PERFECTLY SATISFIED
APPROPRIATION OF teOO A YEAR
WILL MEET NECESSARY EX
PENSES OF THE COMPANIES.
The volunteer firemen were feellnc
ubllant Friday because of the action
of Council Thuraday night In the mat
ter of an Increased appropriation for
he nre company expenaea In the city.
At the meeting of Council the City
Attorney was Instructed to draw up
an ordinance appropriating $100 a
year for each of the Are companies
In the city, payment to be made the
first of the year aa haa been the
usual custom. And the firemen were
feeling good In the matter.
. This action does not appropriate
tha money, but aa all the members
voted unanimously to have the or
dinance drawn It la argued that they
will vote to pass It. which Is likely,
ao the matter la aa good as settled.
The fCOO a year asked seems to
satisfy the boys completely. The Idea
of giving the fire chief 1100 a month
and requiring all hla aervlcea for the
city does not seem to meet the wlshea
of the firemen themselves. They
seem to fear as to what politics might
do to the morald of the companlea.
The volunteer department haa been
a faithful organisation In the paat and
bad tne well wishes of all the people.
While the city la getting much larger
and a paid department would prove
Ideal, still with a little cloaer-organl
satlon on the part of the volunteers
a great work may yet be done-by-them
and the business men and cltltena feel
a warm place In .their heana for the
fire laddlea.
What else the firemen want In the
way of Improvements and new meana
of fighting Area la for the good of the
cause and not for the personal benefit
of any of the members. They feel
that certain accessories are needed
and ahould be secured, but thla la In
the line of efficiency aa fire flghtera
and not to enter Into any benefits for
the volunteers.
