night tbis week whilst sitting at bis

of tbe deed. An open foe is disa^
greeable enough, but uu assassin, who
takes tbe cover of night to do bis vile
work, is something to be dreaded

thnt business was intended. Coach

done up a good job on No. 5. A bag

infer that tbe B. & W. intend giving
more comfort to tbe traveling pnblic.

bra-1 ly hurt. Hr was taken ou to bis
daughter's in Atlanta. We endeav
ored to secure partienlnis, but failed
learn more than we have given.
Water and Gn.
We submit to our readers to-day
tbe fall text of tbe coutract as agreed
upon by Messrs. Jeter and Board
man aud tbe City Council. On tbe 12th
inst. our citizens will be called upon
to approve or disapprove tbe same
tbe ballot-box. If a majority id given
“for gus and water,” then tbo con
tractors will put down tbe works
otborwise not. It remains, there
fore, for tbe people to - say what they
wish. There is much to be said on
either side of tbe question. We see
objections that we would like re
moved, but tbe objections we see oth
ers do .not see, and those of others
we do not see. If tbis contract, then,
is tbe best we can get, it remains for
us to say whether wo will take it or
not. We propose voting for tbe con
tract, believing it to be tbe best
thing to be done with tbe light be
fore us. Below we append a series
of reasons why we should ratify the
contract, and we are honest in our
convictions on tbe subject.
REASONS.
1. Because it will enhance tbe value
of every lot reached by tbe water end
gas uiuins. If tbis be true then those
not reached must be benefited indi
reotly.
2. By accepting we bring to our
city $00,000 of other people’s money
and plant it bere, besides bringing
with it a man whose record is that of
a developer. Go to Hawkinsville and
see what be has accomplished.
3. Strangers coming to onr city will
no longer say, as did one last week,
on seeing our great water boon wast
ing, “Tbis is a dead town, else they
would not allow tbis.”
4. It will be tbe means, to a great
extent, of getting for us that great
need, a winter hotel.- Without wuter
aud gae privileges, it will bo many a
day beforo we get that boon.
5. It will be tbe moans of increaS'
ing our population by immigration,
and as a result increase our wealth ns
a city and hence our revenue, and,
naturally, onr advantages and im
provements.
G. It is as reasonable as we could
expect. No man is going to plant
$60,000 bero without expecting to get
something in return. Tbis is u plain
business proposition.
7. It is tbe only way we can expect
to get these privileges, as we are not
able to get them ourselves. Besides,
if we were able, it would be bad poli
cy anyway for tbe city to attempt to
run either water or gas works.
8. The majority of tbe tax-payers
want it, uud tbe needs of tho city de
mand it. We don’t think we are tbe
least iu error in tbe above proposition.
We have failed, so far, to find a heavy
taxpayer who does not want tbe con
tract ratified. If they can stand it,
be lessor lights, financially, surely
ought to be able. That is, if any evil
can come of it, either in taxes or oth
erwise.
9. It will lower insurance, for in-
surauco always depends on tbe amount
risk and tbe facilities for putting
out fires. Our present facilities are
utterly inadequate—hence, wo pay ail
tbe way from 2 to 5 per cent in tbe
business portions. Tbis should not
be, nnd would not be if we bad tbo
water facilities offered, for we would
only bave to connect a hose pipe to a
hydrant, nnd can be ready to extin
guish tbe flames, and not bave to
wait until tbe fire got under such
headway that we could scarcely han
dle it, and just then bave a messen
ger t-> announce, us we have heard,
that I be water bud given out, or
some-bing of tbnt p- rt. With proper
water faci'ities insurance should not
more than half what it now is.
10. We would have better lights
tor very little more than we am now
besides improving onr sani
tary condition ns n city for water
works demand a system of sewerage
Thus tbe filth of tbe city that now
becomes nhsorbed in the enrth will
be carried off.
✓
11. If it does no good, it can do no
barm to individuals. Parties living
out of the favored district,. for in
stance, would pay no more taxes than | ,r " 1 ‘
now—consequently be iu no wise in
jured.
12. Wo would be paying very little
more muuey than now, for we learn
(rum tbe Clerk aud Treasurer that be
bus paid out on account of street
lumps tbe pust twelve months about
twelve or tbirteen hundred dollars,
aud on tbe waterworks probably six
hundred. He estimates tbo two to be
costing now $2,000 per annum. So
you observe the ditt'ereuce is uot so
great, between wbat is being paid navv
and wbat is to be paid, and that iif-
fereuce is uot to be weighed for one
moment when we consider tbe vast
amount of difference iu tbe service
be rendered.
