision-that
If within a year after the sale the fair is
not re-estabIished in Sacramento County,
then there Is to be paid Sacramento Coun-
ty the difference between the price of the
property and the debts upon 1t. 1t will
sell for about 100000, and there are debts
amounting to $4,000.
Senator Doty said the idea was that the
county should be repaid if the fair were
established anywhere else, but If it were
again located in Sacramento County, all
measure was one for the protection of the
county in case the fair were removed.
But the Senate would not look at it
that way. 1t was pointed out that the
county had raised the original money, +,
$50 900, willingly and with view to secur-
ing the advantages arising from the pres
ence Of the fair. and that 1T had reaped
much more than had been sown. It was
to amend the bill so as to order
the money paid into the State Treasury
for the benefit of the State.
This was not what Senator Doty or his
wanted. Under the act of
two years ago the money goes into the
State Treasury, but there Is nothing to
prevent Sacramento from taking try at
1t anyway through the courts.
But in trying to make it certain for the
the promoters of the scheme met
something which put 1t out of their way
altogether and they objected. The amend
ment passed, however, and the bill was
laid over for amendment, despite Senator
Doty's statement that they would sooner
have the old law than the pending bill
with its amendment.
