BENEFITS oF TWO


 Besides this. with two machines. we could fight two or more fires at the same time. Suppose we were at the sawmfl with both pieces of apparatus and an alarm came in from the other end Of town. as sometimes happens. One machine could remain and watch the first fire while the other could be at the scene of the second in less than two minutes At present we cannot do this.
 Salt water mans are all right. and I wish we had them. but the cost of installing. the comparatively small section which would be protected, and the length of time necessary to get the water from the Alaska Juneau to the scene of the fire makes them im- practicable to my notion.
 The city council fought tooth and toe nail against gettin the auto truck for us. but it has saved th.s town thousands of dollars. and every one now realizes that we were right. Fairbanks maintains seven paid fire fighters, with a chief drawing a salary Of S25O per month. Fairbanks has not the money invested in business prop erty nor residences that Juneau has.
 FlREMEN GET NOTHING.
 Here we have one man drawing SsS per month from the department and a chief getting s25 per month, while the boys themselves get noth- ing. and then there is a kick about paying that. When say the boys get nothing ] mean just that. True they draw a small amount from the city for each call. but this money is put back into a fund which the fire boys are raising to buy certain appar- atus to present to the city for the ben- eft of the town and hardly man on the department is an owner of prop erty
 "As one man said yesterday, If you could line up the fire department and take ten thousand dollars worth of property away from them there wouldn't be enough clothes left in the bunch to cover one man. and he was right.
 ''we need galt water and we need it bad. We need a fro engine and we need 1t mad. and of the two proposi- tions, after considering an points. l strongly favor the engine scheme"

FREEMAN IS
 FOR A REAL
 FIRE ENGINE

"l would like to sec the city council secure a good fire engine" said Chief Fireman of the Juneau fire department this morning. 70 like the saIt water proposition, but favor tho engine for many reasons. In tho first place | believe tho cost of installing and maintaining the salt water malns would run into thousands Of dollars, and would then only cover part Of the city. while the cost of the engine would be only saooo at the most and would furnish protection for every part Of the city.
 'If the council will buy good en- zine and win place two more chemical tanks on the present cart will feel safe. and will feel that with the present department the town is well protected. The need of more chemical was dem onstrated during. the cold weather when three alarms were turned in at almost the same time. The chemical was exhausted at tho Nelson fire and before 1t could be recharged an alarm was rung in from near the Grand The atro. Whom we got there we had mo- thing to fight with except hand chem icals and then tho alarm from Gold stein's came in. IT these fires had amounted to anything they would done ceveral thousand dollars worth of damage with water which VIC would have been required to pour on the aonee

PROGRESS OF THE NEGRO
Plans Being Formulated For
The Emancipation Cele-
bration Jan. l, 1917.

A movement is on foot for the pur-
pose of entertaining all Of the ex-
slaves, and to show the handlcraft
and agricultural products Of negroes
of this county during the last fifteen
years Of their freedom.
The plan is unique and originated
blythe colored people Of Pembroke,
Hopkinsville and other towns in this
county. Encouraging letters have
been received from prominent white
people of Hopkinsville and Pembroke
and other towns in the county, prom
Using their support.
The letter sent out by the commit
tee reads as follows:
PEMBROKE, KENTUCKY.
To our white fellow citizens, es-
pecially to those whom we believe to
be friendly to us and the cause OF Ne
gro advancement, we appeal for a
liberal subscription to the fund which
we are raising for the purpose herein
set forth. We feel that all liberal
minded white people of the South
want to see the Negro do well and are
proud of the advancement which the
race has made since its freedom.
1t is our intention to give in this city
on Jan. /, 1917, an emancipation Gel
ebration, at which we propose to show
the progress the race has made in the
last half century, that the world may
form a correct opinion of what the
Negro is doing in contributing his
part to the moral, industrial and in
tellectual betterment Of society, to the
end that g. proper solution Of the prob
lem may be had from a business, COM
mercial and financial standpoint. Hsa 7
We feel that the business relations Of
the two races, especially in the South,
should be mutual, and that they should
abide together in peace, and thatit is
our duty to cultivate the friendship
and respect of the best white people
of the community in which We live.
Now to carry out successfully the
purpose which we have outlined, we
have appealed to our churches and
societies for their individual support
in raising money necessary to make a
creditable showing by arranging an
elaborate program (which shall
appear some very able speakers, COL
ored and white, and to assist in COL
lecting articles Of note worthy that
have been made by the race since our

RULES FOR TEXAS GlNNERS
UNDER NEW WAREHOUSE ACT

Austin, Texas, Aug. 16.-With the
approach of the cotton picking and
marketing season, the state ware
house and marketing department,
through f. c. Weiner and Peter Rad
ford, has just issued a statement ad-
dressed 20 the 1000 ginners in Texas
relative to the rules to be observed
during the ginning season under the
new Permanent Warehouse Act
Because this law was misunder-
stood several times during the past
ginning season, many complications
arose. This season, according to an
announcement, the department de-
sires to aid the ginners and at the
same time require them to comply
with the provisions of the law. Spec
ial stress is laid on that feature of
the law which requires every ginner
to take three samples of each bale
ginned. The constitutionality of this
phase of the law has been upheld in
the higher courts.

GIVE HIS LIFE IN EFFORT
TO SAVE ANOTHER.

Oklahoma City, Okla, Aug. ID
The heroic struggle of Fred d. Par
sons, q, manager of the Oklahoma
Tire Construction company, to save a
small boy led to his drowning in the
Washita river near Wayne, Sunday.
The story was told Monday by
friends of the family who accompani-

fishing excursion to the Washita.
Parsons saw the lad going down
and jumped in to save him. After a
great struggle he pulled the boy into
the shallow water where he could
wade to safety. Parsons, however,
fell back into is feet of water. His
wife stood on the bank and saw him
drown. Two men also were on the
bank but made no effort to rescue
Parsons.

THE CONVENTION HALL

1t will not be many days now until
Mayor Mullen can appoint a commit
tee from the commissioners TO work
out plans for the new convention
er sizo shall prevail or whether the
capacity shall be sacrificed for ele-
gance is one of the questions to be
determined. The sum of money to be
used will build very large structure
of a cheap nature or it can be used
TO build one of much smaller size but
of more comfort and more elegance.
The idea of permanency will of
course appeal to the committee which
will be entrusted with this important
piece of work. The arrangement for
a convenient annex that will add to
the capacity without detracting from
the beauty of the building, without
giving any appearance of having
been patched will also appeal to the
judgment of this committee.
If such thing could be done so as
to permit the seats to be occupied
while a pageant on Broadway or c
street could be seen, the arrangement
would indeed be appreciated. II is
very tiresome to all, and especially
10 old age and childhood, to stand on
the streets for hours while school
