bay, and thus restoring to Ellsworth its
old time position as a trade CENTER
1t seems to me, gentlemen, if Mr.. Stover
is willing to risk two-thirds of the enter
prise upon the prospective profits of the
road, one hundred OF us ought to be
willing to risk one-thrd on the indirect
profits, and that we are unwise if we
allow the opportunity to pass by. 1t has
been suggested that the city do some
thing to aid this matter; this action
should oppose.
THE CITY DEBT
ought not to be increase save to carry out
some public improvement inherent to the
function of municipal government. 1t Is
now estimated at 500 ,000-a moderate sum
when compared with other municipal
debts, at which no alarm need be felt.
The trouble is that considerable part OF
it has been contracted to meet the run
ming expenses of various administrations
We must keep within our appropriations
to be used in reducing this public debt
The time is at hand when a new system
of building our
STREETS AND HIGHWAYS
must be entered upon. There is as great
a step between the modern highway and
the roads of our county, as there is be-

in one year, but IL some good is accom-
plished, I know that you will be heartily
and generously commended. II apparent
mistakes are made, and they may be,
believe that judgment will be suspended,
| for this time we propose a strong pull
and a pull all together for
ELLSWORTH.
This little city, which has been a kind
mot her to us, where center all our joys,
our present interests and hopes for the
future, situated on tide water, with I'M
surpassed water power and almost perfect
drainage, with the climate which Maine
alone can offer, in the midst of magnifi
cent scenery of shore and mountain, of
forest, lake and stream, where fish and
game abound, nature could do little more
for us.
The time was when Ellsworth was the
center of trade for the eastern part of
Hancock county, and conspicuous over
the State for its intense business enter
prise Bat our forests have been cut
down; our fortunes made i'll lumber and
shipping have been carried away or dis
sipsted; the steamboat lines along our
coast have diverted trade; rival towns
have sprung up on every hand and our
old time interests have languished. We
have been slow to adjust ourselves to new
conditions, and it has been little hard
to keep down the suspicion that the day
OF Ellsworth had gone by.
The old Ellsworth has gone, with its
ship-yards, and pine logs, and old heroes
in business and politics, who loved we'll,
and hated well.
But in place Of it there will be, and now
is. new Ellsworth with its shoe
factories, coat factories, box factories,
creamery and railroad. There never was
time when the future promised so much
and was so assured to US now.
In speaking of the steam railroad not
long since man said TO me: Heretofore
| was acquainted with all those who came
to my place OF business; now the faces
are new Another man, one of our
shrewdest, most cautious and successful
business men, says: These two stores,
before the coming OF the railroad, went

begging at 5000; to-day you cannot buy
them for 10000 ! wish ! was younger;
| see lots of good chances for new bust
ness on every hand" He said to me Il
wish you had boy | replied, Il wish
| had dozen; for would do the best |
could for them and set them down hard
in Ellsworth, and tell them you stay
here: the best is none too good for you. v
Young men who expect to live and die
here, who are more in sympathy with
progress than with the old Ellsworth,
are putting their shoulders to the wheel
and it is buzzing Two of them We're
captured with the bright idea that we
ought to have
BOARD OF TRADE.
And the thing is accomplished. No argu-
ments nor explanations were necessary to
convince our business men that we
needed it. Its ranks filled rapidly; there
is room for everybody and all are invited.
There is no politics in it, and no divided
interests; its object is to work for Ellis
worth, to substitute united, intelligent
effort for timd, hesitating action. Con-
gratulat ions and testimonies of the great
things accomplished for other towns and
cities in the State by similar organiza-
tions, poured in on every hand, and

CREAMERY.

is settled, and work will be begun within
two months. Few enterprises involving
ten times the capital-perhaps no other
could be of equal value to this part of the
county.
Our land is better adapted to raising
hay, and grazing, than to any other branch
of farming. While our soil is cold for
early crops, the clay loan of eastern Han
cock responds readily and permanently
to the culture of grass. Instead OF i'm
porting we shall export butter; instead
of exporting cows we shall import them;
instead of the discouraging dicker trade,
there will be cash in the pockets of the
farmer, and cash over the counter and
into the bank account from the farmer.
Instead of starved farms there will be
food for the land and blooming hay
fields there will be an impetus given to
that kind of living which, after all, is the
best, and an added value to that kind of
property which is the surest and safest.
The board of trade is also promoting the
interest of the
ELECTRIC RAILWAY,
connecting the mills and remoter part of
this village with deep water, which is
offered us If we will but reach out our
hands with a small sum of money and
take it. We have often specialized on the
| size and interests of Ellsworth could its
locat ion and subsequent growth have
| been confined to the head of the bay.
And now the magic of modern science
comes and offers us all the advantages
which could be extorted from both loca-
| tions.
1t is not a question whether the road
will pay or not. Will it pay the good
people of Bayside to be within five
minutes walk of the post office? viii it
pay the ships to avoid the intricate
channel of Union river; the village to
| have a daily line OF boats to Rockland,
! wit choice in making our freight con-
| tracts to the westward? If we are con-
| nected with the west side of Mt. Desert
| by steam, what will hinder US from

part of the Island and the islands in the
