| just plod along, and just about
catch up to them, when, behold, they
growl, and roar, and tear away like
they thought l had horns and a
spear, and they tear for all they are
worth for three quarters of a block,
only to start sliding again, and stop.
I've watched this so often, block af-
ter block, the whole way through
town, and wondered if they actually
enjoy the game, and how they tell
when they win!"
After thinking through this pleas
ant reverie, the horse suddenly
found that he had caught up to the
red and green monster. Here was a
scene of hustle and excitement-fo
of course the monster was the
Western Enterprises new fire truck.
Back in 1903 (our friend the
horse, scarcely remembers this), one
of the general ordinances of the
City of Hagerstown read, in part, as
follows:
"The Fire Department of Hagers-
town shall consist of the following
named companies:
''The First Hose Company, The
Antietam Fire Company, The Junior
Fire Company, the Pioneer Hook
and Ladder Company, The Western
Enterprise Fire Company, The
Chemical Fire Company"
The same ordinance goes on to
tell how each company was to select
delegates who should attend a con-
vention, which in turn should select
a prospective suitable" person to
be Chief Marshal of the Fire De-
partment of Hagerstown The clos
ing sentence of this section reads:
Said Chief Marshal of the Fire De-

full and for what purpose the money
is to be expended. And get this one
He shall perform such other du-
ties as the Mayor and Council may
from time to time require of him."
Now how would you like to take a
job with the conditions like that last
one, and without pay
Section six of this ordinance stat
ed that no fire engine or other APP
paratus shall leave town. or be TAX
en- beyond the city limits, unless the
permission of the Mayor be had in
writing first. suppose by the time
one found the Mayor, it was use
less to get his permission, unless
someone wanted the fire depart
ment for some reason other than a
fire.
And another section in this or
dinance gave the Fire Department
absolute right-of-way when going to
a fire. No doubt this was the rea-
son the horse was so nearly run
over. But I don't know just what
kind of fire the other drivers, re-
terred to in another section, were
going to. This section says:
'Firemen with their apparatus 60
ing to fire shall have the right of
way upon the streets, alleys, and
public thoroughfares of Hagerstown
to the exclusion of every sort of
whatsoever.
On one occasion 1 heard a CITY
call one of those other
drivers, not a fireman, but a Cow
boy" That wasn't all he said, either!

CLINCHFIELD
MINERS WALK
OUT MONDAY

A Walkout of Clinchfield min
ers started Monday, and by night
when the Meade Fork workers
failed to report, all four Clinch-
field mines were idle.
1t is reported that the cause of
the strike was disagreement as
to the future operation of the
hospital at Dante. According to
miners, the hospital building be-
longs to the coal corporation
while the equipment belongs to
the men. The employees, it is
said, wanted a lease to operate
the hospital. The coal company
refused to make the lease and
ordered the equipment removed
from the building. II is UNDER
stood that the company takes the
stand that negotiations for a
contract on such matters cannot
be carried on while employees
are on strike.
Notices appeared in Clintwood
Tuesday to the effect that work
would be available for all who
wanted to work at Lick Fork en-
Wednesday. These notices receiv
ed only scornful attention from
the miners.

Moonshiners Take
Hard Beating Last
Week

Officers gave the moonshing
business in Cumberland Noun
tain two jolts late last week.
On Wednesday afternoon, dep
uty sheriffs took 60-gallon still
and destroyed all the accessof-
les near Birch Gap. Another set
up, in which the still had not
been installed, was put out of
commission. The sheriff's force
and two ABC officers raided a
plant near the White Rocks Fri
day. A 40-gallon still, seven tubs
of mash, and five gallons of
moonshine were destroyed. The
place was running full blast
when the officers reached h e
spot. The operators had evidently
been warned by shout from a
mountain crag nearby and made
their escape.
Also, Clarence Mullins of Freel
ing is authority for the report
that federal officers from Ken
lucky crossed the mountain last
week and swooped down on a
moonshine plant on the head
waters of Pine Creek, leaving
neither hair no hide of the outfit.
