at suitable distances. The other will be
extended across the river to the corner
Of John Forests dwelling. A hose
house, hose cart etc. will be installed in
some convenient and central place in
western part of town. 1t will take some
time to do the work contemplated. 1t
is rather unfortunate that the price OF
pipe is high and still climbing higher.
A communication from Cliirinan Beck
shows that the Commissioners are ready
to do their duty at all times in regard to
any matter pertaining to the Wadsworth
ire department and there WAS no inten-
tion in the DIsPATCH report of the busi-
ness transacted by the local board to
leave an impression that the commis-
sioners were derelict in not issuing the
bonds.
Mr.. Beck states in his letter that
measures will be taken at once to issue
the bonds, which action viii please

requested by Wadsworth until last Mon
