Gold Hill daily news. [volume] (Gold Hill, N.T. [Nev.]) 1863-1882, 1873-07-18

last Legislature compelling nremen 70
serve OIL iuries, Is bringing about the
Gradual disintegration and dismember-
ment of our local fire companies. Fire.
men rs a body have no privileges
granted them nowadays, except that
OF going to a fire and running n suit OF
clothes. Something must be done to
induce these men to keep up their Or
CARNATIONS. Virginia City, with a
population numbering q little more
than twice that Of Gold Hill, has three
steamers. The procurement Of q steam
fire engine will cause n proportionate
reduction In the cost of insurance.
We trust that our townspeople will be-
stow some thought upon this subject
commensurate with its importance. II
our people once set themselves reso-
lutely to work, the money needed for
the purchase of n steamer al be readi-
ly procured. 4 committee from Vel
low Jacket Hose Company will walt
upon our citizens next week, to sec
what can be done toward the procure
ment of a steamer. 1t Is to be hoped
that they will meet with proper en-
enlargement In their laudable under
taking.
