A Light Vote Nearly All One Way.
The Result by Precincts.
The school bond election passed off
very quietly yesterday and at no time
was there line formed at any of the
polling places. The people generally
seemed to have lost interest in elections,
and as there " ere few workers in the
field either for or against the bonds,
there was no activity on the streets. In
the morning there was more opposition
to the bonds than at any other time. At
several places we're to be found individ-
uals who were talking against the bonds.
The only reason they had was that the
sewer bonds had been defeated, and as
the people did not want improvements in
the way of sewers, they wanted the
school bonds defeated. They said they
were working to "spite" those who were
against public improvement, and in
some instances they managed to poll
quite q number of votes. It
was stated last night that
the only votes against the bonds were
those cast for the above reason. During
the afternoon the opposition to the bonds
gave way, and the "spite" workers de.
parted. After this, however, the voting
was lighter than ever. The rain came
on, and from O'Clock until the polls
closed not more than one-tenth of the
total vote was cast. There was no trouble
at any of the precincts, and the police
men found that time hung heavy on their
hands. The count was completed within
an hour of the time the polls closed, and
the result showed that the bonds had
carried bV a largo naiorifv
The result of the count was as follows !:

Friday at 5 o'clock, indictments were
handed to Clerk Dunsmoor by Judge
Cheney with instructions that bench
warrants be issued for the arrest of four
persons charged with crime. At fifteen
minutes past five these warrants were
handed to the Sheriff, or rather to his
deputies, Mr.. Aguirre being absent at
the time. By 9 o'clock three of the
persons indicted were in jail, two OF
them in the County Jail of Los Angeles,
and one of them in the City Prison of
San Francisco, having been arrested on
telegram to the Chief of Police of that
city. The fourth man had been hunted
to ground and the house where he was

fore, and there is no reason why it should
not be. A successful fair is certainly one
of the best schemes that can be devised
to advertise locality, and out of the
abundance of this most favored land of
earth, an exhibition can be gotten up
that should excel anything of tie kind in
the State. The exhibition last year was
a creditsble affair and we'll attended.
With the experience of former seasons,
our exhibitors can and will do better,
and we feel justified in promising visi-
tors from abroad, greater attractions than
ever before.
The following gentlemen are the

piping water to the land claimed by
them. understand that they have
lately sold their land for 10000. This
is land which cost 81. % per acre, and
which, after an expenditure of $40 per
acre to get water on it, sold for $50 per
acre-rather good profit, and an in
vestment that could commend itself to
any careful business man. But when it
costs private individual $40 Der acre
to irrigate land, the Government could
do it for 81 or less per acre, because the
Government would deal with larger
tracts.
About four years ago some gentlemen
entered desert land and began develop
ing water in Cottonwood canon, situated
in township 10 north, of range Is west.
l paid visit to the ditch when the
water was turned into it, and it was q
sight to make the heart glad. There
could not have been less than
l, 200 inches of water flowing in the
ditch, and where water was taken out
and put upon experimental crops the
effect was wonderful. But all this came
to naught, for in the summer season the
water ceased to flow and the crops died.
Now, there was no question of the
quantity of water, because it was
superabundant in the winter season,
and there was no question of its ef-
fects on the crops. 1t was simply
QUESTION OF STORAGE
And reservoirs could have been built, and
the water saved and brought into use
when needed, but the funds of the COM
pany gave out, and the lands reverted to
the Government. In my judgment, q
reservoir could be constructed to store up
the water flowing in that cafion, and, by
using it economically, supply sufficient
for the irrigation of 700 acres of land
saved.
In township II north, of range IA west,
eighteen sections of desert land have
been entered, and an effort made to get
water out of Oak creek with which to
irrigate this land. The time al
lowed by law for reclamation has
expired, and the gentlemen making
these entries are today asking
the Government for an extension
of time of one year in which
to comply with the law. If the Govern.
ment had this work in hand it could
BUILD DAM
And reservoir, catch the water of Oak
creek and reclaim 100 sections of land in
tbUp LILO OONOTuu0ut pTIC0
of so so per acre, the United States
would receive 100000, the land would
be worth 100000, and the country
would be that much benefited.
The map which present to you care
fully defines the desert area. 1t also
shows the mountain ranges surrounding
these desert lands. In those mountains
are innumersble cafions capable of being
made reservoirs, and through them are
thousands of acres of lands, now worth
less, that with water would be of great
value.
don't think 1 am extravagant in
saying that in this district there are
4 900 900 acres of land which can be
reclaimed without extraordinary ex-
pense, and the people will cheerfully
pay the Government $10,00O,O00 for
these lands. The matter resolves itself
into pure business proposition. Can
the Government afford to expend st, ,00O,-
