The membership of the Good Government
league has now reached 100 In good stand
ing. The executive committee made Its
first formal report on membership last
night. The applications of three men were
not accepted on the ground that they had
fijed for office In the coming campaign.
The appllcatlona of A. M. Gallagher and
E. H. Leigh were turned down on the
ground that they were both holding email
appointive offices , under ,tua, city govern
ment. The attendance last night was con
alderably Increased over tha lust two meet
ings. ' '.
Whila the executive committee waa pre
paring Ita report considerable Informal
discussion of city affalra was Indulged
The secretary read a number of items on
the tax valuation of the city aa a whole,
and cited a number of the corporations In
partlcufar.
A resolution waa introduced by C. W.
Miller ordering -the executive committee to
Investigate the various candidates for nom
ination at the approaching primaries and
report ' at the next meeting, selecting one
candidate from each party for each clly
office as the choice of the body to be sup
ported at the polls. This Is the most Im
portant action taftn by the club so far
and caused considerable discussion. Many
believed that It was not strict Justice to
limit the selection to one candidate for
each office, but It was. agreed to as a prac
tical necessity because If the Interest of the
club was divided it could not aid in elect
ing its candidates. If good men were
chosen at the primaries by each party,
however, then the results of the election
would count for little either way. When
the question was put to a vote the resolu
tion was carried without a dissenting voice.
The executive committee will report on
this selection at the next meeting.
