FIRE PROTECTION

Rossland’s escape from total de-
vastation last night was little less
than’ miraculous, and the fire de-
partment did such effective work as
to win the absolute confidence of
the people. A more dangerous mo-
ment fora wide-spread conflagra-
tion could not have occurred, for
the wind was blowing a gale and
carrying a cloud of sparks right
over the business section, Fhe
flames were checked against all the
difficulties of approaching the burn-
ing buildings and the fact that the
wind was carrying a sheet of flame
across an alley to another bunch of
houses. It was in checking the fire at
this point that the department saved
the city. Chisf Guthrie certainly dis-
played extraordinary. executive abil-
ity and won for himself and his men
the unbounded appreciation of the
public. After last night’s good
work the citizens certainly cannot
do tod much for the departmeut.

The fire also emphasized the fact,
that while much-has been said con-
cerning the method of dealing with
the city’s water system, the coun-
-cil’s action has. proven one of wis-
toward i diate pro-

tection. There is no doubt.that a
- more perfect system can be. con-
‘structed, but not in a day. Such
undertakings require time and care-
ful consideration, and property in-
terests are not to be allowed to suf-
ferin the interval. The purpose
has been to make the best of the
present material, by a judicious ex-
penditure of money, before cold
weather makes further work
possible. With the old company it
avas a case of revenue, and mains
were extended in the direction which
the company considered would profit
it most. With the city,. it is'a ques-
tion of providing the best and most
sefficient service and protection for
the community by extending mains
and establishing hydrants where
most needed. Where new mains
sare being laid, they are with a view
to forming a part of a complete sys-
‘tem for the future, and pipe of
tthe requisite size is being laid.
It will be remembered that last win-
ter the city was without water, and
avas in imminent danger. It is to
prevent such a recurrence that the
present plan of work is being fol-
lowed. This is necessary for the
immediate extension of the system,
and the placing of hydrants in the
.outlying sections. The plan is to
\provide hydrants for the Montreal
townsite addition, for that portion
.of the city in the vicinity of the hos-
pital, and again in the northerly
sectionsurr the schoolk
It must be apparent that a fire in
any of these sections, and no water
protection, would mean the total
destruction. of the city, and it is
hoped to avoid such a conflagration |
by extending and utilizing the pres-
ent system to tide over the winter.
Even if a portion of the money now

im-

It happened that an insurance in-
spector was in the cily at the time
of last night’s fire and was not only
pleased with the efficiency of the
department, but said he had expec-

ted as much, from the regularity
with which they practiced. The
city is using every means to afford
proper protection and business men
are willing to tax themselves to the
farthest point, but they expect the
underwriters to recognize this fact
by a reduction of insurance rates.
They don’t want a tax at both ends.
