RyNEAL BOYS WANT
AUTO HOSE TRUCK

Ryneal Hose Co. No. / held a regu-
lar meeting Tuesday night in Fire.
mems hall George Ryneal. jr, presid
ing.
The question of a new auto hose
truck for the company was discussed
at some length. The boys have felt
a good deal discouraged lately because
the City Council refused to make them
an appropriation towards the purchase
OF an auto hose truck. The company
had asked for $4,000, it viii be remem.
bered, but would have been satisfied
with $4,000 or even $1,000, but there
was nothing doing.
Mr. Ryneal was not slow in express
ing his displeasure at the action OF
council in refusing to make at least
some appropriation, especially as
Hose Co. No, got a handout of $3.50
for the new building fund; but still
he said he would stand by the boys
and maybe they will by some means
or another yet be able TO land a new
and up-to-date auto truck.
Several of the boys thought the
company deserved better treatment
from the corporation, seeing that all,
except three, give their services graf
is and are expected to answer every
fire alarm in town.
The company has $500 in the treas
ury towards the purchase of a new
truck and Mr.. Ryneal has generously
offered to donate $500 additional
making $4,000, and that too. In face of
the fact that he has already paid for
practically all the equipment the com
pany now possesses. But $4,000 is only
about one fourth of what an automo-
bile truck will cost-that is for the
kind that will fill the bill. While the
boys have devised no plans as yet for
making up the difference, yet it is
quite likely that it viii be done by
popular subscription as the Ryneals
are determined to have that machine
or some of them will leave the com
pany.
Ii has been pointed out that Win
chester with a little more than half
the population of Martinsburg, has
not only two horse fire outfits, but
an automobile truck oesides-in short
an np-to-data and complete firefghting
equipment all the way through, and
Charles Broadway Rouss didn't give
it all either In this respect Martins
burg is far behind her sister town.

REGISTRARS READY
FOR THEIR WORK
Persons Appointed by the County
Court viii Now Register
the Voters

The registrars appointed by the
court to register the voters in the
county were supposed to start their
today. but it being a holiday nothing
will be done until tomorrow. All of the
registrars have qualified, and they will
perform their duties as rapidly as pos
sible
Under the new law requiring regis
tration the expense of the county is
greatly increased, The law also re
quires that the Republican and Demo
cratic registrars shall go over their
districts together. No registrar can
work alone. This insures that every
voters name will appear on both the
Republican and Democratic books and
there isn't anything then can prevent
voter from exercisig his right of
suffrage.
The law also requires that the regis
tration be taken, the books returned
TO the county court so that 4 session
can be held to give those an opportun-
ity who have not been registered to
get their names on the list
