Kmuny said he would move an amendment that the hydrent'ssked by the Rsthbun flrm be granted-they desired no bonus or remission oitaxes, and ifthe town would not at least protect their business from fire it was manifesting a. poor spirit towards such an insportent industry. Mayor an5 admitted that he was surprised at the action of the committeeâ€" at a previous meeting 8 members of the council out or 10 had supported the putting in of a hydrant. He had taken M. Rubin down to look over the ground Conn. KILLABY said Coun. Graham was evidently taking the ground that as the Rathbun business was established here the firm need not be considered further. Conn. TOUCHBUBN could see no distinc- tion between Mr. Rathbun’s request for a hydrant and that made by a number of south ward citizens some time ago for the protection of their property. When the waterworks system was put down the 65 hydrants were located to cover the town as fairly as possible until its growth, or the purchase of the system, permitted an extension; there had been no growth as yet and if they granted hydrants when- ever asked the cost would be increasing all the time, and the general rate of taxation was now too high. At first Mr. Bathbun wanted a hydrant to protect the millâ€" when that was killed an employee of the company, who sits in the council, said it was necessary for the protection of the yard. If the object is to protect the mill the firm could do it better by erecting a huge tank on the hill close by. The coun- cil should not be asked to do anything so near the end of the yearâ€"the mill will close down shortly, and a halt-year's rent of a hydrant would be saved by leaving the matter to the incoming council. He was surprised to hear the mayor support the hydrant so strongly when other men Just as capable of forming a correct opin- ion as he opposed itâ€"he did not wonder at Conn. Killaby doing soâ€"he was working for the company and his bread and butter. m line nymuu, m... u-.. _. -rt there was any chance of securing water- takers he would support it quickly enough. Conn. GRAHAM said the committee had come to the conclusion, when the ground had been measured, that the mill would be no better protected with one hydrant than it was at present, and Mr. Barbie was of the same opinion. Of course another hydrant would increase the safety of the stock in the yards, but the hydrant had not been demanded with that object. Even if the council put in two hydrants at a cost of $90 per year the reduction on Mr. Rathburns mill insurance would be but one quarter per cent., or $10 on an assessment cf $4,000. He had also learned from the underwriters that even it the town placed tour hydrants in the yard the rate of insurance on the stock would not be lowered one cent in consequence. It had been said that Mr. Bathbun might remove his mill elsewhere if protection is not granted-when the supply of timber gave out they might do so, but they were not likely to do so because the council refused to incur a large annual expense in order to save them $10 insurance on their Conn. Guam said that Dsp.-resve Robson was imagining a case and in- venting arguments to bolster it up. The council should deal with feet, not fancies. There was really no difl’erence between Mr. Rathtmn’s property and that owned by citizens on any unprotected street. in.

In view of the fact that requests torhydrants had come in from citizens whose property and the lives of their families were in dan- ger in case of fire, he thought it would be well to allow the matter to rest for the present. 7 -- [L n; “A__1.1 L- I”arm.- GILLOGLY thought it would be wise to leave the matter In the hands of the new council. Reeve KYLIE said it was not necessary to take Mr. Begbie’e word or Mr. Touehbnrn e wordâ€"it must be plain to every man that one hydrant’in a big lumber yard situated over half a mile from the fire hall would be no protection whatever it the mill caught fire, and the mill was the employ- ment-giving portion of the business. It the mayor or others held that the protec- tion of Mr. Rathbnn'e mill was more im portant than saving the dwellings of citi- zens who had every dollar invested in their little homeathen he (Kylie) oonldnot agree with them. Even if the firemen were able to fly across the river they would arrive too late to save a trams mill.

Instances were known where old people living with relatives and others -vv 'â€" ‘.__e Mr. CONNonLYâ€"“It will represent only $120 allowing for the rents we get.” Reeve Km explained that he was not going to oppose the committee's sugges- tion, but it was not just in accordance with his own idea. They might figure the rent as close upon $200, which was 10 per cent. upon the price of the building. Inhis mind it was a question if, when spring comes, they could get some at the casual recipients of charity to leave such a comfortable home. They might depend upon getting outsiders into the home, but it would not be as easy to get paid for their keepâ€"in the present home they had one outsider but had never been able to get a cent for her maintenance.
