In to-day'a impression of the
Progress witl be found the an
nouncement of George Owens as a
candidate for re-nomination to
the office of City Marshal. In fill-
iiie- the very difficult position of
Marshal, air. Uwens baa proven
himself to be one of the most com
petent of the city's public servants.
There is a vast amount of work required of a Marshal, much of it of an exactrflt!; nature that demands delicate tact and superior judgment,
with the ability to act quickly. Mr. Owens combines these quali
ties in an eminent degree, and bis administration has been of so satis
factory character generally that the best interests of our city would, we believe, be subserved by his reoomination. The Progress takes pleas
ure in endorsing him in the belief
that he ia the right man for the place. Handsomest Valentines ever
