THE FIRE LIMIT LAW.
Within the past month some efforts
have been made to repeal our Fire Lim
it Law as regard Main street. When
this matter was first presented to the j
Herald, our first thouerht was that it I
would be an injustice to all those who
had already been forced to build brick
buildings, thereby raising their insur
ance and otherwise rendering the street
more insecure than at present. We
said hastily, "no'more frame shanties
for us;" and we refused to sign the pe
tition, on second thought, and a closer
observation of the real interests of the
town, with the true rights of all par
ties considered, we are led to the con
clusion that the fire limit ordinance, as
it is called, may be greatly modified and
result in much good toour town. If
true, as reported to us. not one single
new building has beet) put .up on Main
street since this fire limit went into ef
fect. We are not getting rid of our
old frame shanties at all, because these
hard times men cannot afford to build
brick stores. It certainly seems to us
that new, substantial wooden build
ings would be preferable and safer for
everyone, than old rickety frames, and
if the modification of this law will in
duce liie building of good new wooden
structures, instead of the row of shells
on some parts of Main street, it would
be a great blessing to the town. With
all this, it is not just to the owners of
In ick buildings to force a frame building
in beside them and thus increase their
risk and expense. To obviate this
the Council might provide that no
frame building should be built or mov
ed on Main street without the consent of
the property holders on each side and
also define exactly the kind of build
ing, not to exceed It or 10 feet high, (so
that water could be readily thrown all
over the roof.) of good sized timbers
and with chimneys built from the
ground up. Such buildings would re
duce the risks and increase the safety
of all by fire. Think of it gentlemen all
round.
