THE MICHLER PLACE FIRE.-Editor .Sfrr.-

should be kept in such state OF efficiency that
no such investigation would ever be needed -
just so; but TO make 1t efficient money is re-
quired. and this must come through the ieyisla-
tlre. The present system is very imperfect,
and needs thorough reconstruction as recon-
Tended by the board OF fire commissioners.
The same paper speaks editorialIy of the ineEi-
cheney OF the IRE department, and particularly
of tse bad hose. Now il Is we'll
known fact that the hre commissioners
on their own responsibility purchased a
lot OF new hose, two years ago, now almost the
that the bill FOR this hose was presented to the
legislature last year, and no appropriation was
made to pay for IL. If the expenses Of the fire
department are TO be cut down so low that no
new property can be purchased when needed,
land much Is needed now, to make the depart
ment a. useful as it ought 10 be- then the prop
erty owners must lay the blame where il prop
eriy belongs, on those who refuse 10 make the
necessary appropriations for this importar.
