G. Il. Timpson, supervisor of main
tenance of way for the Erie, with
headquarters at Gallon, was in the
city this morning, drawing up an
estimate of the cost In effecting the
work planned by local citizens for
lowering the road beds OF tracks
running through the north part Of
town.
Timpson pronounced such an idea
a most absurd one. why they
would have to sell the whole city Of
Marion In order to begin to effect
such an Improvement" he declared.
1T will cost, as nearly as | can
figure. In the neighborkood of a
million and quarter dollars to
sink the tracks, and effect such 9TH

Timpson made thorough investiga-

will be large enough to warrant such

WATER POWER IN

Columbus, Ga, Sets a Pace for
Richmond and Other South
ern Cities.
FACTS WORTH CONSIDERING
FACTS WORTH CONSIDERING
Ambitious Plans to Harness
Water Powers That Have
Been Going to Waste.

COLUMBUS, GA. August 31.-while
notable progress has been made In re-
cent yeSrs, the cold facts show that
the development of the great water
powers, in the Southern States is, in
reality. but in its beginning. The fig
ures, as furnished by no less an author
ity than the census of 1915, are really
surprising, but the one fact that stands
out with the GREATEST clearness is the
enormity OF the natural energy yet
TO be haitessed for the use of man
The amount OF water power developed
and in actual use IN Georgia In 1905,
two years ago was $4,000 horse
power, according to the United States
census authorities. This compares we'll
with the 5000 se-power developed
in -alamaba, but with the possible de-
vclopment as a background, the figures
seem almost pitiful. on one river in
Georgia alone, the Chattahooche, be-
tween Columbus and West Point. 1t is
estimated that 100000 horsepower can
be DEVELOPED.
When yle census of 1910 is taken a
vast difference in the figures will be
apparent. however. Large develop
ments on the Chattahoochee near CO.
iumbus, at Anthony Falls in Northeast
Georgia, at Muscle Shoals. Alabama,
/ and Jackson's Shoals, Alabama, are
planned, while million dollar power
plant is projected for Albany, Ga As
matter of fact, several OF there
larger projects have passed the pre-
liIuingry stage. The development of
the power at Jackson's Shoals Is al
ready actually in progress. The CO.
lumbus Power Company has three
plants in operation, one of them built
since the 1895 water-power census was
taken. and has had plans prepared for
15.oe0 horsepower plant two miles
north of this city, In addition TO hav-
ing had all of its property along the
Chattahoochee surveyed with the view.
of Developing the several powers from
time 10 time as needed. A company has
been formed 70 develop the Muscle
Shoals power. Plans ARE practically
complete for the Anthony Shoals de-
yelopment. In addition to these con-
spicuously large developments. numer-
OBS smaller powers are beinf utilized
fer Industrial purposes, and me build
Ing of many other water-power plants
IS contemplated. Water-power is the
cheapest energy on earth. and now
that 1t can be converted into cleo
.rici.y and carried over a little wire to
the manufacturing plant, situated
wherever the owner wills, al location
most desirable from the standpoint of
health, railroad facilities and other
conSenienees, it is. no wonder that a
wonderful impetus is given to the de-
yelopment of this great natural energy
as q logical result OF the remarkable
industrial expansion in the Southern
states.
