Brookhaven's Encouraging Growth.


Mayor Daughtry has kindly fur
nished us some data ON the compare
tive increase of taxable property in
Brookhaven, which will be of interest
to our readers. In 1880 the total taxa
BILE property of the city was s326, 800.
In 1890 it was s5S9,69S, an increase in
the ten years of s263,33s. In 1899, ac-
cording to the revised assessment rolls,
the total valuation is 1000, ,239, an in
crease in the last years of s410,341.
During the first six of these nine years
there was comparatively little growth,
so that the principal increase has been
during the last three. The increase
since last year is S105,140. The prop
erty valuation for 1899 is divided as
follows:

owing to the fact that the schedule
asked for would be paid.
Under the direction Of engineers and
some licensed firemen, the boilers were
looked after, this morning, by yard Ia
borers, coal wheeicrs and other such
employees of the mill. The mills claim
that they obey the law in having boss
firemen who are licensed. Many OF
these, however, are men who worked
all last night. and the strikers say that
they must soon give up work, for they
cannot stand night and day duty.
The firemen will probably take action
that will result in having a test case
made Of the license law, in an endeavor
TO ascertain whether the opinion Of the
attorney general given. Saturday, will
be upheld. 1t is evident that this is
very important feature Of the strike.

nation from Veritable wilderness.

In the history Of Maine there have
been two boums two of which Halted
ont. while the others seem to have
solid foundation and to thrive Accord
ipr to the times. The timber land
boom. upon the strength of which most
of the uld-fashioned brick buildings in
Bangor were erected, while values OF
all kinds scared sky-high, was soon
over. The mining boom. which struck
Maine about 1878. also had brief ex-
istence. The summer resort boom.
while il has subsided in some locah-
ties. is still on. and in the nature OF
things. must continue as long as peo-
pie are willing to pay for out-of-door
recreation. The latest boom is that OF
uuip and its growth in recent years
mas been prodigiOus.
Pulp is capable Of waking a sleepy
village to life in single summer. and
III tho instances it has raised a town

The first Of these towns was Rumford
FANS. which grew like magic on the
banks IF the upper Ardroscoggin; the
second Is MIlinocket. which is just
now getting on its feet.

This mill is to be 900 feet long and
400 feet wide. and it will have dams
and canals to supply from the West
Branch of the Penobscot $500 horse
power and boilers of 10000 horse power
to supply steam for cooking the spruce
wood into pulp. There will be ma
chincry capable of producing from the
pulp 80 tons of news paper daily.
while the capacity can be Increased TO
10 tons a day. In the construction OF
The mill 1000, 600 bricks will be used.
besides immense quantities Of native
granite. structural steel and hard pine
lumber. The mill will annually eat up
from 10000. 900 to 60,000000 feet OF
spruce logs ana the company owning 1t
has already bought 100000 acres Of
timber land and is looking for more.
North and east of the mill is a spruce
growth of 100000 acres, from which
an average of 5000 feet an acre can be
cut of spruce. giving a total of 1900
600 600 feet. or enough to last the mill
