WHAT :OF ,THE BY•LAY?
On • Monday of next week, the tiro-.
perty owners, of Lucknow ,who .come
mita to vote will decide an; important
matter, They will decide for or :again
st • the tnataallation of a complete
waterworks • for fire pfotectiona ;and,
domestic use. ' • ' •
That we need better fire-pr-oteetion
works was sutiiciently ,demonstrated
during; the past. week. The: force • of
water. at'the',hotel fire was better than
expected, butt what did' it amount to?
There were' two :fairly good streams
at7the •front; and one at the back, but
neither. would reach the roof nor the
third story windows:, 'That was; bad,
as you,.nust get above a fire•,to get
it .out. When a ' four ,ki , stream was
tried. the pressure 'Went: down so thatall', four were 'almost worthless. Now
•,yuppoie theta, fire had started on the
roof • of another building. The situs-
tion.would be that,water from the
hose would not 'reach it, and the fire=
hien, would have to resort to the 'buck-„
et. In fact that.•is just. -what happened
where in' spite of the dampness,.
in the, .ease of Mia' Little's house,
ders..set fire totho shingles, That the
village • escaped •'a ' general conflagra-
tion was due. to . the snow and absence
of strong wind, and not to our °water -

It should not be forgotten, that all

due to the fact• that it' :was the lowest

But it is r G'eneral'ly aeeepted that
we'rieed better fire -protection water
work's; sothat- the choice will beas
to thelarger scheme involving dom-
estic water. As 'tate by-law .will be
voted on, it will be that or nothing
for the present. The reeve and coup-
cillors, who have studied the problem
•from every angle came to the conclu-
-cion that the installation ; of an all-
around service would be the better
'plan. In the event of the defeat of the
by-law resort musti be had to the ex-
penditure of 20.' to 40 thousand dol-
lars on improved fire protection, de-
pending -upon how efficient the plant
w.ouid'be. And there' is this to be con.
stared; that there would be revenue
from . a• .domestic water supply', and
none at .all from fire protection works
alone ---and the further •considtlration
that_ we may at any time be called
upon to put in'domestic'water—that,
in fact, is a. certainty, of the future.
