81 PER CENT To DECIDE
AGRICULTURAL PARK
Council Demands Majority Peti-
ton of Contestants in Con-
demnation Question

Signatures of property owners in the
assessment district for the condemna-
tion of land for Agricultural park will
be at a premium now, for the city
council has asked petitioners and
protestants to get 81 per cent petitions.
As 1t is mathematically impossible for
both sides to get 81 per cent petitions
the one that presents such petition
first will win.
The difficulty is over the condemna.
ton of the strip on the south side OF
the park owned by the Huntington in
terests. There are about thirteen acres
of land in this strip and it Is esti-
mated that 1t will cost $4,000 to con-
denim 1t and add it to the park. These
figures were given the council yester-
day by expert real estate men. AT
this price the cost for each forty-hVe-
foot lot in the assessment district
would be only $1.S5.
From representations made to the
council yesterday it appears that all
the Improvement associations in the
southwestern part of the city are in
favor of condemning this land ana
adding II to the park. In fact, seven
of these improvement associations nave
formed a federation for the express
purpose of bringing this about.
Petitioners who favor the condemna-
tion told the council yesterday that
signatures to the protest against 1t
had been secured by representations
that the strip of land would cost
81 900, 900 and that some of the assess
ments would be'as high as $3.50 a lot

HALF OF $7800,OO0 TAX
LEVY NOW BEING PAID
Citizens Crowd the Spring Street
Tax Collectors Office

The receipts Of the second day of the
collection of the taxes of Los Ange-
les county for 1910-1911 were $50, ,319.35,
exceeding by nearly $4,000 the amount
collected the first day, which was $16,-
$500.
The amount taken in at the office Of
w. Q. Welch, county tax collector, at
121 North Spring street, yesterday, the
second day of this year when taxes are
due and payable, was slightly less than
that received the first day of last year,
when the receipts were O,344.0S.
All day yesterday the office was
crowded with citizens anxious to settle
their tax bills, and II is expected that
the payments gradually will increase
as one day succeeds another and the
payers tell their neighbors of the need
of settling their accounts with the
county.
The total tax levy for the coming
year is in excess of $7,S00,000, more than
one-half of which is payable before the
first Monday in November, at which
they will become delinquent. The
reason the amount to be received this
fall is more than half Of the total is
that the tax upon personal property
must be paid at once, while that upon
real property is payable in two INSTALL
ments, the second being due in March,
1911.
The separate totals of personal and
real taxes are not obtainable, 50 far as
the present collection has gone, owing
to the extreme amount of labor re-
quired, but the grand total for the hrst
two days is $37,0l7.44.
The office will not be open today, as
this is Discovery day, but the collection
will be resumed tomorrow.

WOMEN STORM COUNCIL
IN GARBAGE QUESTION
Contractor Declares He Has Not
Chosen Loading Site

Nearly 100 women appeared before
the city council yesterday to protest
against Charles Alexander establishing
a garbage loading station on the Co.
vina line, east of Soto street. Mrs. d.
NJ. Corwin led the women, who be-
lieved they were battling for their
homes. She declared that if the coun-
Gil did not do something to prohibit the
loading station the whole territory
formerly known as the Ninth ward,
would take it into the courts. A petit
ton numerously signed, protesting
against the proposed loading station,
was filed for the councils considera-
ton.
H. ]. Goudge, attorney for Alexander,
declared that the protestants were un-
duly alarmed because Mr.. Alexander
had not selected the point objected to
as a loading station, nor had he Sc
Iected any other point in the city.
Mr.. Goudge repeated the proposal he
has made to the city council before,
that the council select a site for the
garbage loading station and the con-
tractor would be willing to place it
there. He also said Alexander was
ready and willing to abrogate the con-
tract on terms that would protect him
self If the council felt that was the
best method to pursue.
The matter was referred to the public
welfare committee, where II will be
threshed out again.

WHITE ELEPHANT VOTING
MACHINES TO BE MOVED
SO Extravagances Go to Temple
Block Basement

Every once in while the municipal
white elephant, those fifty-eight vot
ing machines, turns over in its sleep
and then the city has to pay. some
more money.
But the expenditure on the machines
authorized yesterday by the city coun-
Gil is believed to be the last and will
eventually save the city money.
The council yesterday authorized the
city clerk to have the machines re-
moved from 325 New High street,
where they have been in storage for
years, and transferred to the basement
of the Temple block, which the city
owns. While 1t will cost money to
move the machines, the city is now
paying $50 a month for the space they
occupy in storage and nothing will
have to be paid when they are placed
in the Temple block.
These machines we're one OF the

the makers at a price very much
lower than they were bought for, but
the manufacturers have replied they
are in the business of selling machines
and not buying them.
