FIRE DEPARTMENT
Members of Organization
, Meet and Disband
for Ever
The Albany Volunteer Fire Depart
ment ia no more. The members of
the organization met last night and
diabanded and voted to aell all of their
furniture, fixtures and clubroom
aories.
Since the organization of the paid
department there haa been some dis
satisfaction among members of the
volunteer aggregation. There waa the
feeling among them that the city
council and the city in general did not
fully appreciate their services and
sacrifices and little inclination was
manifested in doing anything for
them.. It was conaidered the beat ao-
lution to the trouble to disband and
permit a new organization to start
over again.
The members of the paid depart
ment purchased the pool table, chairs
and some of the other equipment.
There are aeven paid men included in
the 18 who were in good standing in
the volunteer organization, and it was
an easy matter to take the old items
, over. '
The members of the volunteer de
partment stated that while they did
not care to continue their organiza
tion, thaf in case of a fire every man
would gladly be on the ground to do
bis biU, Pay is no consideration with
the members.
The officers of tne old organization
were: John M. French, president; Roy
Nuttine. secretary and L. B. Hixson
Jr., treasurer.

STEEL MAKES PLEA
FOR LINN COUNTY'S
CRATER LAKE PARK
Gives Interesting Address at
Chamber of Commerce
Dinner at Hotel Albany ;
Indorsement Given.
h ORMER ALBANYITE
Boys Conference is Explain
ed by School Superintend
ent and Committee Named
to Help Feed Visitors.
A splendid dinner, a abort talk
by Uncle Sam Hampton, a little
business, and a Bowery disclosure
on Crater Lake by WiU G. Steel,
former Albany newspaper mm,
composed the subjects before the
Albaey Chamber of Commerce
meeting at the Hotel Albany last
evening.
Mr. Steel painted a picture of Crat
er Lake, reviewing his struggles to
secure recognition from the govern
ment and funds for the improvement
of the scenic wonder, and before he
was through he had the indorsement
of the Chamber for the projected road
improvements in the park and the
secretary was instructed to write
Oregon's delegation in congress ask
ing that this be made a part of Sena
tor McNary's bill. .
Mr. Steel was an Albany resident
40 years ago when he was one of the
founders of the Albany Herald. He
spoke of the old tuners he knew at
that time, C. H. Stewart, W. R. Bil-i
yeu being Stated act the same table
with him.
Has Early Impressions
Mr. Steel said that bis first impres
sion of Crater Lake was gained when
he was a boy in school in Kansas 50
years ago. He was eating his lunch.
which he carried wrapped up m a.
rpwutminT Tn that turner h uw an
account of the wonder lake which had
Ka.. ;..nv.i ktit v.A a., ii
of it were highly overdrawn. But
from that time on he had the desire
to come to Oregon and see the 'lake.
He had never seen any mountains be
fore that time. .
"With three brothers living iiv Port
land, Mr. Steel started westward two
years later, finding one man who had
years Jater. For seven years after
his arrival he kept up an inquiry
about the lake, finding one man who
had heard about it. Two years later
he found a man who had actually seen
it and four years later, in 1885, he"
organized a party to make a trip
there. The "start was made from what
is now Klamath Falls.
Worked Many Years :
His first impressions were even
more pronounced than were his mental
picture and from that time on he com
menced to plan for-a national park
and for means to protect the lake and
surroundings from the encroachments
of civilization.- Upon his own initi
ative he later wrote stories for east
em papers, made trip; to Washington
and finally got government support
for carrying out his ideas. It took 17
years until congress, on May 27, 1902
passed the bill incorporating the park.
He later got $10,000 for a survey and
in 1912 he got a continuing appropria
tion of $700,000 from congress, about
$400,000 of which has already been
spent. , '
The park has recently been enlarged
to include the territory 10 miles north
including Diamond Lake, Mt. Thiel
sen and other scenic wonders, and
now the problem is to extend roads to
connect all of these places to make it
the scenic wonder of the world. The
park contains 249 square miles and
the 'additional terirtory will add an
other 130 square miles.
Has Extensive Plans
Mr. Steel's plans for the develop
ment of the park include the making
of roads over the mountains across
the Santiam Pass, up the McKenxie
and other accessable routes from the
north .to open the park to people on
this side of Medford. He urged the
Chamber of Commerce to do all pos
sible in getting the government to
build the Foster-Bend road and to help
In other ways. Senator Cusick made
the motion civinj this Indorsement.
