BROWNSVILLE WILL PAY THE COST.
Another costly lesson for Brownsville,
Two beautiful homes laid in ashes. when
cveryone agrees that one. at least, might
have been saved. and the other perhaps
rar;ly saved, had the city's fire fighting
facilities been adequate. ii looks a. If this
should teach Brownsville once for all the
folly of tolerating a fire department and
water service that are entirely inefficient.

more exasperating.
Above all. the fact that these buildings
were sacrificed chiefly a. the result Of the
condition at the city water plant. which
could not furnish sufficient pressure to
feed the hose, Is the subject of general
condemnation.
Frankly, the city Is being criticized very
severely on account Of the failure to pro
vide adequate protection against fire. The
city has for years paid literally for u
''plid fire department" What results are
wr obtaining from this expenditure! II ny
acknowledged that the city water and light
i.ant Is making money. I'm other word !,
The users are paying the city a profit on
this public utility. Should not the city
