THOSE THEATER LICENSES.
'
General Clunie Treats the Supervisors!
to Some Oratory.
lie Declares That the Theaters Cannot
Open Undor the Present License—
Arthur Sej-mour Warms Up.
There was a lively scene in tho Board
l i] ervisors' chamber late yesterday
aiternoon.
The walls fairly shook with oratory,
and there was repartee enough ttiere to j
delight a uian laid up with the t;out. It ;
was all about the trouble which has
arisen between the county aud the man
agement of the local theatres, over the '
jiayment of licenses. It will bo remem
bered that the county has sued for somo
alleged delinquent licenses, and the J
theatrical folks, while denying that they |
owe anything, also want the license fixed j
by the county reduced forthe future, in
order that the theaters might opon per
manently—they claiming that the present !
license prohibits operation at a prolit.
General Tliomas J. Clunie, Major W.
A. Anderson, E. A. Crouch and .1. H.
Todd appeared before tbe board for tho
purpose of asking fot a reduction ol tno
county license on liie Metropolitan
Theater and Clunie Opera-house. Major
Anderson acted as spokesman. He pre
sented the petition which was shown to
the Trustees last Tuesday, signed by busi
: en, and asking that the license be
reduced. He also presented a resolution
to the same etlect adopted by the Keder- I
ated lraues. ["he heal theaters, he said, I
ware expensive to handle, and the pres
ent licenses meant tbat they would huve!
to lie run at a loss if at all. In all Euro
pean eilies, ho said, theaters were subsi
dized by the public. The latter recog
nized tliat amusements were necessary in
all cities. In no city in tiio United Stales
oi the si/c of Sacramento was such a high
ie demanded as is dove hero by both
city and connty. As it stands vow the
present management cannot and has not
run the theater at a prolit. On the cou
ti ary, in the past thoy had been
r; \ at a LOSS,
And in support of this statement the
Major read the affidavit of C. E. Klein
sorge, who keeps the theater books, show
ing tbat for several years j ast tiie theaters
had lost money. The board should tako
into consideration the enormous ex
pense. Tlie lioenses had all beeu paid since
the present management took charg .
Heeatise there was animosity in certain
quarters toward one member of the man
nt was ito reason why the officials
sn.mil prevent the people from having
i lents, in- said. A permanent stoei^
coin].any at the opera-house was conteut
i. but the man who was goiiii. to
undertake it had written Ihat he couldn't
stand tiio license.
Chairman Morrison wanted to know ,
what the management would suggest as
a proper license for any outsider who
siiould open a theater here.
Tne Major repliodjhat it should be in
proportion with tlie license asked for by
the petitioners.
At this juncture, Geueral Clunie asked
permission to say a lew words, and he'
soon waxed oratorical. lie said the '
"combination" in ihe theater manage- j
ment complained of was not an injury to j
the public, lt was simply a method o:\
tion adopted by the owners to save
themselves from loss. Previous to the
coalition both theaters lost heavily, for
i i • reason that they were cutting each
other's throats. What they proposed to
iii now was to run both theaters—the
( luiiie with a permanent stock company
al cheap prt es and the Metropolitan for
high-priced combinations. Tlie General j
said he had a right lo expect fairness ut
the hands of the people of .■sacrameuto.
Ho had always been tho friend ol the
city, he said, and cited as instances his
work, when a State Senator, in defeating
ebria bill, which, if adopted, would
hive ruined Saciamento; bis subscrip
tions toward Last I'ark, the Kiverside
. beautifying Capitol i'ark and other
similar actions, all of wiiich, he said, ■■ _\
him thousands of dollars. Still, he said.
he didn't suppose tliat when he applied
to the City Trustees shortly tor per
mission to substitute electricity lor gas
in tbe theaters that they would grant the
request because Mayor Steinman is inter- \
in the gas company. The theaters i
pay at the rate ot si jn ■_ month for &;ns. be
declared. and .he guessed this was too j
good a thing for tho Mayor to let go of.
WOULD EAT JtJBT I'll E SAME.
