At the banquet held on the conclusion ofthe Paris-Bordeaux automobile race -back in 1896, one of the speakers prephe- sied that at some future date the speed to be attained by a car would not be 15 but 50 miifes an hour, And at this, it is re- corded that one of the leading manufactur- ers present whispered to the chairman that it was unfortunate that there should al- ways be one person who made an ass of himself! THE BOND ELECTION Afte: various explanations, which turned out to be wrong, regarding the | bond election to be held on September a | DEFINITE information has now been ob- tained about the number of freeholders that MUST vote to make the election legal. The Citizen, in common with hun- dreds of Key Westers, including at least one lawyer, was under a misapprehension regarding the majority of votes that must be east to approve the proposed bonds. We were informed that the majority must be of all freeholders in the county, but {| such is not the case. Here is the correct | | information on that point: Using the same basic figure of 1,000 that The Citizen used before, 501 votes must be cast to approve the bonds, but the difference is this: all those votes need not be in favor-of issuing the bonds. Briefly, assuming that there are 1,000 j freeholders in Monroe county, at least 501 of them must participate in the election to make it valid, and a majority of that 501 | must be cast in favor of the bonds to adopt | them. But if only 500 votes are east, and the entire 500 favor the bonds, the election is lost because a majority of freeholders did not go to the polls. A majority must vote, 501 or more, and a majority of that majority, 251 or! more, must favor the bonds to make the election a success. Scores of Key Westers have ‘already volunteered to take part in the campaign that will be waged to see to it that far more than a majority of freeholders go to the polls, feeling assured that if a majority votes there will be a prepondering ma- jority of the first majority that will favor the bonds. Indeed, The Citizen is unable to determine how a single resident of | Monroe county, unless he is against the county’s interests, can vote against the is- suing of the bonds. Freeholders should bear in mind that the issuing of bonds will not increase taxa- tion one cent; will not be a lien on any real estate in the county. except the right of way for the proposed bridges, and that the payment of interest.on the bonds and the eventual liquidation. of them are “guaranteed. solely from talls and other nileratinns of the pridges. Finally, let. us all join in the move- ment to get out every possible voter to participate in the election to be held on September ‘18. AMERICAN HORSES During the period of Indian wars in the West, the redskins generally had good | horses and ponies, which they rode splen- didly and often successfully in their com- bats with United States troopers sent to quell their many uprisings in the years fol- lowing the Civil War. It-is natural to assume that the Indians | always had houses, but sueh is not the case, The Indian got his first) horses from the white men, for at the time of the discovery %f America this continent was _horseless, and all the horses which exist, here today are descendants of animals broyght over by ‘Europeans. Going back to the Ice Age, however, ‘fossil remains show that many horses roam- ed over both North and South America. In size and appearance they were very much like the ordinary horses of the present. How they came to disappear centuries ago is an unexplained mystery. Going back. still farther, remains of many varieties. of primitive horses have been found, some: not larger than a shep- herd dog, with three and even four toes. The earliest of little horses had five toes, but no remains of these have been fo@nd on this continent so far, although many have been discovered in the eastcrn hemi- sphere. The earliest horses were no larger than a fox, and the eyes of some of these early breeds were set far down on the head, midway between the ears and the | nose. present are descendents of the lowly five- toed “critters” of the past.

SOME KIND OF “BREAKS” (Ry Axsociated Press) WASHINGTON, Aug. | There are very definite reasons} for this republican eampaign of| silence which prevails at the aia | ent time. : i Everett Sanders, chairman of the Republican National commit- tee, attempted at the close of the special session of congress to con- eries of political revival] meetings, but there came reports 24.—| | fers objected strongly to his: activity. They expressed themselves as | believing that this is no time for anything like thet, for the Tagson;) standing issues at the present. | At any rate, Sanders soon ealled, ‘off his conferences and made a! trip to Europe. Watching And Waiting The strategy of the G. O. P. ful waiting. They are waiting for \ the breaks. | Political precedents indicate to them that they will recapture some ' of the;seats in the house that they; ‘lost in the Roosevelt landslide of j last year, Some of them feel per- haps that the hope of re- capturing control of the house soon is a forlon one, but that erough will return to the fold to give them something to work on. Meanwhile thoughts of — the/ | presidential campaign in 1936 or conflicting personal political ambi- ‘tions take secondary places, Poli- j tical parties usually return to power by trying first to gain con- trol of one of the houses of con- gress. The Penrose Plan . The late Senator Penrose of Pennsylvania is evedited with hav- ing said back ‘in 1912, when told that the republican party’s deeci- sion to. renominate: President Taft would result in a split and wreek- lage off election day: ‘What of it/ so long as we control the wreck- age?” Eight years later Penrose and the Old Guard republicans were’ ; in complete political control of the } country again, And that, whether four, eight or 12 years. was what yEoneeee had in mind. Breaks Coming—They Hope ; Political issues will begin to be elarified as soon as congress gets hack to Washington next January. \ It will be then that permanent leg- lislation, embracing the workable parts of recovery machinery set up jin the special session, must be j Written into law. Republicans are — hoping that there is where they will begin to iget the breaks, politically speak- ling. Until then they are likely to i keep silent. le oe “Today In History | eeeecccsseneeneveceseeoe Pompeii and Herculaneum, destroyed by eruption of Vesuvius. ~Massacre of St. Bartho- j ton Paris, followed directly by ja religious war. j ah Mt, i 1814—Capitol, Treasury build- jing and White House burned dow: j by the British in a PEPE PT OPT es 1857— Seaimabig of the finan- cial panic which culminated in an lalmost entire suspension of the eae the country over. | eoccceee ecencaeseees Fada s Horoscope Although. in case the major as pects are not favorable, the per- ison born today will be a promis-f jing experimentalist and an ac-| complizhed critic, there will be a [tendency to a complaining nature, 'probably dissatisfied with its achievements.
