VIEWS OF PROPERTY OWNERS

a
In Favor of Two Fire Stations

in the Business Center
of Town.

That there should be two fire stations
in Rossland seems to be the undivided
opinion of some of the heaviest property
owners. Were the station located on
000| Washington and Second avenue, the
proposed gite, the east and west end of
town would practically -be left unpro-
tected. Even with a down-hill run, the
volunteers would have the breath

would reach the bottom, thereby rend-
ering them useless and giving the flames
plenty of time to get well under way.
Citizens believe that the heavy prop-
erty owners, where the buildings are in
a solid mass, should receive the most
attention. In order to do this the sta-
tions should be located centrally. Then
should a fire burst forth the force could
be on the spot in an instant and equelch
the flames before they did serious dam-

QUESTION OF SEWERS

Frank Hanna Says Trail Has

WHY TRAIL OBJECTS

JUBILEE POSTAGE STAMPS.

On June 10 the Canadian Postoffices

. Would Be Folly to Join with

Rossland in the Proposed
Scheme.

Frank Hanna, of Trail was in town
, and in with a
representative of the Rezooun in
reference to Trail joining Rossland in a
sewerage system, said it would not be
- | practicable to do so. That Trail would | fy
have trouble enough to take care of her
own offal, on account of the annual rise
of the Columbia river. A _system-toac-
comodate Rossland without turning her
filth into the very door yards of the Trail
people, would have to pass

ve |abovea great portion of their town,

to reach the river. He says it would be
folly to think of joining a system from
Rossland that would not accommodate
the whole town of Trail, for that would
necessitate two systems for Trail, which
would also be out of the question. The
water now is rising in the closets and
cesspools at Trail, in the lower portions.
It can well be immagined the state of
affairs which would exist there if the
sewerage from Rossland were turned
into pipes low enough to accommodate
Trail. Trail will evidently have enough
trouble of her own and _ will doubtless

have to lay pipes down the river a con-

'PO- | siderable distance to get sufficient fall

for the lower portions of the town.
