COUNCIL BUYS A FIRE ENGINE
 FOR ABATEMENT
An American LaFranCe Has Been Purchased to Aid the Local
 Bremen.

Last night, acting on the request .of Fire Chief Sim Fre!man, the Ju- neau City Council voted unanimously to purchase an American LaFranca Junior Pump fire engine for the Juneau Fire Department.
 The action was taken after Chief Freiman explained how well the de- partment was organized and what good work 1t had done iu thc past. He called the attention of the Coun, ell to the fact that the present auto truck has been il service for three years without an accident, but eN- pIalucd that an acc'JoU. ig liable Co harpon any time which will cause the car to be laid mp for scyera. weeks and leave the city w.-hcu. adc- uuate fro protection.
 Nr. Fre,ma0 also called attention 10 the fact tha. Juneau is rapidly growing in all directions and that in case or two fires breaking out at the same time, the department would be up against it.
 Unanimous Vote
 The Councilmen, led by Raymond, chairman of the fire committee, dis cussed the question at some length and Councilman Morgan moved for the purchase of the engine. The motion was seconded by Council man King and was passed unani- mously.
 The engine which will be puTchos. ed is what is known as the Junior pump. The truck Is of 12O horse. power and is the regulaao1 ted with a smaller pump, making a difference Of several hundred dollars in the price. It was also pointed out that with the salt water sys. tenn, the pump probably would not be found necessary in the down town section. but would prove invaluable in case of fire in the outlying sec tions where water is short, or the pressure is low. The pump will cost { $6,75O and is guaranteed to climb any |hW in the city with from 1900 to l7OO feet of hose and eight men on |t. This same model engine has made records in several Canadian cities where it climbed steep grades with full equipment and eight men . in three feet of soft snow. The truck is equipped with double tired traction wheels with 8 wide bearing surface and with 156-inch wheel base. It is a chain drive and is equipped with one 4O-gallon chem. . teal tank.
 TO Change Quarters ! It is the plan Of the council when 1 .le truck arrives Co cut another double door in the present fire hall l for the second truck and fit ID sleep. ling quarters for the liremcn in the present school rooms upstairs will ! a slide pole, such as is in use in the large cities.
 A letter from the agents for th,
 car was received and read to the
 council setting forth ,h2. the price of the car was advancing OR the frs of January. bu. that c3 account O. the distance to Juneau they wOulc allow until January 10th before mak. 1 ing the advance # tho rOuaci wlsn9, 70 place an order. The city clcr, was tstrur-ed 70 wire 'ha order in

harden Ulster unionists' opposition to
any form OF home rule by strengthen.

separation.
The supporters of the Irish party re-
gard the Sim Fein Ulster campaign
as likely to hand over Ulster seats at
once 70 the unionist party. At present
Ulster returns a majority of members
pledged to home rule, but in some cases
the majority by which the seat is held
is very small. and If there were a gem
eral election the result OF the Sim Fein
dissention might be the loss of seats
and the establishment of unionist
majority in Ulster.
The Sim Feiners continue to talk of
the securing of Irish interests at the
peace conference, but they no longer
place the same reliance on the aid of
America
Meanwhile the results of the Irish
conference will be announced long be.
