DOUGLAS DOCK HAS SALT WATER FOR
 FIRE PROTECTION

DOUGLAS, Feb. 2G.-To the Edi- tor:-Kindly permit me through the medium of your publication to cor rect an erroneous statement appear ing in Sunday mornings Dispatch un. der the heading "No Water on City Dock"
 This from the "Blunder Man." just what We might expect. Last summer an attempt was made to get the City Council to run a water main to the City Dock but it was not done.
 Who made the attempt
 The City Council is running the City Dock and knows it's wants bet ter than anybody else. They have a water pipe running to the City Dock. But of course it is empty in winter but could be used in case Of fire, and if the wharfinger was next to his job he would have used this method of getting water instead of laying 600 feet Of hose
 However the city does not have to dep nI on fresh water for fire purposes. The city can, today. and could at any time during the winter deliver a stream Of salt water at tho City Dock with one hundred and twenty pounds pressure at the noZ gle. This is something the "Bmnder Man" knows nothing about-notwith. standing that he was an applicant for fire chief only few weeks ago.
 Should the City Dock catch fire the "Blunder Man" no doubt, would stand by and look on, but the Doug las Volunteer Fire Department would Drompty connect with the saltwater hydrant and fight fire. They know what to do. A goodly number O them have been connected with the department since its inception The "Blunder Man" has only been a member few weeks which accounts for his ignorance of the system.
