right to use what water is needed at the
farm. The company intend to put large
gang of workmen on Immediately, to build
the reservoir and lay pipes to connect it with

ing operations at the Iron Works. Speaking
with hin Of iron shipbuildine inquired:
do Won think the Ksnnebec can compete
successfully With the Delaware in the con-
struction of iron shipes'
''Cerralnly, I do" said he. The Della
ware will have . small advantage in q tribe
lower freight rates upon material, but in a
healthy climate favorable 10 hard work, in
abundance of the right kind of help, freedom
from strikes and other labor troubles the
kennebee will have decided and very im-
portant advantage. When the business of
building iron ships was located at Glasgow
instead Of near London. one great considera-
ton was the avoidance of labor troubles
which infest large cities and contiguous
places. The result has proved the wisdom
of the selection. 1t is one o. the causes
which has made iron ship-bullding a success
IN that country. Bath is nearly in the same
latitude as Glasgow. and iron ships can be
built just as well here as there. Ii is better
TO have the works for building at some dis.
lance from such large cities as New York
and Philadt lphis.- Bath is as good loca-
ton can be found, and the business if
properly conducted and supplied with the
necessary capital will grow TO be q great
and prosperous industry"
lis not this machine shop which you are
now experimenting the nrst step towards
the full establishment of the industry OF
building iron ships At this placer"
1T is. We shall commence preparing a
yard for building very soon. Other yards and
other shops will follow"
1t was time for the train and left the
genial superintendent feeling that Bath is in
earnest about building iron ships and will
succeed. There is some want of capital
however, more than Bath, though wealthy
CITY can supply. Up-river towns and cities
might help their neighbor by putting their
spare thousands into this new enterprise, or
into the vessels which may spring from it.
know some men in Augusta have invested in
Bath vessels. Some have been fortunate and
some unfortunate in their investments, but on
an average money in good vessels with COM
petent captains will pay better interest than
in DO IS or stocks, and besides it will aid TO
build up an industry on the kennebec that
will be of lasting benefit to all this section of
country.
