Spokane Fire

Printer-friendly versionSend by email

On June 13, 1889, the Spokane newspaper printed an editorial pleading for the establishment of a fire department. Seattle had recently been ravaged by fire, and the paper desired to prevent the same calamity from happening in Spokane. Nothing, however, was done.

Two months later Spokane burned to the ground.
