TIE BELFAST BOARD OF TRADE
This organization had but a feeble eXis-
tence during the year, and has not been
very fruitful in it's results. This is to be
regretted, for an active and well conducted
board of trade can be of great benefit to a
town. Our business men do not give it at
tention, and many times the board adj
iourns without a quorum. Unless new
life is infused into it it will become one of
the things OF the past.
OUR STEAMBOAT LINES
The Boston and Bangor Steamship line
has maintained its usual popularity, and
increased its business during the year.
This is particularly true of the Belfast sta
ton. More freight has been shipped from
Belfast during the past year than during
any previous year This is due to the
natural increase in business, and to the
new line started between Belfast and Deer
Island. The freight by the new line comes
to Belfast for shipment to Boston.
The Belfast. Islesboro and Castlne route
has increased in busiups. both in freight
and passenger traffic. The line is owned
by Ar. kimbail of Ohio. who is a beiiev-
er in the future Of Penubscot Bay. Mr..
kimhall has brought one new steamer to
our waters this past year, the Viking,
which is both % pleasure craft AMI bust
ness boat Another steamer to be added
