Gs-A subscriber takes the liberty of suggest
ing to the convention Of the H. as a suitable per-
son for the position of Chief Engineer of the
Fire Department, Major George Dufey, who is
in every essential, qualified for the position,
and will, by wise and judicious management,
bring the Fire Department from its present condi-
ton of confusion to order, efficacy and harmony.
The Major is accustomed to command men, and
has been in active relation with the Sun Fire
Company and other fire companies for tho past
thirty years; he has also been in military SER
vice, either as citizen soldier or rs active COM
mander on the field of battle. Therefore, look
ing Mt the matter in all its relations we think
that Major Duttey is decidedly one Of tho most
tit men the City Council can select for the re-
sponsibe position of Chief Engineer, and if that
body is so fortunate as to secure his services the
citizens may confidently expect one of the most
perfect and efficient fire departments We have
had for many years.
