I The CAUCUS for the Town Of Proviso, to noni-
! nate town officers, WAS held in haywood H&l1
| Thursday night. The following ticket was put
in nomination: For Supervisor. 3. B. Barney;
Commissioner OF Highways, Henry Volherding !;
Asaeeeor, L. Wolf Collector, John Frippin9er; !;
Justice Of the Peace. J.. Y. Ferris This Is a
nomination Of the people. without regard 10
party, and without opposition. Tha Town ot
Proyiso il the best govarued town IN tue country.
The hummszs have no: get come along. The
! finances have been wisely and economically ox-
| pended, Taxes aro not high in tho town, and
! there is no complaint of tax-eatiug by the PED
| pie. 30 far as the town administration is con-
| cesned, aud the voters will probably keep the
| town ID this line.
As has been expected for some time. the men-
| bars Of the preBeut Board Of Village Trustees
| have issued the following cau I:
In accordance with the usual custom heretofore Oh
village irrespective Of party respectfully request
ed to meet st Lyons' Hall Saturday evening, the sth
dsy of April At 7:3o O'Clock, for the purpose of noi
hating Board Of Village Trustees. Village Clerk,
and swo Library Trustees to the ensuing year.
The present board OF Trustees will also take thIa
caaton to gye to the public general idea Of the
| diton aud situation of village adairs.
Although this does not prosnisa much, there
| is no doubt that tho proposed nesting will be
| we'll attended, as there are eome active politi-
Clans in the village who claim to be very anxious
| and situation Of village anairs." The uanum-
besed amy OF self-sacriGcing candidates will
| also ba on hand, aud Upon the action taken 1t
| this meeting will depend the oatuze aud result
| Of the vi1lage election.
It is evident that the present 1ncumbents will
| throw their influence in favor Of the nomlna-
slon Of Irregular ticker for village othcers in
| oppoaition to that set up some weeks ago at .
| private residence. II the better material could
! be properly amalgamatol w7th that in the pres-
| ent Board, the result would be eminently satis-
| factory. There are some in the present Board
| and some IN tho aforesaid ticket, who CAL "a to
election without running any risk Of being
elected, 50 that, i two tickets are placed
probably be chosen. It would therefore be
| more pleasant all around to nominate Saturday
| evening three OF the gentlemen whose namea
appear on the ticket now in the field, and add
the names Of Meesrs: Obadiah Hnse T. Frank
Wheeler and q. G. Th'inghaat. II, when this Is
done, it is deemed necessary to have an opposi-
ton ticket, let the other three gentlemen on the
Ridge ticket +" be nominated in company with
three others Of the present Bosrd, and they viii
meet with certain defeat.
There are now three tickets in the field for
Village officers and two for Town. OF the
nominees for Town officers, II. ]. Russell, for
Clerk, ID On both tlckets, and be is equally tor
tunate in being the nominee for Village Clerk on
Nil three tieketa. There could be no better :e7i-
dence OF Mr. RusselHs deserved popularity thsn
his unanimous selection for this office.
For Collector the two nominees are Michael

resident OF South Chicago, aud liz hns

His popularity. ability. and high person.

will command the support Of the best men OF
all parties. Mr. Condee is young man whose
Bole claim to the aufragss OF his fellow-citzens
is that he is popularly supposed to haye some
influence with Mr.. Wilest. Indeed. Wille.t has
absorbed Candea, or Condee has absorbed Will

Mr: Condee has, indeed, ncquired q certain no.
toriety from tie display Of aharp prac-
tice IN packing the Convention which
nominated him, and from the e1ofbitans
character OF the charge made by him for making
tho assessment for the Forty third street sawer.
This projece was one OF the pes schemes Of the
Waite-lloxie administration, aud oaing con-
eeived in sin it was not unnatural that it ahnuld
