There are many high-class promoters
and contractors In every city who are
at present "out of a job" owing to the

and energies to the greatest advantage,
both to themselves and the public. 1t
will certainly require many years of
active and Intelligent enterprise I'm all
quarters of the globe to build the great
gas works that will surely spring from
and follow the Introduction of these
new and progressive ideas and this
superb process and apparatus for the
manufacture of gas into the work of
the mechanical and Industrial world.
