CRUSADE.
TAKE OVER CITIZENS
CIVIC ASSOCIATION
Better Elements Of City Now Aligned
Against Political spoiIs System and
Will Fight For Better Government
Recall Petition Said to Contain suf.
fieient Sisnsrs.

Sioux City, March 13-Sioux Cityans
VINO have despaired of good govern
ment under the present political spoils
system met in the y. NJ c. A. ana
formed Good Government League.
This league will take the place of the
Citizens Civic Association which was
lnaugurated for the purpose of bring
Ing about the recall of John Dineen as
commissioner OF public safety
The new organization is wide in
scope and purpose and will combine
all of the good features of the old
organization, along with other new and
sterling qualities which the former dld
not possess
The Citizens Civic Association was
composed nearly entirely of ministers
and the members OF their consrega-
lions This led to the sneering re-
mark by the unthinking that 1t was a
church" movement. 1t was not in any
sense a church organization. for It's
members were composed of the better
class of citizens but knowing that such
criticism had been made il vas decld-
ed to band together body of men who
are so widely known in business ana
social life that there no longer can
be the slightest criticism of its pur-
poses or motives.
The Good Government League mas
enrolled in its ranks some of the most
widely known men in Sioux City; men
whose word is their bond in CONNER
cial life and who are always 10 the
forefront with money or influence Hnen
questions arise concerning the welfare
of their city. They are determined TO
push the recall to the limit and place
man in Office who viii represent CIVIC
decency and progress.
E A. Fields is president of the new
organization. A. c. McGiu IS secre-
tary. In addition. board OF repre-
sentatives has been appointed ana
these men will act as an executive
committee in the fight for the recall
and the subsequent clean up.
The new organization was not
formed until it was absolutely certain
that the recall would be brought about
At the meeting last night, reports We're
made which indicated that there were
enough names to assure success 1t
was pointed out that these names were
secured without any plan of soliciting
signatures being followed. In other
words the men who were circulating
the petitions went about getting them
in hi. and miss fashion, the majority
of the signatures being volunteered
Now it is planned to make house to
house canvass. SO that every voter
may have chance TO express his dis
gust and disapproval of present meth
eds of government in the department
of public safety. 1t is believed that
SO many of the voters will sign the re-
call petitions that John Dineen will see
the folly of running for reelection and
''vindication."
