THE AMERICUS DAILY TIMES-RECORDER: THURSDAY, APRIL 16, 1891.
WE WILL HAVE IT.
A REPRESENTATIVE OF THE GAME-
WELL FIRE ALARM HERE
Americas Will IIivp an E'ectrlc Fire
Alarm Sy.trm at an Early Date—All Seem
to Want It—Something of the System anil
lte Benefit*.
Amoricus will soon have an electric
fire alarm system.
Tills seems to be the wish of the peo
ple, and is certainly a necessity.
The Introduction of such a system has
long been talked of, hut only now are
the first steps towards its adoption be
ing taken.
Yesterday Mr. J. D. Clark, represent
ing the Gamowell company, arrived in
Americus, and spent the day in talking
to citizens. The company he represents
has put up electric fire alarms In Atlan
ta, Savannah, Augusta, Macon, Colum
bus, Athens, Rome and Brunswick,
all of which cities seem to be more than
pleased.
Mr. Clark talked, among others, with
Mayor Felder, chairman Davenport of
the Are committee of the city council,
and chief Bivins. All of these gentle
men are In favor of putting in the sys
tem here, and everybody else seems to
agree with them.
A (list-class system can be put in for
(2,000 or less, giving us some fifteen
stations.
Americus is now larger than many of
the cities having the system in opera
tion, and we should certainly adopt it.
It furnishes every property holder the
means near at hand in case of fire for
giving an instantaneous and definite
alarm, thus saving a great deal of time
which is inevitably lost after the discov
ery of a fire where the present means
are relied upon. It is the cheapest in
surance which property holders can se
cure upon their buildings, and is the
only insurance which a city, in its cor
porate capacity, can place upon the
property generally, from which its rev
enue is derived in the shape of taxes.
Each building burned is a source of rev
enue gone. It saves all the running ex
penses through the almost entiro sup
pression of false alarms, and the unnec
essary wear and tear of fire apparatus.
It is very Important to property holders,
in that it gives them the exact location
of a fire night or day, and thus lets them
know whether any of their property is
in danger.
The putting in of such a system will
certainly be of great convenience, and
direct good, and all in the city are in
favor of iL
Until the new city hall is completed it
can not well be done, but in a few weeks
after that building is ready for occu
pancy, we will surely have our fire
alarms turned in by means of the electric
current
The cost Is cheap, and many thousands
of dollars will be saved.
Mr. Clark leaves this afternoon, but
will return in a few weeks, and make a
definite bid for the work.
