THE NEW HOSE HERE

AN INTERESTING MEETING
Many Property Owners Sent In Returns.

Prepared. Question Of Special
Meeting Not Settled.
AN INTERESTING MEETING

The thousand feet of new Dragon
hose ordered for the fire department
a short time ago arrived yesterday.
This will help the boys COOL deal
and equip them fairly we'll fer the
present, though more new hose will I'M
doubleday have to be purchased next
year.
Before this hose was purchased the
city had but $500 feet of good hose and
$50 feet of rubber hose. the larter, not
much good, being placed over on the
Acre. ..
The new hose is divided IS follows:
North End, $50 feet; East End, $50 feet:
Central Station. 500 feet This allows
two shifts for the Central station, Civ
ing that station 1900 feet.
About twenty-five members OF the
fire department are away on the bat
tleship Kearsarge and will not he able
to attend the Roanoke convention.
On Tuesday morning. October 3. at
8 O'Clock. the Street COMMITTEES Will
hold meeting for the purpose Of hear
ing the views of property owners on
the subject of the advisabilty of levy
ing {; local assessment for street pay
ing. This conference between the COM
n1ttec and citizens is likely to be
largely attended and interesting.
, -AOout JIG IlullOi ItIiSl lNci1lS ivy llo-
tees have been sent out to household
crs on the streets TO be paved City
Clerk Masse has already received half
la hundred returns to the notices. Some
OF these are accompanied by notes. the
writers stating their views in writing
rather than appear before the commit
tee. The majority of these seem to ia
vor the assessment while some favor
it conditionally. Others. STILL favor The
paving being done entirely by the city;
still others, aoy general taxation.
1t has not yet been Decided whether
The council shall hold a special meeting
or wait until the next regular meeting.
The general impression seems to be
that a meeting VIII he held next Tues
day night. by this time the report Of
the paving committee will be READY fer
the city fathers and it is probable that
the best part Of the night Will lie spent
in discussing it.
The sewer question. that that niunic-
ipal Banuuo. Will come up. provided it
is included in the call. and Will claim
a large and prolonged share OF the
councils attention.
There are many other matters. but
they VIII probably be deferred until the
regular meeting.
The report of the paving comraittae
is now in course of preparation. II
will be somewhat extended.
