The advocates of municipal ownership
carried the day yesterday in the election
to authorize the Issuance OF sloe.Vuo III
bonds for the construction and equipment
of municipal electric light plant
The vote was confined to property own
ing taxpayers who are also qualified voters
under the general election law. loli Of
whom exercised the right of franchise,
sO7 OF these voting for the Issuance OF the
bonds and 4o7 against. giving majority OF
600 votes for the proposition.
At the last election on the same propo-
sition, held during the Rice anmlnisira-
ton, the total vote was 1898 and the
majority in favor of the proposition was
i75. In the first election the First aud
Fifth wards voted against the proposi-
ton.
In yesterdays election the First and
Sixth wards gave maiorities against issu-
ance OF the bonds.
The Sixth ward is the one in which
Alderman Halverton resides and his OPP
position to the proposition may in some
measure account for the vote in that
ward.
One noticeable feature of the election
was that the colored taxpayers voted al
most solidly against the bond issue their
reason for 1t, when asked, was that they
