election has settled the matter. The
next thing 10 do Will be to offer the
franchise for sale to the highest bidder.
Ralph McLeran: The people do not
realize the Importance or necessity of
getting out a special bond elections to
protect their own interest. That sec
ton of the city through which the
Geary street road runs is badly in need
of transportation. 1t was built up
after the fire and is being rapidly built
up now. and the residents are demand
ing transportation. The board of SUI
pervisors has endeavored to relieve the
condition, by submitting the question
OF bonding the city to build a modern
road. The cost of a special election is
approximately $4,000 and there is
some question in my mind as to Wheth-
er il is advisable TO sail another special
election in vie wof the project having
been defeated on three separate oc-
casions. 1t seems to me that if the
proposition was to be submitted again
it should be put on the ballot by a
petition signed by the requisite number
of voters as provided for in the char
ter. Upon the failure of the voters to
call for another election for the issu-
ance of bonds. il would then be the
duty of the board of supervisors to
take sucn steps as are necessary and
within their power to give the residents
Of San Francisco that transportation
which is of such vital Importance to
all sections of the city.
Charles A. MurdOck: I am inclined
to think II should be submitted again
on account of the vote having been so
close to the necessary two-thirds.
WHAT THE PEOPLE WANT
Daniel c. Murphy. The vote showed
that the people are earnestly in ia
vor of municipal ownership. It was
a short campaign, but it brought out
a handsome majority, and in view of
that fact, the resubmission of the cues
ton would be justifiable. Whether it
should be submitted before the general
election l am not now prepared to say:
but certainly ii should be resubmitted
before the road is put up for sale to
private ownership. The city is get
ting approximately $1,000 month from
the road and the service is reason
ably good Probably resubnission
should be delayed until after the gen
eral election, when AL the issues that
would be injected into the fight have
been disposed of Then we would prob
ably win the fight.

nit myself as to the question of resub
