with the cost Of everything we eat
and drink and wear. Every stock OF
goods is insured; the Insurance is
added 10 the cost of the goods; and
when we buy hat, or a shoe, or a
coat, we pay this insurance concealed
in the price Of the goods.
The Homogeneous OF hah a
dozen States have given il as their
Official opinion that under the Ameri-
can common law, a man, whose neg
lgence causes a FIRE, is liable for fire
damage to his neighbor's house; but
nobody thinks OF bringing suit. The
habit OF mind that the insurance
companies pay the loss is too strong.
But in the personal liability idea OF
the French resides companion
thought that is permeating the Amer
ican brain-the idea Of imposing a
charge for the use Of the fire de-
partment upon the man who disre-
CARDS a fire prevention order. The
grogress Of this idea in America is en-
listing the cooperation that Is sought
by those who have promoted fire de-
partment Inspections
The argument for this law or ordi-
nance is unanswerable. No civilized
community should expect its flremen
to risk their lives in lighting fires
that are easily preventable; enough
danger always will be encountered IN
extinguishing those which are moi
easy TO avoid For many years we
will continue TO have disastrous fires
and fires Of great magnitude in those
cities in which wooden construction
still makes sweeping fires possible
1.-THE aggregate fire loss cannot for
some time be taken as the direct
measure Of success in fire prevention.
10 Is the decreasing number OF fire
alarms that is TO be the significant
factor, and nothing will reduce the
number Of fire alarms so radically as
the fixing OF personal responsibility
therefor. The utmost achievements
of flre-fighting science are crippled
and baked by the habits OF a people
encouraged in responsibility toward
the common safety.
"The attention OF such a people
cannot be attracted and a correction
OF their misChievous habits achieved
by any ordinary methods of polite ed
ucation They must be made respon-
sible .Gor their acts OF trespass. A
man who has a preventable fire picks
the pockets OF his neighbors, either
through the medium Of fire insurance
or an uniustifled use OF the public
fire department which all must sup
port
tanned TO protect a man from the re
suits OF his negligence, and when HI
calls upon the city in any such cast
he should be made to pay for the ser
vice.
