2. All acts and parts of acts inconsistent with the provisions of this act are hereby repealed and this act shall take effect immediately; provided, however, that no bonds shall be issued in any county pursuant to this act until the said act shall be accepted by the voters of said county by a majority of the votes cast for or against the same at the next election, whether general, municipal or special, on a day when the people of all the county qualified to vote are authorized to vote for local officers; and it shall be the duty of the county clerk at least ten days before any such election to give public notice by publication, in two or more newspapers published and circulating in said county, that such submission will be made, stating briefly the question to be submitted, as herein provided, and it shall be the duty of the said county clerk to provide ballots sufficient in quantity for the legal voters of the said county, not less than three to each legal voter as the number of voters appears by the last preceding election, and make distribution thereof, as far as practicable, in the manner provided by law for the distribution of other ballots at such election; every such ballot shall contain either the words “for further park bonds” or “against further park bonds” and an equal number of each kind of ballots shall be so printed and distributed; and the legal voters of said county may at such election decide upon acceptance or rejection of this act by the use of such ballots; such ballots shall be cast at such election separate and distinct from other ballots used at such election, and shall not, except as herein provided, be regulated by the laws regulating ballots used in the election of public officers; such ballots however, shall be deposited when offered, without being inclosed in an envelope, by any legal voter, in the ballot-boxes used at such election for the election of public officers; and all ballots so cast for or against this act shall be counted and the result thereof returned by the election officers holding such election as herein provided, and the acceptance or rejection of this act shall be determined by the result of such election, and if there shall be found on a canvass of all the votes cast, to be made as herein provided, a majority of ballots in favor of this act, then this act, but not otherwise, shall take effect immediately in such county; the return and certificate of the result of the votes cast in every election district or voting precinct in such county for and against the acceptance of this act shall be filed forthwith after the close of the said election by the officers conducting the same, with the clerk of the county wherein such election is held, and it shall be the duty of such clerk to tabulate the said returns and canvass the votes so cast in all the election districts in said county and certify upon such tabulated statement the number of votes cast for the acceptance of this act, and the number of votes cast against the acceptance of this act, and he shall file such tabulated statement with his certificate thereon in his office, there to remain of record.
