$4,000 FOR $4,000.
The Proposed sale of the City Mar
ket Lot.
To Tie Editor Of the Press:

To The Editor Of The Press:
The Aldermen have already passed a
vote to sell the city market property
which cost the city more than fifty
thousand dollars for the pitiful pittance
of five thousand dollars. In other words
under the pretence of encouraging manu-
facturers to build upon the property, and
60 to manufacturing something which
will make business and employ labor,
and thereby help Portland, it is proposed
fifty thousand dollars. That Portland
needs more manufactures | think the
business men of Portland will generally
agree.
But before the city's property is given
away, or substantially given away, may
it not be well to have the particular
enterprise Sin sight, Our citizens
should know precisely what they are to
get for their round fifty thousand dollars.
There should be no indofinitengs about
the proposition. The company should
be organized for the purpose of doing a
manufacturing business, the necessary
capital should be paid in, or secured,
and the Kind and extent of the business
should be known so that the tax payers
of Portland may know precisely what
they may at least expect to get
for their property. Common prudence
requires that so much at least should be
known, but nothing of the kind is certain
in the present proposition.
Portland has lost within few years
several important manufacturing plants
employing several hundreds Of laborers
which our neighboring rural towns of
Deering and Freeport have been smart
enough to get away from us. Until the
capitalists of Portland are interested
enough to keep what manufactures we
have, especially to hold here such stanch
and prosperous establishments as have
gone forth from our city, what assurance
have we that the money will be forth
coming for experimental enterprises.
The proposition, in its present form, now
before the city government, seems to be
lacking in definiteness, and is a complete
surrender of the peoples property to
other brains whose purposes we may not
know. Would it not be well for the city
to see substantial enterprise, with
money on hand, presented to it, before
deciding it's property for the contemptihly
diminutive consideration of five thous-
and dollars. It remains to be seen
whether the Council will concur with
the Aldermen. ENTERPRISE.

THE MILE TRACK.
Seth Griffin, the noted Track Builder, to
be Here.

The annual meeting of the Maine Mile
Track Association will be held to-
morrow The offieeas to be elected are
not known, of course, but it is reported
that the presidencyis likely to be offered
to George Burnham, Esq, of this city,
and that Messrs. NJ. I. Pooler, of Skow-
hogan and b. f. Beal, Of Bangor, are
likely to be on the directorate. 1t will
be particularly fortunate thing for the
enterprise if man of Mr.. Burnham'
recognized ability and standing can be
made president.
A feature of tomorrow's meeting will
be the presence of Mr.. Seth Griffin, the
noted builder, of whom John splain
says: II had rather have the judgment
of Griffin as to a track than the judge
ment of all the rest of mankind"

The total number of passengers car
ried during the year was 2,976, 225, an in
crease over the previous year of 1913, 439.
Owing to the severe winter of 1891 the
snow bills were unusually large. This,
with the increased cost of operating cars
under extreme difficulties and high price
of grain, greatly increased the operating
expenses
The road has been we'll managed dur
ing the year and all the company's prop
erty is in good repair. The track of the
Deering line has been practically rebuilt,
and three new long cars added to the
rolling stock. A fourth long car is near

On the corner of Vesper and Beckett
streets new horse and car stable has
been erected for the Congress street line.
The second story of the car stable is used

man, Vice President W. w. Cutter pre-
sided.
The election of officers was deferred

manifested in the proposed organization,
and the following committee was APP
pointed by the chair to solicit subscrip-
tons: H. t. Boynton, C. B. Woodman
and G. F. Murch.
Already over $500 worth Of stock has
been taken, and hardly any effort has
been made to secure subscriptions.
The enterprise is practically as
sured and location has praeti-
cally been decided upon. 1t will be an
important new industry for West

The board adjourned to meet next
Monday evening.
