FIRE DEPARTMENT DISCUSSED At Special Meeting of Board of Alder- men—Fire Committee Given Power te Accept Fire Truck.

On the resotution about the age limit of the firemen there were as many dif- ferent opinions as there were members present. Alderman Jacobs said that he thought there were many firemen in | the department at present that were over the proposed age Hmit of 45, and they had always Siven sood eervice to the city. Alderman Caisse said that it seemed rather mean of the city to dischiarge the firemen after they had given their services to the city for so many years. He thought that they should be permitted to drop out when ‘they wanted to and that the new re- quirements should pertain-to the new members only. Mayor Dunn then put the question to vote and only a few of the mem- bers voted. The mayor then asked the membefs not VOUNE to explain why they were not voting. Alderman Jenkins explained the rea- son why they should form some set of rules. The firemen were the first to ask for a set of rules, but had been asked to withdraw their petition. A set of rules was needed now that would affect all men of the companies the same. The paid department and the auto fire truck had been forced on the board by the voters of the city. ~Afl- derman Jenkins answered Mr. Caisse’s and Mr. Jacobs’ argument by saying that he did not believe that there were many men in the fire department over 45_years who wanted to fight fire. Mayor Dunn then put the question to vote and only the fire department committee voted. The mayor then asked the other members why they were not voting, as there is a city or- dinance which requires that all mem- bers vote unless they are personally interested and are excused by the pre- siding officer. Then the fur began to fly. Aldermen Caisse, Jacobs and Vaughn asked to be excused from vot- ing, all giving as a reason that they were against making changes. The motion was put before the board nd adopted by a vote of 6 to. 1, only voting against it, Class prize, aimaking the age limits 21 to 45 A motion was proposed which gave the fire committee power to accept the fire truck. Alderman Graves explain- ed that the only clause holding them from accepting the truck under the resolution adopted at the last meeting was in regard to a driver. He read a telegram in which the La France com- offered to send an expert to train ver if the city would accept the truck before June §. Alderman Graves sald that he would pay the expenses of the expert if the La France com- pany did not keep their word, and then the resolution was adopted., Alderman Vaughn asked a few inter- esting questions.. A call man can re- main in the fire houses all that they want except from 11 p. m. till 7 a. mj, when the permanent men are supposed to be sleeping. Honorary members will have no more privileges than the or- dinary citizens.
