Council. for kfaIndoo read the minutes of the meeting of Alert Fire Brigade in which they put G A. Newton as first choice and Thos 3 Elliott as second choice for Chief of Brigade. The Firemen also understood that position was to be divided. Chief of Flre Brigade to receive $35 per year and Caretaker of Waterworks $65 per year. G A Newton was heard in the matter. He said be did not appear in his own behalf, but in the interests of the Brigade. The Firemen, he said, were of the opinion that position was to be divided. The Firemen had met that evening and they. did not think it would be fair to appoint Mr Vannorman Chief of the Brigade when he was not a firemen. ,He. had understood Mr Vannorman to say he was satisfied to take $65 per year for taking care of Waterworks an d $20 per year far an ordinary fireman. The firemen did ' not think Mr Vannorman eould attend to both the duties of Chief Constable ,and Chief of the Fire Brigade, but they would be pleaeed'to have him as a• fireman and not as Chief,. Chief Vannorman thought that Mr Newton had misunderstood him. He was of the opinion that he was to receive both the Chiefehip of tbe Fire Brigade and Caretaker of Waterworks; Counpillor Gregory thought. Councillor Mcrndoo was flattering our Chief: too much.