Continuing, (.enerai Clunie said he was
willing to sien an agreement that tho Su- I
perviaors should liave access to the thea
ter books at any and all times, so they i
i uld see how milch in.,m-y was liein"_'
made, if any, and he would forther agree
that as soon as the prohu exceeded 2 per
cent, per annum tlie iieouso should bo !
raised. "1 am not depending on tliese
is for a living,'' he said, "bnt !
have an interest Ln Sacramento au.l her
people, and 1 want them to have whal
tbey are clamoring for—good amuse
ments .v cheap rates. I can close up these
theaters and go away, and I'll oai just as
good beefsteaks as i eat now. 1 don't
think 1 am being treated fairly, gentle
men. Here, when 1 come back from the
ust, I nnd myself overwhelmed with
lawsuit* —unnecessary lawsuits, i have
lo defend all of tliese, and that's expen
peiisive, as you all know. A couple o:'
young lawyers here, who are not very
busy, evidently, have rushed into court
and branded me before the people as a
man who won't pay his bills, i don't
like it, gentlemen. Those young men
should have come to me or my agents
tirst, and thoy would have been .shown
the receipts proving that i.iy licenses
liave been paid. They have uot acted
rightiy in this matter."
M \"Mnt P. UEI'IIIs.
Arthur Seymour and E. Hartman, the
"two young lawyers" the General re
tltting in the lobby, and
countenances indicated they did not
- ' the thrusts made at them. Mr.
Seymour arose, and addressing the
board, said: "I'll answer all that wheu
the 11 enerai gets through."
"Why not answer it now, before I get
through?"asked Mr. Clunie.
Seymour toward the General,
and pointing his linger at htm, said:
"General, if you really desire it I'll teli
you and U'.e board, here, just how 1 called
mi your agi ut. Mr. Crouch, iv reference
to this matter, and I'll tell you, too, if you
■ it. just what Mr. Crouch said to
me about it.''
"«,o ahead and tell it," said Clunie.
"Don't keep anything back on mv ac
count, sir. I'm not afraid of anything
you might say. My life i^ an open" book.
Go ahead, now,don't keep anything back,
I say."
Chairman Morrison interrupted the
discussion at this juncture to teli > leneral
Ciunie that Messrs. Seymour and liar.
were simply the servants ol tie
board and were uol altogether responsi
ble for the law suits. They were em
ployed for the purpose of examining tne
county license books and ascertaining
who were i'uey were iv-
Ktrucfa ct ihe mouey if possible,
and ii they failed, to bring suits for the
money. The theater people were not the
only
. c, however, adhered to
tlie I- OOU r waa the cause of
a.i the trouble, and he charged the youug
,; dr and too hasty.
Tve knowu that young man since he
, child," he said. "1 knew bis daddy
before liim. and 1 never ex peoted that "
WHAI I i;u . it - .in.
"I'd like to reply to the General,"
interrupted Seymour, who was now
thoroughly aroused.
The Gene „ (fully gave way, and
I man proceeded: "A great deal
." he began, "a 1 out these
■v paid, and U
i were uncalled for. After being em-
I by tue board we m sot through the
books carefully and found thai since
.v baa bee
in for both theaters. 1 went to Mr.
Ji—the General's statement that 1
didu't to the eoutrary notwithstanding—
ami told him what I had ascertained frotn
an examination of the books, and told
him I would like to look at his receipts
in order to make comparisons. Mr.
Crouch, after saying that the theaters
owed nothing, told tne that they only '
paid hah rates—that it had all Let.v fixed
up: tii.it they should only pay half rates
tothe <i-3*and half rates" to the county.
Now, when I was about to go out. Mr.
Crouch said to me: '__.cc, here, Seymour,
if v taken me two years to lix this
thiiiK up, and I don't want you to butcher
it up.*"
"Startling disclosures, sir! startling
disclosures!" exclaimed (leneral Clunie.
"I cant'c help sir,'' replied Seym mr.
"You brought this on yourself. We have
shown your agenta and you all the len
:• 11 ■■>■ possible and have shown you all
iurtesy possible."
"I think so, too," responded the Gen
eral.
"Yes, and after your airents subjected
us and tho county to all the delays and
inconvenience possible, and wouid give j
us no satisfactory answers, we deemed it
proper to bring the suits iv order tliat the
conns mit-tit decide how much vuu
owed the uounty. Wo have found that
only one payment was made two years'
ago and that you liavo no', paid your
- s sines. Now, that's all 1 have to
say ior tbe present, but ! don't wisli you
to cast any reflections upon us."
rut. BJ__NKB__.II APOLOGIZES.
"1 want to apologize, sir," said oenoral
Clunie, rising and addressing the young
lawyer. "I did not know that I'rouch or
Todd had been consulted in thu matter at
ull. lam a gentleman, and never refuse
an apology when I have made a mis
take." Then turning to tbe Supervisors
tho General jsaid: "But, gentlemen. 1
wish to say a word or two more to ynu.
