The Bangor Comm ercidi has been in
formed on reliable authority that work
would be commenced on the projected
railway between Bangor and Buckspoit

gentleman will see that 4 generous and

shore front is wanted for wharfage pur-
poses. and if it can be bought. long line
of wharfs will soon be built tor the use Of
lumber dealers and river steamers.
