Butte Fire Brigade Fund To Be Used For Equipment
After defraying Fourth expenses the Finance Committee holds an unexpended balance of 203.75 to aid in forming a Butte Fire Company. They plan a reservoir hydrant system with a high water tower, two or three rubber hoses, and a light base cart. If water from mines is unavailable a steam engine may be sought. Public effort is urged to form the brigade and utilize the funds. Helena’s history of delayed reliability is cited to urge prompt action.
