day indicate the defeat of the single
tax amendments TO the city charter
at yesterdays election by big ma
jor;ty. The measures require three
films vote TO carry. These precincts
give 2.7S6 against the amendments
and $50 for them. The single takers
conceded their defeat and declared
shat the multiplicity of propositions

platform, was elected mayor over
Hiram c. Gill, open town" candidate
by about l 800. Cotterill took no part
in the campaign for the single tax
amendments. Gill was recalled a
year ago when the women became
active in the campaign against an
open town." The election of Cot
terill is regarded as another victory
for the women voters, who fought
Gill to a finish.
The defeat OF the single tax amend
ments Is laid TO the Dltter ngnt maze
against them by property owners and

The complete vote of yesterdays
erection will not be known until late
tonight or tomorrow Owing TO the
numerous propositions on the ballot,
the counting is very slow, except on
the head OF the ticket.
Extraordinary interest was taken
in the election because 1t was the first
