Committee to Wait on Council
and Solicit Immediate
Action.
INTEREST IS SHOWN
Measures Of Far Reaching I'm.
portance Spring From Lack
OF Fire Protection. Debate
Spirited and Free.

At a citizens meeting held un-
der the auspices of the Business
Mems Association in the l. o. o.
F. building last night steps of
far-reaching Importance were
taken for the future protection
of Reynoldsville property from
fire and to serve their interests
in the way OF securing municipal
ownership of the water system.
There was representative attend
ance of local property owners and bus
iness men. After the routine business
OF the Association had been disposed Of,
President Breakey opened the meeting
Of the citizens for which special call
had been issued. Its purpose was to
discuss the recent conhagrations in
Reynodsville and the causes which
made them possible, viz, lack Of water
at the time OF discovery. The discus
sion was thorough and fair. II the
faults OF the water system and its man
agement were shown up, it was also
given full credit for the efforts IL has
made to prevent water famine. The
heaviest censure was directed againt
the company's action in shutting off
the water at night without providing
watchman at the tank to turn on the
water instantly 10 case OF fire alarm. A
committee was instructed to confer
with the fire protection committee OF
! town council In regard to this.
A motion was made that committee
OF five be appointed to wait on the town
council and urge the immediate pur-
chase OF a fire engine. 1t carried and
the committee appointed was, Charles
M. Milliren, chief Of the Hope Fire Co.,
w. Fl. Bell, Andrew Wheeler, Mayor
s. M. McCreight, w. T. Cox and G. T.
Woodford.
1t was mentioned that failure to shut
off the natural gas at the curb Saturday
night had caused number OF gas ex-
plosions or fires which made the work
and danger to the fremen much great
er. The above committee was also in
structed to see what could be done to
prevent this in the future.
The matter of advocating municipal
ownership OF the city water system as
means Of securing cheaper and better
service was taken up last and called
forth some interesting facts and figures
regarding the local water plant, its
value, earnings, charges and service.
The debate was free and spirited and
ended in the practically unanimous ad-
option OF a resolution urging the town
council to take the necessary steps to
secure public ownership Of the water
works property.

The Cost of Barrels.

The farmer with his potatoes and his
apples, the miller with his flour and
meal, the hardware man with his nails,
the cement manufacturer, and the many
other users OF the faithful slack barrel,
that combination OF slaves, hoops and
heading, which is not intended to hold
water or something stronger in fluid
form, used forest products last year
having the enormous value of $780,
253. The average man would little sus-
pect that the humble barrel plays 30
important a part in the expense ac-
counts of the American farmer and
manufacturer, yet figures compiled by
the Census in cooperation with the
United States Forest Service develop
this interesting truth. Moreover, sta
tistics taken directly from reports from
$50 cooperage mills In all parts OF the
United States show an increase of
sl,569,eSS, or II per cent, in the value
