terurban also told of the railroad
facilities of GAINESVILLE. A letter was
read from Secretary Robber of the
Rockford shippers association, urg
ing the location of the fair in James
vile for the accommodation of the
people of northern Illinois. 1t was
inconvenient for such people to go tc
Milwaukee, he said, and the Illinois
state fair was too far away.
The speakers pointed out that James
vile has 116 passenger trains day
besides interurban cars every hall
hour. II is also on the main line be
tween the two state fairs of Mime
sofa and Illinois. They declared that
GAINESVILLE also had large railroad
yards sufficient to accommodate more
cars than a state fair would bring and
that it would be easy to build spun
tracks to the fair grounds which are
not far from the business section oil
the city 1t was also pointed CIT that
almost any point in the state could
be reached within six hours, making
it possible for exhibitors and Others
to come to and return from the fair
