The Mount Vernon Annexation Association has
issued another circular in advocacy OF the move
mcnt which has given the Observation-Disclosures an
opportunity TO critcisc the points raised with good
effect It dWells almost wholly upon a comparison
of the growth of the Twcnty-thirl and twenty
fourth wards OF N"v-York with that Of Mount
Vernon one of those who Is opposed to ann"Xa-
ton and is prominent member OF the Home
League said: THE latest effort OF the Ann"Xa-

the Annexed District 1t IS generally accepted

Importance since tho increased population IS of
much better class than that I'm III" Annexed DIS

also lays much str" upon the assessed valuation OF
property. saying that that of the Annexed District
has increased Ia per cent in the came number OF
years while that of Mount Vernon has increased
only 10 per cont. I don't think it can be denied
that NeN-YorkS practice in those many years OF
