ferendum of legislation to the people is
in vogue. The people will have the pow

The power of the State railroad commits
sioners has been increased. The counties
will be permitted to formulate charters
under which the county organization will
be adapted to local conditions. These
are the leading features in the great
transformation that has been wrought.
At the time of this writing, in the
forenoon it is not certain that woman
suffrage has been defeated Imperial
county, outside of Imperial, went about
two to one in favor of the women. In
that town, where the booze vote has been
concentrated, suffrage was defeated by
majority of six. Generally, the rural
vote has been in favor of woman suffrage,
while San Francisco and vicinity was
against it, and there still is hope that
the rural vote will overcome the major
ity in the bay district against suffrage.
