FORT VALLEYS WATER WORKS.
The People to Vote on the Question
in February.


FoRT VALLEY, GA, Dec. 22.-Ths people
of this city are jubilant over the passage of
a bill by the legislature authorizing Fort
Valley to issue bonds to erect wa,e- works.
The law will be submitted to the qualified
voters here early in February FOR ratiflca-
ton, and there is no doubt that 1t will be
ratified overwhelmingly.
The inquiries received daily fer Fort
Valley bonds lead our city authorities Co
believe they can be sold at a good figure. as
the town is not bonded and does not owe a
dollar.
Water works will do great deal for Fort
Valley, for in the past canning factories,
crate and basket factories. cotton COM
presses and the like have been virtually
barred out for want of water.
Most prominent among the above in
duStrles, d the first that will be erected,
Will. no doubt, be compress. Several
large exporters in Savannah have had their
eyes on Fort Valley as an excellent location
for compress, and if the water works are
secured, they, with ass ciates Of this place,
will erect large compress In time for next
years crop.
The two new guano factories-fhe Peo-
pies and Il. c. Harris'-will commences
business early in January, employing be-
tween the two fifty or one hundred hands,
which will greatly increase the weekly trade
of our merchants. Fort Valley is still
climbing up IN population and Importance.

The Bath Iron Works to Be Intrustel
With It's Construction.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 22--The contract for
the building OF an armored hsrbor defense
ram, for which proposals were received
Saturday at the navy department, will
probably be awarded to the Bath Iron
Works, the only bidder. The price was
S9S0OO0, but the company stipulated that
the clause providing for the rejection of
the vessel if she should fail to make seven
teen knots an hour should be left out of the
contract.
REFERRED TO BOARD.
Secretary Tracy referred the bid to the
board of construction, consisting Of the
chiefs of the bureaus of construction, engi-
neering and ordnance, and this morning
they reported to him that in thsir opinion
the contract should be awarded 10
the Bath company, provided the OBJ
leotlons to the clause were with
drawn. They preferred this course to
re-advertising of building the vessel in a
navy yard. The president of the Bath
company, Gen. Thomas Hyde, who is now
IN the city, was consulted. and agreed to
the conditions. The bid will probably not
be accepted.
The bids for the torpedo boat have been

Hence the majority oi free trade arguments .a;e repeli,ions from for sign writers whose experience was lim- ited to nations of restricted resources and necessarily dependent. on other countries for the means of subsistiug their peoples.
 The conception ofa continental nation like the United States with population combining the ingenuity and intelli- genoe required in al lines of manufae,- ures, and the necessary resources of the soil and climate for producing every thing required by its people. aside from a few strictly tropical products. had no place in the visions of the writers who are now daily quoted as authority tor the universal free trade toward which the self-s,yled reformers are directed.
