AT the special meeting of the council held in the town hall Saturday wei
ing it wa determined to buy a 40 gallon chemical engine at a cost of $500.
The proposition to purchase a hand pump, cart and 500 feet of hose failed
of passage, Broadhurt and Huntington voting for the measure and Chrsten
sen and Edwards against. AS the vote IA a tie Mayor Pion voted against
the measure, thus defeating it, The Sun believes the council did wise to
buy the chemical engine, but that it should have purchased the pump and
hose also. Towns that have both chemical engines and fire engines figure
that the chemical engine will put out 80 per cent of the fires, but that it is
very necessary to have the fire engine o. hands, as a precautionary measure
Perhaps, at a later date, the council may find it convenient to buy the large
hand pump. 1t will be money well spent.
