WORK HAS BEGUN ON
new ice PLANT here
Will Be Spacious and Well
Equipped

Work has just been started upon the
large and modern plant of the Atlantic
Ice and Coal Corporation, which is TO
be erected at the foot of Spring
street, and which means an investment
of more than $4,000. This is outside
capital, which seeks investment in
Americas, after the advantage Of
other South Georgia cities were con-
sidered.
The plans, exhibited in the office Of
Manager w. r. Maynard, indicate the
completeness of the refrigerating and
the ice manufacturing plants in their
entirety. The most modern appliances
will be put in throughout, and the
completed plant will be up-to-date in
every particular.
The ice manufacturing plant will
have a daily capacity of seventy-five
tons. The cold storage departments
will be twelve in number and will be
fitted up particularly for the separate
storage of meats, vegetables and pro
duce generally.
The main building will be of brick
and steel, seventy feet by 24O, and will
be reached by sidetracks from the
Central railway. The engine rooms,
where three huge boilers will be To-
Gated, are also of steel and brick. In
every particular the large plant will
be modern in its construction and
equipment throughout.
Arrangements will also be made for
the re-icing of fruit trains in transit,
and Americas will, in time, be desig-
mated a regular station in South Geor-
gia for re-icing shipments of fruits to
the North and East.

4 NEW BUSINESS
RULE ESTABLISHED BY
BUSINESS MEN


The Board of Education of Americas
have established a new business rui1
ard instead of letting out contracts as
heretofore to the lowest bidder, have
reversed the order of things, letting
out contracts to the highest bidder
At the last meeting of the Board of
Education there were two bids for fur
nishing light and power to the Public
Schools of Americas. The Americas
Gas & Electric Co. offered to furnish
nish it for four cents per K w hour,
the America Power Co. offered to fur
nish, it for four cents epr K. w. hour,
the same service. The contract was
given to the Americas Power Company,
the new electric company, whose bid
was 80 1-3 per cent higher than the
bid of the Americas Gas & Electric
Co.
1t is alright for business men if they
wish in their own private affairs, 70
favor certain corporation and pay a
higher price for the same service, but
is it right to vote the city's money in
this way?
1t is only fair to state that all of
the Board of Education did not favor
this new rule, only majority.
We wonder how much longer Ameri-
Gus is to be controlled by a prejudiced
faction and we tax payers must suffer
