POLITIClANA.
A Non-Pnrtisan Cickes Placed I'm;
| the F1eldl-
The Citizens Non Partisan Association
held caucus last night of the COMMITTEES
appointed at the recent meeting at the
Pavilion. The original Citizens Reform
which took 30 active part in the last
municipal election has gone out of busi-
nees and its place is taken by rather
more vigorous and consistent organization
The meeting was held at the
rooms of the Y. M. @. A.,
on Second street. There were pres
ent Judge R. NJ. Widney, Chairman !;
DR.. J. P. Widney, W. B. Stradley, Rev.

Some discussion as to the aims and
purposes of the movement Took place,
and it was decided to proceed at once to
the business of making up ticket which
was to be selected, as lar as pos
sible, from both parties and
to include some Prohibitionists.
Very liberal views were eet forth
on the subject of temperance, it being
the plan OF the association not to expect
pledge ofany kind from the men who
are to compose the ticket, and to select
them rather with view to their busi-
ness capacity and general integrity than
for their views on abstract Questions of
morals.
| A list was taken in hand, on which
we're the names of the vari ,us nominees
as proposed by the parties already in
the field. These were taken up and dis
cussed one after another in secret
session. The following ticket was finally
adopted. The politics of each nominee
is indicated by the initial letter after his
name: Mayor, Hon. J. B. Toberman
(P.l; City Clerk, F. Il. Teed (R y; City
