A few years ago, through the efforts
of the Belfast Improvement Society. the
city bought piece of land on Northport
avenue for a public park. A park COM
mission was then created, to be composed
of three members, and Messrs. George
A Quimby, DIR. G. W. Stoddard and
Jefferson F. Wilson were elected to
serve, respectively, one, two and three
years, one member of the board to be
elected annually thereafter. Mr.. Wilson
was the chairman. When Mayor Hanson
succeeded Hon. John r. Dunton he had
the membership of this commission in
creased to five that he might control it
and name the chairman. Mr. Wilson not
caring to serve under that administra-
ton, resigned, and the mayor had every
thing his own way. Then, thinking it
easier to handle one man than five he
had the park commission abolished, Gre
ated the Office of park commissioner, to
which he appointed one of his followers,
and the park has since been one of his
chief political assets. He has had an
appropriation of $500 made each year for
the park, which the park commissioner
can expend as he sees fit, or as the mayor
directs. When the move was made for
a public park the principal objection was
that it would entail heavy annual bur-
den upon the taxpayers. The friends of
the movement answered this by saying
that if the land was acquired individuals
would contribute money, labor, trees and

that the State is to lose the invaluable
service his long experience and great in
huence at the National Capital has en-
abled him to render his State, and regret

his retirement at this time. Senator Hale

him that participation in campaign
would be unwise, if not dangerous, and

to withdraw to writing, having arrived
at that decision some days before Among

the succession are Hon Edwin c. Bur-
