"I have said that my program is not

any kind. 1t is simply Americanism.
If this platform is not Americanism,
then common honesty is no longer n
measure of American morals. If this
platfrom is not Americanism, then a
free ballot and a fair count is no longer
the basis of our American government.
If this platform is not Americanism,
then independence, equality and oppor-
tunity have ceased to be American
ideals. Then Jefferson's teachings
have been forgotten, and Lincoln's la
Dor was in vain.''

Only few years ago, when consolida-
ton made the Greater New York, the
territory now known as the Borough of
the Bronx was to most of the inhabit-
ans Of the metropolis a terra incognita, a
tel : tory of scattered communities with
no interests in common, with an aggre-
gate population of between $4,000 and
10000. says the Newark DAILY Adyer-
tiser'' 1t has grown in population since
then threefold. The Bronx now contains
271, 900 people, knit together by ties OF
mutual interest, an integral part of the
great metropolis, fuHsiof fine residences,
business houses, handsome buildings,
miles of well-paved streets and other
public works, in shodt, all the modern
improvements. g's4s
This marvellous growth and develop
ment is the result of consolidation. Had
the territory not ben taken into the part
nership must have grown greatly by
the overflow from the city, but it would
have remained a collection of small com
munities developing individually, slowly
and unevenly, none of them enjoying the
advantages that are now enjoyed by all
as one people As separate municipal
ity the borough would now rank six
teenth among American cities. Had the
various communities pooled their Issues
and, become city by themselves at the
time of the consolidation their progress
would not have been SO rapid. They
would have paid much more and achiev-
ed ed much less by this time.

been superseded by Mr.. John Kearney'

which is almost entirely lost upon real

and that which remains has been polish
