STERLING LIKELY TO BE
MINUS FIRE DEPARTMENT

Sterling Is likely to be without a
fire department unless the city council
and the members of the volunteer de
partment get together. The place has
been in a bad way for number of
years, and fire fighting apparatus has
been allowed to run down till there is
very little of it. much IF what there
is being the property of the firemen
themselves. The compensation has
been so small that the firemen have
started movement for Il raise. and
the result is that the department is
on the verge of mutiny.
