", and again without alternative, call ed the meeting. This was the meeting held on Monday.
 On the eve of this meeting three circulars, all more or less caustically written messages to the voters, were distributed throughout the city. The people became aroused. The women voters began to take more interest. One of the circulars was signed: "The Mayor and a Majority of the Common Council,p and urged that the people vote No" The other two circulars were, presumably, issued by the com mittee of citizens. although unsigned, and urged the voters to vote "Yes." " The third circular was in answer to the only circular issued by the mayor and council members and was a severe criticism of that circular. This was additional to the factors already stat ed as determining the size of the vote.
 The polls were open from 9 a. m. to 5 D. m. on Monday, 1t was not long after the polls closed that the "No' vote was counted and 1t at once became apparent that the No" vote was de- feated Mayor Richard announced the result of the ballot. He said: T de- clare the "Yes" vote carried, subject to the legality of it."
