Following Interior Secretary Garfield's decision to grant rights of way and reservoir sites at Lake Eleanor and Hetch Hetchy, the city held a special election to ratify public support for the acquisition of these lands and water rights and to authorize a bonded debt of $600,000 for this purpose. San Francisco voters approved the Tuolumne supply and the bonds by a considerable margin. A bit rubbed, tanned and soiled, old vertical crease where folded for mailing, a very good copy. (#166297).
