Water Gas for Waimate.

——o A southern contemporary recently referring lo Mr “Water-gas” Watt, observes that Mr Watt was nothing if lie was not energetic and persistent. Tnis i i very evident from his inspection of the numerous sites that are being offered fci the erection of the Wain: ate works, and hj has lost no time in bringing before the public Ilia advantages of his water gas, not only as a lighting, heating, and cooking agency, bat also as a motive power, os in gas engines, for go convincing were his arguments and uadisputahla the evidence lie adduced from the gas bills paid and the personal experiences of the many users of his gas engines that he has already succeeded in booicing an order for a tour horse power gas engine for one of our enterprising local engineering firms. Wo may mention that Mr Twonrey is already having his large new hotel fitted throughout forges, so that it is quite evident that the stamp of public approval has already been given to the venture, and there is not the shadow of a doubt but that the. enterprise will receive the support which it richly deserves, as marking another and an important step toward the advancement and prosperity of Wairaate.
