Fire brigade resignations over $1000 insurance plan
Councillor Mansell pushed $1000 accident insurance for thirty firemen at $3 each, but the council rejected the measure. Many firemen resigned, leaving the brigade disorganized as critics warn of greater risk to property and lives without protection. Yorkton and other towns provide larger benefits, intensifying local criticism of the aldermen’s decision.

In Ottawa last week Dr. Neely and Jas. Mc Kay urged government action to force CPR to fulfil a 35 year old charter for a line from Sheho to Prince Albert. Hon. Mr. Emmerson condemned the railway as “effrontery” and a parliament fraud while CPR vice president George S. Bary defended the company amid press interviews and mixed farming district concerns.
