The North Jaw Granite Quarry.

A trip over the immense granite works at
North Jay 10 most interesting. revealing the
heavy business transacted at that point. In
conversation with one of the foremen we
learn of twenty ears loading paving stone 70 r
the Pepperell Company at Biddeford and
several cars for the New York and Maine
Paving Block Company Of Portland, fro m
which point they are shipped by rail or boat
to different points.
Messrs. Bryant Brothers are shipping con-
siderable paving and underpinning stone to
Lewiston and Auburn. Quantities of this
fine granite are being sent to various points
all over the United States.
Il would be hard to find better grade of
granite in Maine than that taken from the
North Jay quarry. All along the line of the
Maine Central to Jay bridge may be seen
large piles of paving stone taken from the
granite boullers In the pastures and along
the line of rail all of excellent quality.
From ten TO twel hundred paving blocks
are loaded onto a car, these blocks being
counted as loaded onto the car. About
seventy men are now employed at these
granite works. not now as many as at som G
other times.
This is the only industry at North Jay
village that furnishes employment to any
large number of men. and without this enter
prise North Jay would present rather quiet
appearance.

Waldo.

The following are the transfers of real es.
tate in Waldo County for the week ending
Los Angeles daily herald., 1889-09-05

tenn. A beginning has been made on
the Office of the City Engineer. His force
has been reduced one.half, and 1t is q
question as'to whether it ought not to be
reduced still more radically. The Police
force is tender question with many
people, but it is quite legitimate matter
for careful consideration as to whether
we need now as large force as when
Los Angeles was the rallying point OF
thousands of enterprisiDg and often law
less characters from all quarters of the
Union. An era of retrenchment is never
an agreeable experience, and involves
sacrifices on all hands. The HERALD,
the other day, suggested that the Police
force itself might greatly abridge the
difficulty by consenting to accept less
pay. There has been a great deal of
street work that is ahead Of the times,
and profles of streets have engaged the
attention of the City Engineer that will
not be needed for years to come. When
all the retrenchment possible has been
made it is manifest that we shall still have
to encounter q considerable deficit. Our
expenditures have been so liberal thus
far in the fiscal year that the attempt to
cut our municipal coat according to our
cloth is an almost hopeless one. But'we
can begin to move in the right direction,
which is of itself considerable thing.
Los Angeles daily herald., 1889-09-05

IT is worthy of remark that during the
late visit of the Committee of the United
States Senate on Arid Lands to Los An
geles they all thought that the harbor OF
San Pedro ought to be pushed forward.
If such work had been inaugurated in
the East there would have been no
difficulty in getting millions for its COM
pletion. In the same distance which
separates the mouth of the Columb bia
river from San Diego on the Pacific
Coast there are scores of natural harbors
on the Atlantic Coast, and yet here we have
only one, that of San Francisco. Both
Senators Reagan and Stewart expressed
their sense of the importance of the work
