PEACE AGAIN REIGNS IN
PENOLET0N DEPARTMENT

All is peace and hamony again in
the Pendleton fire department. \
meeting last evening between the
ioremen of the different companies
and the fire committee of the coun-
ell served to blow away the last bit
OF dissension and restore everybody
to good spirits. After all matters Of
dispute had been threshed out. it was
found there was very little real sub
stance to them
No definite action was taken at the
meeting TO place the department on
any different basis, it being the unan-
imous opinion that until the fire
alarm system is installed. there would
be no need to inaugurate any chang
es. When the alarm ooxes are put
in place. a new ordinance VIII be in.
troduced inasmuch as the improved
equipment will make some of the
old regulations needless. In the
meantime. the members will regard
the department as purely volunteer
institution, plus a chemical auto fire
truck.
After some discussion 1t was de-
oided that the charges of Councilman
Dyer that volunteer firemen had in.
terfered with the paid men at the
recent hotel fire were groundless
Councilmen Ell and Cole met with
the foremen and helped in bringing
all to an understanding. At the lat
ter's suggestion, hereafter until the
new ordinance is passed. the foreman
of the district in which a fire occurs
will be recognized as the foreman by
