Wo liavo frtMiuontly noticed the careless man
ner in which some of tho drivers in this city
run over tho cross-walks of the streets. Tho
walks, as a general thing, aro at least two incbia
higher than the street, and when tho wheels of
tho vehiclo comes in contact with the walk,
they will havo to jump square up, and if the
wagon is loaded something is liound to give
w.y or Ik) badly strained. This morning tho
meat wagon belonging to Messrs. West and
McGregor, on Commercial utrect, was loaded
and Innng driven at a rapid rate, runt when it
eamo to tho crossing at tho corner of Commcr
oitl and Court streets, tho axle of tho loft hind
wheel broke square oil' at tho Hiumldcr, lotting
tho end of tho wagon drop down while tho
driver rolled one way in thu mud and the wheel
tho other: tho horses stood perfectly quiet as
though thoy luul Wn used to just such break
downs from careless drivers. Tho Jehu when
ho got up, was the most complcto mud man we

THIRD OR TZTTS CItASS.
Salkm, Jan. 10, 1878.
I noticed in one of our city papers lately tho
report of, tho Chcif Knginoorof tho Firo Dejxu-t-mcut,
tliat considorablu strew aud cnjutal w at
tempted to bo mado out of tho recent "onplcos
antnoss" between tho City Council and the Firo
Department in regard to tho increase of insur
ance rates on property in this city, or reducing
tho city from a third clans to a fifth. In regard
to tho trouble or misunderstanding tatwveti tho
City Council and tho Department, I do not pro
pose to take sides, but in regard fc tho insur
ance I wish to make a few obsenntiotii.
Judging from tho Chief Engineer's report, all
of the property holdurs in Uits city were in n
business eeno, bound to have their proiiorty in.
Btircd. Aud a man who did not m do, v,.w
lacking in judgment I reipeetfullv beg leave
to take tsHtie. i neltovo noiiisiiy mai n uiero
wis not a 8ttiglo dollar of insurance m tins burg
it would bo far bettor olt. That the number of
fires keen tweo with the number of buddings
and amounts insured. I tlo not say that a man
will lire his building as soon ni the policy h
taken out, but it is a premium for cirelcsstii-M
or criminal ncgligcnco In quarters that we little
think of. Tho methodical and natural instinct
ive caro in regard to looking to proper extin
guishing of fire, when the place of business is
closed up, or dwelling houso left for a short
time, is not cultivated as it should be, but "let
it rip" style of doing business is engendered;
"it is insured anyhow." Ashes from tho stovet
are not properly cared for or looked after; they
aro thrown into anything without examination,
whether alive cools aro in them or not Oils
used for lights are carelessly handled or But
about where thoy may become overheated.
Itags impregnated with oil or grease allowed to
accumulate inoddcorncrs uoar chimneys or gar
rota or lxick yards, and spontaneous combustion
engendered, and tho many laws of chemistry
not studied or looked aftor that should be, and
would bo if tho property was not insured. In
fact, it has becotno so prevalent, that nho first
question asked after tho location of a fire is as
certained, "how much insurance!" A natural
sequence of tho unfortunate custom of insurance.
"A houso not insured ilcol not burn Mill noon
becomo an aphorism, aud as proof, of all tho
houses that nave burned or partially so in this
city for the last live years, at least 00 l.T cent
had more or lees insurance on thciu.
And tho action of thu insurance companioa in
mincing Salem to n fifth-rate city in their scale
is a bkwaitig, and should they withdraw all of
their business philanthropy all of tho citucus
(except agents) would arise and roll them
blessed, while tho tire aniwrntus would compar
atively rust for want of use,
