HOUGHTON'S VOTE
Balloting in the old Sixth ward. the
home of Doc Houghton, was very
heavy, and Houghton's personal follow
ing came to his rescue early in the day,
rounding up every available vote. he
did not make the showing in this ward,
however, that his friends predicted,
and on the other hand the Good Gov
ernment candidates secured heavier
vote there than anyone had hoped for
The henchmen of the power compa-
MES were extremely ubiquitous. 1t was
estimated that aside from the expenses
of election day, the power companies
expended more than 100000 to defeat
the lighting rate ordinance. What et-
feet their work in this direction would
have on the councilmanic vote, or the
business license ordinance, of course
remained largely problematical until
the final returns were in; but from
statements of various voters 1t seemed
apparent that those who were against
the lighting rate ordinance were in
most instances also against the pusl-
ness license ordinance and the Good
Government candidates, indicating that
the corporation influence was opposing
everything that resembled better gov
ernment.
Discussing the fight yesterday after
noon, one of the officials of the Good
Government organization said:
IN THE OPEN
1.-THE corporations are for once fight
ing in the open. They have made no
attempt to conceal the fact that they
have hundreds of paid workers in the
field, that they have organized polltl-
cal machine to fight us at this election
and that they have paid out vast sums
of money to get out heavy vote In d
number Of doubtful precincts.
"It is literally a raid on the rights
of our citizens. The corporations are
brazenly arrayed against the very
people who, by their votes, will decide
whether or not the corporations or the
Good Government forces are to rule
Los Angeles. They have organized not
| only against the lighting rate or
dinance, but also against Stewart and
Whiffen, because these corporations
know that with the municipal owner
ship of electric lighting plants assured,
and with the expenditure of $60,OOOOOO
| authorized for the development OF our
water supply, municipal power plants,
harbor. docks, warehouses, street work
and highway Improvements, in Whlch
these corporations will have many In
terests involved, 1t Is of vital impor-
| tance for them to place men in the
city council, men on whom they can
| reIy when action Is proposed relative
| to the expenditure of this money, the
awarding of contracts and the adop-
| tion of plans.

then he went away relieved.
A verv smart LAWYER some time
since had the misfortune To lose a
case for a client who had every rea-
son 10 expect success. The client. a
plain old farmer, was astounded BY
the long bill Of costs and, fastening
TO the lawyers office, said, Il

answered the lawyer, "but, you see,
when brought it up there before
the judges they said il was a quo

it was as bad as that" replied the
old farmer, Il don't wonder we lost
it." And he paid the costs and a
big fee besides without another

CORNELL, WINS THE
HONORS ON WATER

Boston, Mass. May 31.-In choppy
water. 16 Cornell ,qarsmen swept all
honors on Charles river yesterday. The
varsity crew defeated Harvard by
handsome length while the freshmen
boat outciassed the Crimson eight by
six lengths.
1t was COrneI's short, choppy stroke
that proved superior to Harvard's long,
rhythmic swing. The Harvard oarsmen
seemed to have plenty of power. but for
some reason Stroke Cutler was content
with an even 80 from start to finish,
and although this held Cornell the first
mile in rough water, in the last half of
the race COrnell's swift paddles and
numerous spurts drove its shells stead
lily away and there was a bit of open
water between the boats as they darted
across the line.

that Is ever eXcusable.
Mackey insisted upon Raging with

turned TO the grand stand and invited

other off Of the field because they pro-

work was most disappointing to his
friends who have, been tOUting the Ben

Rumsey Pitched Good Game.
Rumsey arrived in his nine innings.
It was the first fair chance this pitcher
has had and he got away with MS in

first three innings he got increased
confidence and had even old DaIrymple
guessing as to what was on his balls
when they sung past the plate. His
only weakness was an inclination to
walk the first man up which is probably
the result of nervousness and can be
overcome. Two of the three runs ma e
by Bisbee started in this way.
Doan was sent back in for BiSbee
and got away even better than he did
on Sunday. That little chap has some
thing on his offerings which fools the
best of the batters. He uses the sa-
Iva ball frequently, but his break bah /.
