 The gIot. ,g rroeantod to ,b, meeting went through with but one snag hole. Charley Jones was down for council from the first ward, but the name of Warrington was voted when it was announced from the floor that he had said that he would make the race for return to the office he now holds if Progressives wished him to run. Warrington heretofore has been classed as a Re. publican. He was elected to the coun- ell as such two years ago. The defec- ton probably looked good Nfs. Nahsick is the v4duy of a well known miner, her husband hay. ing be- a fatally hurt about i,: ago a. the Cole shaft She is the mothe~ of five yoDng children and has rrs.d- ed in the city ten years. tt was stated in the meeting last night by several speakers that she was we'll qualified by bookkeeping education 1 10 fill the office of city clerk.
 All the other candidates are well known and in talk about town last night, when the results of the mee,. ing were heard in political circles, 1t was said that the Progressives mad made up strong ticket. As tC that word Progressive" the meeting made plain that 1t wished press ref erences to the title of it's politics to ignore the word Republican. A speaker said that they wanted no as sociation with the old party; that they were padding their own canoe as Progressiyes.
 Regarding the ticket. Chairman Hicks and Secretary Nolan both took occasion to call the attention of the meeting to the point that it had been made up solely to assure the Pro gressiyes of complete ticket in the primaries and that 1t did not preclude any Progressive desiring place on the ticket from entering the primaries and making contest. It was said by friends of Mir Jones after the meel ing that they were certainly going {, see to it that his name entered th, primaries.
 A committee of four was named c. conduct the work of the organization through the primaries. It is com posed of Harry Aiken, Tom Monier Hank Snodgrass and John Caretto Following the committee appoint ment, adjournment was taken. At tendance numbered about thirty vot. CTS. Four of these were women, three of whom left before the close.
