THE tnking fact connection
with the library bonda, which
mm Am f m rmmA hfm trt
voters in the primary of April 20,
U that a failure to vote on the bonds
is equivalent to a vote against them.
A 60 per cent vote of all votes cast
is required to carry the bonds. If it
were rfnly 60 per cent of votes on
that particular proposition, they
would doubtless carry, because sen
timent for them seems quite unani
mous. But there is the careless vot
er, who does not persevere down a
Ion ballot He may cast a vote for
Jovemor, or for his preferred presi
ential candidate, ana hasten on his
way.. Such an elector has, through
carelessness, cast his strength
against the library bonds. This is a
topic of discussion among women
this week. They are warning their
friends and it is probable that all
will be fortified on the point be
fore next Tuesday. Women may
vote on the bonds.
