prescribes the method Of procedure for
improving streets.
The total vote for and against each OF
the amendments was q follows:

Such a small vote was cast upon the
charter amendments that few people ex-
pressed doubt whether they had carried,
rs the provision Of the charter relating to
amendments says.
And IT, at such election, = majority OF
all the lawful voters voting thereot shall
BIZ their votes. ratify any such amend
nens so submitted, the same shall there
by become part OF this charter" etc.
The question seemed to be whether the
majority of votes means a majority OF all
votes cast or a majority OF the votes cast
for and against the amendments.
In order TO set at rest any doubt that
might remain. Posr-fErELLIGExeEn re-
porter yesterday asked Corporation Coun-
sci Donworth to state his version OF this
provision.
There Is no question. " replied Mr.. Dom
worth, "but that il each Amendments re-
ceiyes more votes for than against il, the
amendment is carried. Ii. for instance,
only one vote WAS cast for an amendment
and none against IL that would carry the
amendment. This is a matter that has
been thoroughly settled in the case Of
Wiesen,hal vs.. Denny. WASH, i3S, in
which IL says: The constitution plainly
declares that If majority of the qualified
electors voting thereon ratfy the proposed
charter it shall become the charter Of the
city,"
Those who consider the charter amend
ment not carried rely upon the provision
OF the charter which says an amendment
is adopted at an election by . majority OF
the voters voting ''thereat," bur even il
that mean. a majority Of the highest vote
on any person or question 1t would stili be
subject To the mandate of the constitution.

THE LEAGUE WILL STILL LIVE.
Citisens Will Continue Organization to
Promote Municipal Reform.


Promote Municipal Reform.
Prominent members OF the Municipal
League of Seattle assert that that orsani-
cation has not been killed By the over
whelming defeat il met on Tuesday. but
that il will continue TO agtate the gues-
ton of municipal reform and work for
the following objects: To separate the
administration Of municipal affairs from
party politics; to secure amendments at
the earliest possible moment to the city
charter creating one legislative house,
clothing the mayor with full executive
authority and responsibility; aboIishing
useless boards, commissions and offices;
to vigilantly watch over, criticize, APP
prove or condemn from time to time the
administration Of municipal. affairs. and
TO advise from time TO time by way of
petition or rcmoustrance the municipal
authorities touching the welfare of the
city, and generally TO devise aud discus,
legislative reform in municipal govern
ment
A short constitution has been adopted,
providing that all persons identified with
the present movement tor municipal re-
form who shall sign the roll of member
ship before the election of permanent
officers shall be deemed charter members.
The officers will consist of a president and
secretary and such other officers and CON-
mittees as the bylaws shall prescribe. and
the annual meeting shall be held on the
third Saturday of March in each year.
On Saturday evening. March II, therefore,
a meeting will be held for the purpose of
electing officers and adopting bylaws. 1t
is also the intention of the league to ally
itself with the National Municipal League.

ers-Eighth the Hammer Ward.
In the hastily prepared account of
Tuesdays election published yesterday it
was impossible To do justice to al, that
band of noble Republican workers who
achieved such splendid victory. The
name Of Richard Owens was erroneousiy
given as working for the Republicans in
the Fourth precinct OF the Second ward,
when in fact he was a Democratic worker.
Those stationed at the polling booth dur
ing the day were G. y. Evans. III. A..
Chadwick and George Somerindyke.
The Eighth ward Republicans claim
tina, for downright loyalty their district
should be given the Republican banner
To substantiate their claim they point to
the fact that a. the last city election, IN
March, is92. the Eighth ward gave Leary.
Rep, a plurality of six. being the only
ward in the city that did even that well
for the Republicans az shat election. On
Tuesday II rolled up "a majority over all
for Phelps of 10 the largest of all the
ward majoriiiss.
The Republican organization was
very effective in the Eighth ward. Angus
". Young was the central committeeman.
james II. Taylor was the ward captain.
and the precincts were looked after by
hosts of Republicans. but especially by
the following organized forces:

He has surrounded himself this season
