The Gazette learns from a reliable source that on Thursday of this week Erie Railroad Company took title to the tracts of land knov/n as the Kane and Carpenter lots, as a site for the nev/ station which the company will eventually erect in Monroe. This will probably end the long fight over sites, and while it certainly does not please the greater number of Monroe residents, commu ters or business men, the Gazette believes half a loaf is better than none at all, and the village does re quire a new station.

Here the companies were ofllcially and in due and regular forzn wel comed in behnlf of their hosts, the Mombasha Fire Company, and the Village of Monroe. Rev. \W. A. Eisenhart, a member of the local fire company, presided. In behalf of the local fire organization the guests were received by Frederick Hulse Esq.,in a well prepared speech of welcome. In his remarks to the mpanies in general Mr. Hulse said, nong other things: “ It is a most fitting custom that you firemen have, of visiting one another nov/ and then. A visit is a good thing; good alike for the hosts and the guests. It brings oxit the best traits of all, and illustrates human nature at its very beat. It IS a tendency to allay the petty alousies which often creep up among dghboring villages, and it xvidens le circle of one's acquaiiatsnce. Thus it makes life better v/orth the ■ing. Firemen are certainly en ded to the gratitude of their re- pctive communities, and it is well at the communities provide the firemen with suitable quarters, that their rooms may answer the ptirpoae of a Club, to provide opportunities for social intercourse. The several members of a fire company have practically entered into a covenant with their neighbors to sacrifice their own interests in behalf of their tlemen, your communities owe you a debt of gratitude. Mr. Hulse followed in a facetious manner by extending a welcome to each of the visiting companies in turn, telling why the Monroe company was es pecially pleased to entertain ,th*'m, His remarks were received in the spirit presented, amid iaughtei applause.
