A Hostler of Rome r< porter mat Major Zack Hargrove this morning and secured from hies. an impromptu interview that shows up one of the wonderful posibilitiee of Rome's resources. Tire Hustlers b®bby: “Dam the Etowah” drew the Majors attention some time ago and was the entering wedge of this mornings interview. “I am glad to see you adv see ing the dam for the Etowah, Baid Major Hargroye. “Five years ag® I decided that Ro ne's salvation lay, largely in the developing ot one ofher resources and that was the harnessing of the Etowak river and making those rushing waters operate our factories and shops w our machinery and our street cars “Now my plan is thin, go to Reyno d‘a Bend six miles above the city and cut a cannal across the bend at. the base of th« foot o the bills, plant your electrical machines on the hill by the canal and above high water mark and transmit your power to the city by a sable laid along the bed of tha river/ 4 Asked about the river at Rey nold s Bend and the canal and water fall Major Hargrove said: At Bend the river makes a curve of four and one half miles and has a fall of 18ft. The neck ®r cut off, or rather the canal would be through loamy land, no rock, along the base of a hill, and less than half a mile long.” “Now,” continued he, “let the big electric plant be put in above highwator mark and then trans mit the power to the city by a ca ble laid along the river’s bed 1 am imfermed that 90 per cent of it &i be transmitted in thismauner. Mr. Hargrove was asked abou' the dam and said that the river was not over four feet deep, that he had waded it many a time wh.le in bathing. He said further that several thous and horse power could be secured and that the upper plant would not interfere with other dams that could be put i« between the Re; uelds dam and the city. “I made a speech ‘2O years ago,“ said Mr. Hargrove advoc ting the use of covict lad er on the pubiic roads and today I drive to and from the city over a macadamized road, built bv convict labor; and the stone of that road was crushed from marble, quarried on my land.” .. Iwas mayor of Roma when the present water works system was inaa gerated, and I have always been proud of the fact." “I was the first nsan toadvocate a street car line for the city and had the pleasure of planting the first cross tie and laying the first iron. “I was in the first mass nieetie called in the interest of the Rome au Chattanooga railroad. ” ‘I was among the fust advocates of Rome's present public school sys tem and today believe we have one of the best in the state. I have seen all these enterprises, conceived years and years ago battle through the hard days of baby hood and devolope into institutv ns of which we are all proud, and I hon estly believe that I shall yet live to see the machinery of our city and the machinery ®f scores of new plants run by the harnessed power of the Itowah, when I do I shall feel like saying “Lord now let thy servant de part in pease.” Major Hargrove is indeed a re ma kanle man and wo hope he may live to a ripe old age —and keep out of politics. And hares to the day that he shall see the Etowah danred. IT® IMS. Will be sVom "J Radio’s of New York, ON EASTER SUNDAY 1 Also High Toped Beets. New York Politics getting Warm. Who will I be the Next Mayer ot the great Metropolis. New York, March 21, 1894, — Many persons in New York who have been warring with Tammany eorruption this winter and spring are complaining that the better el ement's leaders are not in every case aiding them. This fact is ad mitted by the loaders in question, bit they account for their inac tivity by saying that there is dan ger of a revulsion of feeling if the tiger is found to be hounded un fairly. It is asserted that Mr. Cro ker himself has devised a cunning plan t® allow the Tammany oppo nents t« heap vituperation upon the tiger to their heart's content in this preliminary campaign and to make up for it when the war really begins by getting the bene fit of the revulsion which he ex pects will set in. In fact, it seems that Mr. Gilroy has written a letter to some of the sachems warning them against the folly of meeting attacks as they are made, but instead to save amuni rion for more desperate extremi ties. But this neat plan of the Tamany leaders is being par'ial -1) frustrated by the discovery of the tactics, and hence, with a few exceptions, there is no abuse heaped on the Tiger by opponents of that anim 1. This will explain what to some Republicans has teemed quee*-, It is violating no confidence to say that one prominisnt Republician pos sesses documents very oempremising to two Tammany magnates which have now been nsed until the con firmatory facts has insured them a gainst proving a boomerang. This to be a prolific season for candidate for the Mayoralty of Mew York. It is significant that they are in nearly every case put toward in the name of the element a faet which indorse the opinions of those who are certain that thetradesunions will have a formidable candidate of their own in the next campaign, and which is giving the Republicans so much hope. The latest man named is Dr. Stan ton Coil • The Central Labor Union and the various organizations of the East side are much impressed in his favor’ and he is the only aristocrat and man of wealth who has alleviated the sufferin * of New York.s poor whohaswon popularity and was a suc cess in the effort. It seems likely that this still young man will Le the cemmaud mg figure in the next great looa issue that cemes before the people of New York. Ils is leoked upon as a municipal wonder. He has the turbulent East Side at his command almost, and is in favor wi ’’ leadersand people there » j really nothing extraordi nary in his making a great run. The present state of things in lo cal New York politics is so unique that were Dr. Stanton Coit to be nominated for the Mayoralty, as appears more than a possibility now, there might happen things, PRINCE ALBERT COATS FOR LADIE’S In the annual dress parade on Sunday next it is promised that the bonnets will not be a circum stance to th® new style in Priucb ; Albert coats for ladies.
