MUNICIPAL FIRE INSURANCE.
TO THE EDITOR. , Sir— As far as 1 remember you aro not favourable to municipal firo insurance, bnt you will uoihnps allow mo spaoo to express my gratification at tho great strido in ad- , V.IIICO taken by the City Council in regard to it That it should havo required tho double voto of tho ilayor to arrest its progress soom.i to mo a siguinoant and hopofnl sign of tho times. His statement that tho wholo principle of municipal funds was entirely opposed to the proposal of municipal inauranco is ono of tlioso dark sayings tho meaning of which, hko tho road to Old (iobbo's houso, is marvollonsly hard to hit. I havo not succeeded 111 hitting it. Tlic ratepayers owe Councillor Parsons a dobt of grutitudo for his mhocacr of a proposal which, if put into practical operation, I am satisfied would ronfer » groat benefit upon ovory ownor of hoiiso property in tho city, lam. &c, WiLiiiAsi Hutchison. l'Jth August.
