The coming of September marked
the going out of the happiest season
of the year with the clerical forces OF
our city's business houses, for the
summer is rhe time when the store
clerk, wirH hair paretd in the mid
die, could leave his place OF business
at 6 p. M, on his mission of "con-
quering aud TO cJnquer. The time
when at early eveptide the kaiy-dids
started up their .ongs, the signal te :
ing that swinging on the front gate
time had come, aud also the hour for
the store clerks to pass along. In a
word it was the billing and cooling
season --the boys and girls doing the
cooipg and the "old man" paying the
bills. But those happy days, il
should be rememered, have not gone
forever. They will come again, th'
time of year when

THE ELECTION.
.. E. Bufkin Gets Nomination for
City Marshal in First Primary
Over Three Opponents.


Yesterday the first primary cleo
tion for the purpose of se'ecting a
city marshal to fill the uneXpired
term of B. NJ Moffett,. who. resigned
few weeks ago, was held, with the
result that O. E. Bufkin, was nomi-
mated over his three opponents by a
majority of three votes. While con-
siderable interest was displayed by
some, election excitement has palled
on the general public, and only a
small vote was polled.
AS The Progress requested and pre-
dicted, only one primary will be nee
essary, and a great deal of useless
work has been avoided by it. All
four of the candidates were good,
competent men, no doubt, but the
people could hardly have made bet
ter choice than O. f. Bufkin. To
him and TO this city we extend con-
gratulations in an equal measure.
The vote for the several candidates
is: 0. E. Bufkin, 146; r. G. Cowan
65; NJ. NJ. Sexton, Sc; a. G. Duck