1 want to fjet t'nis thing straightened out,
1 > ant my agents to come up here and
meet with you, so that ali can go ovor the
I receipts and Looks together. 1 want
them to show you that lam honest in
tins matter and am not trying to deprive
tin county of anything that belongs to
it."
"You've had five months to do that in,
j General," remarked Chairman Morrison.
"Well, I didn't know anything about
jt then," said Mr. Clunie; "but I'm liere
now asking the privilege. I'm talking
ior myself now. I'm the fellow that's
been sued, you know. I think we can
all get together • and lix this thing up.
Mr. Seymour will help us, 1 know. Of
course he's a liltlo hot at me now, but hu
I is willing to do the square thing, I know."
"I only got hot because you cas* re
ilections upon me," said Seymour.
"Well, 1 apologized tor tiiat. What
mon. can I do?"
"You forgot that you were a young \
lawyor yourself ouce and was not very
busy."
"Ses, and I gue3s 1 would have
grabbed on to just such a little snap as
this, too."
Everybody laughed at these sallies.
Clunie and Seymour continued their duel I
of words tor yiiite a bit, but were getting :
better nal ured all the while.
Mr. Morrison did not think that tbe j
board shonld have anything to do with
tiio matter in iis present shape. It wus
tiio duty of Clunie and his adonis to
meet with Seymour and Hartman und
for the iat.er to report results to" tho:
board. "We don't want to go into court ;
ifweean belp it," he said, "because it
- .the peo lea whole lot of money.
But if you owe the county anything you
must pay it. that's all. It will not be
ion any other basis. 1 believe in
is and want to sco all kinds ol*
wholesome amusements for the people, '
lor tbey are beneficial. But 1 don't be- i
| lieve in allowing one mau to shut up the
wholo town."
.Mil Tn lit: OVERLOOKED.
Chairman Morrison brought the Gen
eral back to his engagement with the
board by informing him that the Super
visors had been entirely ignored by him
and Lis agenis with reference to the back
licenses -tbat nobody had ever appeared
beiore the board in connection with the
matter.
"Well, may be ihey haven't," said tho
i.eneial. "Lut I'm here now for inyseli.
I'm a pretty good follow for looking out
for myself you know. I'm here to talk
to you.''
"(Lad to see you," said the Chairman,!
nodding pleasantly.
"Thank you. i dad to see you all," was
the General's reply. Then, talking earn- i
estly, he asked tho board to appoint a j
committee to meet with him and his
agenta and sco if tliey could not come to
some agreement as to just how the ac
counts stood between the couuty aud the
theaters.
NOT A -MONOPOLY.
The General assured the Chairman that
the present theater management was not
a monopoly. A monopoly always raised ;
prices, but that had not been dove iv this I
| ease. (>n the contrary, it had furnished]
cheaper amusements than Sacramento j
overbad beforo. The General then went j
back to tho original request that the lv- !
ture license be reduced.
Mr. Morrison, however, declared that !
houses doing business with people that
owed them money usually desired tho
lack i'ilispaid liefore selling theui auy I
more goods. He thought the same tiling;
should apply in this ease—tho delinquent :
n ens, _s should be paid before there was
any talk about a reduction.
I. very body bewail to talk at onco. then,
and it was apparent thai a better feeling
existed between both sides. The i.enerai
appeiue,! to the board to lot iiim run the j
theater without loss, and Manager Todd
said that his bread and butter depended j
! upon tlie opening of tho theaters. Agent !
Crouch explained to the hoard tiiat the'
ihe did not bring his receipts and
a c .mils before the Supervisors was thai
he had never been asked to. Mr. Hart
iniin. the other "young lawyer," ex
plained that Todd had agreed "to address
the Supervisors, but when h.i did he
I talked about nothing but the desired re-
I ductiou, an I would not mention the de
limjuenoies. Major Anderson read his
j petition and liied it with the clerk, and
a so ::, ile v few more remarks. And so
! ie went on for some time—everybody said
som ithing.
diy .-supervisor Todd made a speech
; in lavor of reducing tbe licensee, and Su-
I pervisor Curtis indorsed Ins sentiments.
(.hairman Morrison said, however, that
ild '-ote lor no reduction uutil the
ueut licenses were paid,
r some further talk, however, all
i meet iv the chamber to
morrow, have the books and receipts
with them and setae the whole mat er of
delinquent licenses up amicably, if pos- ■
. Alter that tliey could talk about the ]
re tactions asked for.

