8onstAing that Is Needed IN Elk Point
at Once.
There was M agent 70. a st. Paul
house for furnishing fire apparatus
III the city the other day and devot-
Cd one forenoon to discussing the
advisability Of fire protection for
Elk Point. lie was Of the opinion
that a great saving could be made
each year in the matter ofinsurance
il the tank system were established
here. The system costs about $4,000
and consists Of tanks, Of the cistern
order holding from GOO to 1000 gal.
Ions, to be built at the corner of the
street. From each tank, according to
the gentleman's figures. the engine
and hose would furnish the best of
protection for 1000 feet from the
cistern.
There seems TO be a favorable sem
timent TO the idea Of better FIRE pro.
lection, as that would Of a certainty
reduce the insurance rate, which in
the sum total paid by the citizens
here amounts To good sized fund.
But as to the method for securing
the protection there are various ideas.
The tank system is MI excellent
thing ia itself but when towns like
Coleridge, Nebraska, Canton, South
Dakota, Armour, South Dakota,
Rock Rapids, Iowa and Hawarden,
Iowa, have u waterworks system
why not Elk Point. It only costs
4 few thousand more, and at the
same time a plant which derives
some revenue from the domestic
supply Of water seems to be more
adapted TO the needs Of the commu-
n:ty. Waterwork systems are now
put in from 10000 to $4,000 and
the burden Of taxation is so light
with the interest on 20 year bonds
that towns like Elk Point can easily
afford the improvement. The re-
duction Of Is per cent upon the IN
surance pnid each year would
amount to 500 easily enough,a sum
which added to the revenue for town
and. house seryica wnnld nf ;ssnlt
liquidate the bonded Indebtedness.
