Fight May Be Carried Into Next Legislature if Un- . successful Now. AN Special Dispatch to The Call. SAN JOSE, Sept. 11.—Santa Clara Coun- ty is ‘willing to take the State Fair off Sacramento’s hands, and the movement to this end is assuming some proportions. San Jose is the main factor in the fight, and it is proposed to locate the annual State exhibit in this city. San Jose claims | to have the best racetrack in the State | for a meeting such as is held in connec- tion with the State Fair. The plan to remove the State Fair to | this city is meeting the approval of the Horsemen have held several in- formal meet and James W. Rea has been directed > the idea. State | Senator ( s the Thirty- first Distric been consulted, not only for his i fon, but to obtain his influence to have the chang. made. Rea is out of town at present, but it is known that he is doing the hardest kind of wor bring the fair to San Jose. G. Y. Bollinger, Dr. Nash, F. W. Covey of the Stanford stock farm and others are enth tic over. the project. About the county are located Rea's Vendome ables, Donanue’ Laurelwood farm, | Boots iwood farm and the Stanford , and all of these concerns are | id to llw a unit in favor of bringing the to this city. Secretary H. H. Main of the Santa Cla- | icuitural Society said to-day: | rse, we want the State Fair, and | San Jose ought to get it. This is the| natural place for the State Fair. We have | of the best parks in the State, and there is none that equals it except Los | Ange Both the running and the trot- | tng tracks were clayed at an expense of | $4009, and they are of the best.

After a careful examination of the stat- utes 1 find nothing_that prohibits the State Agricultural Board from taking | such action as it may deem advisable. At most it would require nothing more than | a resolution directing that the next State | Fair meet in San Jose, and that in itself would be sufficient, in my mind.” Senator Oneal wants the fair to come to San Jose, and while he refuses to say much it is said that uriess the State so- ciety takes the desired action a bill reor- ganizing the board and naming San Jose as the site of the State Fair will be in- troduced by him during the next session of the Legislature, Pl SO R SACRAMENTO NOT ALARMED. Agricultural Directors Say the Fair Will Remain There. SACRAMENTO, Sept. 11.—The proposi- tion suggested by James W. Rea, the San Jose politician, tkat the State Fair be re- moved from Sacramento to San Jose does appear to be seriously entertained here, although the danger of Sacramento losing the fair at some time or other by legislative action is admitted. Such of the | directors of the State Board of Agricul- ACRAMENTO, Sept. 11.—As the Btate Fair meeting nears its elose the attendance at Agricultural Park apparently improves and the sport takes on a much more glossy and refined appearance. To-day the big grand stand was crowded and a surging mass of humanity down in the betting ring tried another round of it with the pencilers. It is sald Caesar Young had “‘won out” some two or three days ago on his $17,500 bid for the privilege, so a trivial loss or 80 does not worry the Eng- lish-Oakland bookie and his staff. The talent put in quite a profitable day as | four out of six cholces rung up bullseyes. Poor “Chub” Russell has a knack of continually keeping.in trouble. It is dol- lars to a Lodi watermelon that if he were to fall from a balloon he would land in the Bering Sea and freeze to death.

KELLEY-TAYLOR JOKER 15 VALID Counties of California | Lose Millions in Li- cense Taxes, Supreme Court Declares in Favor of Insidious Amendment. —e i H The Supreme Court yesterday, in the | case of Henry Pfirrmann of Los Angeles, | upheld the validity of the Kelley-Taylor license amendment, and now the outside counties must bear the loss of millions of doliars. The *“joker” has done the work for which it was supposedly intended, and the liquor dealers from Siskiyou to San | Diego are transported with delight. The law, which is interpreted in a man- ner which forbids boards of supervisors, | city councils and town trustees from is- suing licenses for purposes of revenue, reads as follows: . Boards of Supervisors of counties of the State and the legislative bodies of the incor- porated cities and towns therein shall in the exercise of their police powers and for purpose of regulation as hereinbefore provided, and not otherwise, have power to license all and every kind of business not prohibited by law and transacted and carried on within the | | limits of their pective jurisdictions. Pfirrmann had paid the regular municl- pal tax to the authorities of the city of Los Angeles. When the county tax was also levied he rebelled and was impris- | The Supreme Court released him | on a writ of habeas corpus, and since then the Los Angeles District Attorney | and a dozen amici curiae have been delv- ing into musty tomes in a vain endeavor | to prove that the fateful amendment was unconstitutional. | Meanwhile, as The Call has previously noted, E. K. Taylor, one of the authors of the bill, and his friends are alleged to have' been soliciting business from liquor dealers and assuring their clients that without victory there would be no costs for legal advice. The Supreme Court lays away the argu- ments of the various county attorneys one after the other with little or no con- sideration and unqualifiedly afirms the validity of the amendment. | AMATEUR GOLF-PLAYERS OUT FOR CHAMPIONSHI? Champion Travis and ax-Cha.mpionE Findlay Douglass Still in the Tournament. ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., Sept. 11.—Only eight players remain in the tournament in progress here to decide the amateur golf championship of America. Holabird, who is only 17 years old, proved a formidable antagonist for Lockwood, who wen after Champion W. J. Travis had little difficulty in proving his superior- "ly over C. B. MacDonald, the 18% cham- plon. The only Philadelphian in the tourna- ment, R._E. Griscom, was pitted against Findlay S. Douglass, the 'ex-champion, and runner-up in the last two champion- ships. He made short work of the Quaker. Percy Pyne, the Princetonian, created a surprise by defeating Archie Reid, the St. | Andrews player. The results of the sec- ond round follow: Percy Pyne, Princeton, beat W. C. Fownes, Pittsburg, 4 up and 3 to play. C, H. Seeley, Weeburn, defeated H. Fownes, Pittsburg, 9 up. A. G.