CAPAY VALLEY!
The Earliest Fruit Land in the State
Equal in ill Respects to tlie Famous Yaca Talley, Which It Adjoins,
uisr_ppiH:cH:]DE:_N:TE:iD terms.
ONLY FOR FIVE YEARS AX 7 FER CENT.*U
Capay Valley is situated in Yolo County, about 90 miles by rail from San Francisco,
and is traversed in its entire length by the Woodland, Capay and Clear
Lake Railroad, the distance from Esparto to Rumsey being 21 miles.
The Capay Valley Land Company is offering the
most fertile lands in this beautiful valley upon terms which
enable the purchaser to pay for the land out of its own
product, viz: Interest only for five years at 7 per cent.
The only condition imposed is, that a reasonable pro
portion of the land purchased shall be planted to fruit
trees or vines. Land may be bought without this
condition on payment of 20 per cent, cash and re
maining 80 per cent, at the end of five years, with in
terest annually in advance, at 7 per cent. The various
tracts owned by the Capay Valley Land Company hnve
been subdivided into 10 and 20-acre lots, which _.\re for
sale at prices varying from S5O to Si 50 per acre. Simi
lar unimproved land in Vaca Valley has recently been
sold at $400 to $500 per acre.
These Capay Valley lands are under the most favor
able climatic conditions for the prosecution of profitable
fruit growing, and the locality has proved itself to be
one of the earliest in the State. The- grape crop of 1890
from the company's vineyard at Cashmere was picked,
dried and shipped to Chicago and Philadelphia before
the Fresno County grapes were ripe.
The railroad passes through all of the tracts owned by
the Capay Valley Land Company, thus insuring excel
lent shipping facilities; and land may now be purchased
in the immediate proximity of either of the following
stations: Capay, Cadenasso, Surrey, Guinda, Sauterne,
Cashmere or Rumsey.
At many of these places fine orchards of the choicest
and earliest varieties of peaches and apricots may already
be seen, and during the coming season considerable ad
ditional acreage will be planted out. One of the recent
sales made by the company was that of the Tancred
Tract, containing 600 acres, to a colony association.
This tract has been subdivided into forty holdings, all of
which will be planted to fruit trees this season.
The fine orchards on the Guinda Tract, where 400
acres have been sold, are especially worthy of mention,
and it is a significant fact that several of the blocks are
owned by successful Vaca Valiey fruit-growers, who ex
pect to make their earliest shipments from here.

And a vi-lveiy softness of the >kin is -
invariably obtained by those who use

Too much stress cannot be laid upon the great ad
vantage to the fruit-grower of being in early locality.
In most cases it makes the difference between success
and failure The industrious orchardist of Capay Valley
may rest assured that he will derive all the benefits gained
by the first fruit shipments of the season, and that 2c
acres of this rich land, when the trees are in bearing, will
yield a handsome and assured income.
The Capay Valley Land Company has an agent re
siding in the valley, whose duty it is to show the various
tracts to land seekers.
Four townsites have been laid out in different points
in the valley, viz: Esparto, Cadenasso, Guinda and
Rumsey. Town lots may now be purchased at reason
able prices and on easy terms.
The enterprising and flourishing town of Esparto is
situated at the lower end of the valley, and $125,000
worth of substantial buildings have already been erected,
including a fine four-story brick hotel, two large brick
blocks and waterworks, with pipes laid in the streets,
besides extensive warehouses and numerous residences.
The town has a postoffice. school-house and a weekly
paper, and the fine railroad depot contains telegraph
and express offices.
Postoffices have also been established at Guinda and
Rumsey. This latter place, situated at the head of the
valley, is the present terminus uf the railroad. The com
fortable little hotel makes excellent quarters for hunters
as well as land-seekers.
The advantages enjoyed by the settler in Capay Val
ley may be thus concisely summed up:
A soil of great fertility, yielding bountifully of every
crop.
A -iff. and climate which will ripen all kinds of fruit and
vegetables earlier than anywhere else in the State.
A dimate perfectly adapted to the curing of raisins and
drying of frnit, without the aid of artificial evaporators.
A location that is central and close to markets. Railroad
communication which enables shipments to be made
quickly and cheaply. Lands which-are sold cheaper and
on better terms than anywhere else in the State.
