$3o0,o0O MILL
GOES UP IN
FLAMES

The e. ]. McNeeley lumber
plant above Old Town was wiped
out by fire last night, with a loss
of 100000 and insurance OF
1925, 900.
The blaze started in the boiler
room. In a moment the boiler
room was a mass of fire and be-
fore anything could be done to
check it the whole plant was in
the grip of the flames.
The fire department worked
hard, but no fire apparatus could
ever have stopped that blaze after
it go started. A stiff breeze was
blowing, and 1t famed the flames
into white heat that simply melt
ed the big industry like SO much
pewter and sent it up in heat and
smoke.
The blaze was so fierce that IL
lighted the entire bay and much
of the city. A large section OF
the city was threatened and moth
ing but the fact that the wind
was blowing toward the bay
saved many elegant homes on the
hill above.
Citizens were much alarmed, as
it was, and many emptied their
houses of furniture ready to flee.
Firemen Injured.

WANT JUST THAT MUCH
MORE THAN NECESSARY
TO RUN CITY BUSINESS

A million dollars to run the city
government of Tacoma.
1t is enough; 1t is practically
$40 for every man, woman and
child in town.
And 1t can be secured probably
on a 10-mill levy.
But the city officials want a
quarter of a million more. They
want every man, woman and child
In Tacoma to put up $12 just to
grease the wheels of the munich
pal chariot.
The budget sent by the COM
missioner of finance to the COM
mission this morning calls for ST.
260,950. The fire department
wants more engines, more fire
houses, more automobiles, more
men, more horses, and the ever
recurring salary boost. The po-
lice department, in face of the
fact that Mayor Fawcett says the
town can be run with third less
than at present, wants 10 more
cops. 1t is the same old story of
everybody grab.

Heretofore when the fireboat
proposition has been up the water
front property owners have all
ways signifieId a willingness to as
sist financially in the matter but
nothing definitely was ever done
in it.
The old council has practically
settled that when they got ready
to build a fireboat they would sub

and big waterfront property own
ers and ask them to furnish a
good part of the original cost i'm
view of teh fact taht it will cost
the city about $4,000 a year to
maintain the boat after 1t lis built.
If the suggestion of the munf-
cipad dock committee ds taken up
it is possible the waterfront may
be organized I'm such a way as to
give financial assistance as we'll as
moral support to the fireboat
scheme and If this lis done the
city commission will no doubt be-

Freeiand Wants Retrenchment. |
But the people are getting tired.
Commissioners Freeland thia
morning sent with the budget a
letter calling for retrenchment.
The people demand that II be
made vigorous. If 1t is not, they
are in mood to try to put some
commissioners in who will re-
trench. Ten dollars apiece is too
much for running Tacoma, but
more than that the people will
consider cause for objection.
Indications are that the as
sessed valuation in the city this
year will be about $74.O00,OOO.
If 1t reaches that a 10-mill levy
will give $4,000. The city will
have $250,00O receipts from other
sources, making a cool million
dollars. This is $26O,0OO less
than the city officials want, but
the people are inclined to think
it is not more than they ought to
have.
1t is up to the commissioner
to use the knife.
