Progressive Party
To Meet Monday
A meeting of the Progres
iive P irty has been scheduled
tor Monday to select candi
ates for city council ant
mayor in the coming city elec
tion.
The United Labor Pa t>
held a caucus two weeks age
and chose their candidates.
Three councilman for two
| year terms and one counci man
j for a one year term will bt
‘selected. A candidate for
mayor, either for a one or a
two year term, will also be
chosen.
i Earlier, the MIRROR stated
that five councilmen would be
elected this October. The pa
per was in error. However,
the paper received the infor
mation from the city hall re
jgarding the number of candi
I dates to be elected. A later
check shows that only four
councilmen are required.
An ordinance now under
consideration by the council
■ will provide for a two year
> term for mayor if it passes.
; In past years the mayor served
only a one year term.
Also under consideration by
the council is the enactment
of an ordinance which will
.'provide salaries for the mayor
