the fire on Tuesday morning q.
this week was not backed by /
wind. The morning was almosi
absolutely calm. Had there beer
a breeze of any strength, n{
power could have saved the NORTH
end of the town. The Hose
Company was prompt in gettina
to the scene of the fire, but Whe1
arrived were not of much use
The first line of hose laid was u
years old and While only three
or four hundred feet were rur
out, at least one half of it
burst under pressure. This
4,aused two or three shut downs
bf several minutes duration.
When an effort was made to run
second line, it was found to
Nbe impossible to open the plug
although at least three men tried
Fit and bent a steel wrench in
their efforts. We have inquired
from members of the Hose Com
pany what the matter is. We
have also inquired of members
|of the Town Commissioners and
the Light and Water Commission,
land from these sources gather
'tGhtse The following information. The
TbWn Commissioners pay the
Light and Water Commission
$s5 per year for each fire plug.
The fact that the Town is in
arrears for this rent does not
and cannot excuse the Light and
Water Commission for not keep
ing the fire plugs ready for ser
vice. The Town Commissioners
makes an appropriation each year
Of 5000 to support the Hose Com
pany and have a right to expect
the Company to keep its hose in
proper shape. On the other
hand, members of the Company
say, that they have been trying
to buy 400 feet, or $3.50 worth, of
hose since early summer and
gave the order for it on the 9Th
of the present month. The only
reason they have waited is that
the Town could not or would not
pay the aspiration due Septem.
ber 1st, 1900. The Town Com
missioners say they cannot get
the money due them for taxes,
tits only a few years ago that
the law in reference to collection |
Of Town Taxes was completely |
to secure a cheaper way
of doing the work. AS a result
Of these changes, instead of get
ing the tax levy in one year, the
Town does not get it in two years.
Phis is all wrong. One half of
he Town Tax is paid one month
# the year, June, and twenty
hree months does not suffice to |
,ollect the other half including
,rrors. Members of the Hose
company say that the coming
lection of officers will see an
|ntire reorganization. The same
hing should obtain in the Town
commissioners and the Light
Ind Water Commission. The
Arelessness displayed in the
Gnagement of our fire protec-
bn is almostc criminal, and unless
hange is made, will result in
Ffots destruction Of property
d possibly of life.
