FOR BETTER FIRE PROTECTION.

Ever since the town began to I'M
prove the question of fire protection
has been one of great Importance to
our people. All have realized, for
the past two years, the fact that at
any time the town might be wiped
out by a confagration. At the
time that the late Vim Wells resi-
dence burned we were informed
by the manager of the water works
that if the town had been paying
for fire protection the property
could have been saved. Notwith-
standing the fact that state law
REQ uires a water company to fur
nish water for FIRE protection free
of charge, our town officials, to Sc
cure better fire protection, entered
into an agreement to pay $50
month for an improved service and
one of its stipulations IS that the
reservoir shall be kept filed and
left full at midnight. Last winter
the Ritchey residence burned at 3
O'Clock in the morning and there
was not water enough in the tank
at that hour to last 20 minutes.
Tuesday morning of this week, at
6o'clock, the compauy's own plant
took fire and was destroyed. At
that time the reservoir was not
more than one fourth full. At
O'Clock that morning the mains
were filled with air. At +:5o
O'Clock the same morning the mains
were full of air. 1t has been the
frequent experience OF citizens that
they were unable to draw water
from the taps in their residences
between midnight and morning
These things are indisputable fact:
and we are citing them to show
that the service has been exceed
ingly poor. There has been yer!
lax management and the people o
the town have slumbered in delud
ed dream of salty when the flame
were liableto leap forth at any tim
and lick up their homes if not thei
lives. 1t is this insecure conditio
and consequent dangers, togethe
with the complete and irrefutabl
demonstration of their truthfulnes>
by the FIRE that destroyed the waite
works, that has at last aroused on
citizens to action. They are dt
termined to protect their propert
and to have that protection throug
puplic ownership if possible, an
otheswise by a franchise wit
ample safeguards and reservation
granted to a private company.
we understand the feeling arigi
it is proposed that the municip;
corporation, through its official
assert its rights for the benefit {
the public. Conditions are sue
that the people are not willing I
longer submit to them without a
effort to secure better protection
The question Of pure water ais
enters into the matter, as the healt
of people is of more important
than FIRE protection, and it is
we'll known fact that the intak
pipe Of the present system is in
place where the water will soon b.
come polluted, if it is not already 81
Nature has given US the preferant
of two methods of supplying II
town with pure water-one by
gravity system from Hayden lax
and the other by pumping static
with an intake pipe in the lake {
Tubbs' point and reservoir on II
hill. Either of these, with larg
mains, would give superior ser
ice and the people will not be sa
isfied with less.

Washington. Nov 22-The secre-
tary OF war sent 10 the attorney gem
eral the papers in the case OF Father
Augustine. who died from the effects
Of the water cure administered by sol
diers OF a Vermont regiment while
serving In the Philippines. The case
has been thoroughly Investigated by
the Judge advocate general OF the army
upon the charges brought by Chas.
Francis Adams. Herbert Welsh and
others. OF what was known as the
Lake George conference. Il cannot be
found that any person now serving In
the United States army was responsi-
bic In any way for the death Of the
friar. and. therefore. the person can
not be tried by courtmartial. II Is ex-
pected that following the precedenis
growing out OF other wars the attorney
general will render an opinion that
neither the courts In this country. nor
those In the Philippines. have any jur-
isdictlon over the men or officers who
have been discharged from the army
