The rei ord stands as an example to every niunicipalitr iu the United States.

The pamphlet is for the information voters and for the use of campaign speakers.

The guiding stars of tbe good fortune have been sagacity.

The direct praise in the first instance must go to the members of th Board of Estimate and Apportionment, and secondly, to those meu who ntyitiaged the departments. The former were the unanimous choice of the electors, and they sanctioned or disapproved of every vital act of the entire administration. The Board of Aldermen, stripped of all important power by the Charier and the heads of the departments, had but little (hildreii nho breathed through the noa too out uf thiee had a had maik and uere put down ns hot studying or as being stupid at their books.
