Saturdays fire has taught New Ulm
another, and a good lesson. When
members of the old department de-
manded the purchase of a steamer the
REVIEW opposed the scheme because
we toresaw just such an accident as
happened Saturday. We held that a
steamer would be of no use unless a
competent man was engaged to run it.
Competent men do not work for moth
ing. Although the department has two
men who are competent to run the Ell
CINE, both of them happened to be out
of town on the evening of the fire. This
is liable to happen again and although
the agent of the engine company claim
ed that the machine would not get out
OF order very easy and that he could
teach man in a very short time how
to run the engine experience has taught
that he was mistaken. The steamer
was repaired Sunday and put in wol king
order after several hours Of diligent
work by a corps Of experts.
