"Surely our city fathers have never walked the length and breadth of this city, or they never could have appointed one market place for all the sons and daughters of its fast growing population.... "If the market laws were abolished, (and they might as well be) provisions would be brought to every door, and would cost the producer less time, and the consumer less money." 1064 - DTD Apr. 2:2/3 The second anti-market law meeting was held in the court house, Professor Brainard presiding. Nine candidates for city offices were nominated. The obnoxious features of the market law were reported by the committee chairman, W.

The law forces citizens to travel great distances in order to buy their food unless they buy from licensed hucksters whose prices are much higher than the market.
