1t is intensely gratifying to read the
announcement OF the plans of the Bar
Harbor & Union River Power Co. in
relation to the development of the
water power of Union river. What
General Manager Graham has to say
may be found elsewhere in this issue,
ard SO far as anything in the future is
certain, the building of the long
talked OF sixty-foot dam near the site
of the lower dam will be begun in the
spring. 1t is not easy to comprehend
Cow much this will mean for Ellis
worth. No better service can be rem
dered TO the town than for every body
TO talk Ellsworth whenever and
wherever opportunity offers. Her
natural advantages as a locality for
industrial enterprises, while not limit
less, are SO many and SO varied that
no talk likely to be made can be too
strong. A mushroom growth is neither
likely nor desirable, but from the first
stroke of the pick on this proposed
dam, steady and healthy industrial
growth is practically assured.

TT ere is great deal OF speculation
over the legislation that Congress will
be able to get through in the short
session. 1t is generally agreed that
the ship subsidy bill viii be passed
There is hope also in great many
qra-te-e that the Speaker will consent
to the passage of river and harbor
appropriation bill. The plan of the
River and Harbor congress which met
in Washington last fall is for wide
spread and systematic scheme of
river and harbor improvement, which
would Involve an outlay of about
$4,000, 600 annually, for several years
to come. This is a large amount, but
1t is held that with reasonably GER
tain fixed appropriation work can be
carried on more economically and
effectively than when it is left to
guess work whether or not any money
will be available to complete projects
already under way. There are a
number of other measures of consid-
cradle Importance which will probably
furnish basis for great deal of talk.
These include reform currency legis-
lation, the Inheritance tax bill and the
Philippine tariff, but they are not
likely to stand much show during the
brief session.
