NEW DAM PROJECTED
ACROSS UNION RIVER

Ellsworth, Me, Jan. 6.-Defnita
plans are being made for the develon.
ment in the near future of the magni.
ficent power privileges. of the Union riv
er at Ellsworth. On or two unsuccess.
full attempts have been made to uso
this power in the past and it has al.
ways been recognized as one of the
best privileges in this part of the State.
1t is now practically certain that a
syndicate of business men represented
by John II. Graham of Bangor will
soon begin work on a new dam at Els
worth, probably next spring, and thar
nearly $250,000 will be expended. The
plans which have thus far been made.
contemplate a power plant with a ca
paclty at the beginning of $3.50 horse
power. but this can be increased from
time TO time up to a capacity OF 10000
horsepower. provided as much as that
should ever be needed
II Is also regarded as reasonably GER
tain that the building of a big power
plant at Ellsworth would speedily be
followed by construction of the long
talked-of electric railroad between
Castine and Ellsworth, running
through the towns of Surry, BluehilI
and Penobscot. Surry, BluehiT, Pc
nobscot and Castine. particularly the
latter, are already favorably known
as summer resorts and the summer
population at all those places is twice
as great as the year-round population.
All the towns are handicapped by
transportation facilities and have 10
~ mn nj
any place of size or with any railroad
junction.
The new plant will be erected upon the
site of the old Boston Reduction Cos.
plant and will probably he ready for use
by next fall. The electric lighting sys-
TEN of the city of Ellsworth will be re-
constructed and 4 power transmission line
VIII be run to Bar Harbor. while other
lines will extend to various points on Mt.
Desert island 50 that those places may
secure their electric lights and power
from the plant here. The dam will be 60
feet high and will create a lake of con-
siderable size. This will necessitate the
flooding of land which is now being used
and for which damages will have to be
paid. At least one bridge will have to be
abandoned and another one raised Sew
eral sections of highway will be inundat-
ed. making it necessary to build new
roads. The building of the dam will
create storage capacity sufficient to run
the plant at all seasons of the year. 81
that the possibility of beirS obliged to
resort to steam power at times will be
obviated
Plans for the construction of the plant
and electric road are so far advanced
that many sites are being purchased IN
the near vicinity of Ellsworth and Cas-
tine for summer residences, and it is ex-
pected that this section of Hancock coun-
ty will begin to feel the first effects OF
boom in the summer resort business by
next season.
