SUCCESSFUL AT POLLS

Los Angeles, Feb. 6.-The reform
element of Los Angeles won substan-
tial victory as result of the election,

ments to the city charter and the de-
feat of one Or two others which they

crate all public utilities and prohibit
ing the sale of a public utility owned
by the city except by a two-thirds vote

cilmen at large; providing for consoli-
dation of Los Angeles and adjoining

ment to extend the limit of the life of

PRESIDENT SENDS MESSAGE
TO CALIFORNIA LEGISLATORS

Washington, Feb. 9.-'The policy OF
the administration is to combine the
maximum of efficiency in achieving
the real object which the people OF the
Pacific slope have at heart, with the
minimum of friction and trouble, While
misguided men who advocate such &C.
tion as this against which l protest
are following policy which combines
the very minimum Of efficiency WIN
the maximum of insult and which,
while totally failing to achieve any
real result for good, yet might accom-
nlish an infinity Of harm. =
In this language, President Roose-
Welt, in a long telegram to Speaker
Stanton, of the California assembly,
set forth the government view OF the
japanese school bill. =,
The president states that the bill
gives Just cause for irritation and that
the government would be obliged i'm.
mediately to take action in the federal
courts to test such legislation, because
it is held to be clearly a violation OF
the treaty obligations of the United
States. The telegram to Speaker
Stanton was sent only after confer
ence with Senator Flint and Represen-
tative Kahn, Of California, and Frank
lin K. Lane, of the interstate com
MERGE commission.
After the conference at the White
House, Mr.. Lane said:
II have read the president state
ment on the Japanese question, and
think he is following the line Of policy
that will work out for the best interest
of the Pacific coast. This is not par
tisan question, but one involving a
great national policy, and l believe
that only the national government can
deal adequately with it. To my per-
sonal knowledge, the president has
been endeavoring for the last two
years to meet the demand of our peo-
pie in the most effective manner.
believe his policy has been a success
thus far. It demands longer test,
and state cooperation is necessary to
achieve the result we all desire.''

MESSAGE
MANY CHANGES IN STATE
INSTITUTIONS RECON-
MENDED.
He Would Move Chehalis Train.
ing School to Eastern Washing
ton and Use Chehalis Buildings
for Third Hospital for Insane.
Other Changes.

Lieut.. Gov Hay has sent to the leg
islature special message on the sub
ject of state institutions, the principal
recommendations ofw hich follow;
1 desire at this time to call your at
tention to the necessity, in my judg-
ment, of making some changes in the
recently submitted report and esti-
mates of the state board of control,
and the ACCESSIBILITY of making certain
changes in the administration and man
agement of several of our state institu-
tions.
1. I recommend that the state train
ing school at Chehalis be removed to
one of the irrigated districts of East
ern Washington.
2. That instead Of increasing the
buildings of the Western Washington
hospital for insane at Fort Steilacoom,
the buildings of the state training
school at Chehalis be used as an asy-
lum
8. That the old soldiers of the state
soldiers home at Orting be removed to
the veterans home at Port Orchard,
thus bringing the two homes in the one
institution.
4. That the inmates of the institu-
ton for feeble minded at Medical Lake
be removed to the present state SOL
diers' home at Orting.
5. That the buildings now being
used at the state institution for feeble
minded at Medical Lake be added to
and become a part of the Eastern
Washington asylum. These buildings
could be used for convalescent patients.
I feel that there is very little chance
of properly expanding the state train
ing school where it is now located, but
that by removing it to one of the irri-
gated districts of Eastern Washington
and establishing new school, the pu-
pills can be much better cared for and
at much less expense to the state
The remainder of the message is de-
voted to recommendations for appro-
priations for the various state institu-
lions and to dscsiusion of the merits
of the above recommendations. The
lieutenant governor points out the ne
cessity for a new hospital for the in
sane Or an increase in the size of pres
ent hospitals. These institutions have
now reached such point that further
enlargement is against what has been
considered the limit of economical and
beneficial management.
