Gentlemen of the City Council: I trust that we appreciate the great honor that has been bestowed upon us by being chosen to administer the munici­ pal affairs of our city for the coming year, and also that we fully realize the great responsibilities and the duties that, by our oaths of office, we have this day assumed. Λ city the size of ours, has many and varied interests to be cared for, requiring a great deal of time and labor upon the part of the members of the city council. Let us therefore give freely both of our time and labor to the end that the city’s interest and the city’s welfare may be prospered and promoted, thereby meriting the honor and the confidence bestowed upon us by our fellow-citizens. You all are well aware, per­ haps, what your duties are, therefore for me to attempt to outline them to you or to show you of what they consist is unnecessary. But this I ask of you,— that each one will give to the citv of Lewiston this vear, whatever his duties may be, the verv best thought and the verv best effort of which he is 1/ G ts capable, and if this we do, we shall at the close of the year have the consciousness of right endeavor, although we may fail to accomplish all that we desire. I present for your consideration the following statement of the financial condition of our city at the close of the municipal year February 28, 1905.

I refer to the matter of holdingo hack bills in the latter months of an administration to be paid by the succeeding administra­ tion, for the purpose of making a good financial showing, on paper. In regard to this custom, I have this to say,— I believe in making the appropriations large enough to meetthe expenses of the city economically administered, and then the prompt payment of all bills when presented and properly approved. There will, of necessity, be a few bills go over from one administration to another, but I wish to see as far as possi­ ble, all bills contracted during the coming year, paid by this administration. Pay as yon go is as good a rule for the city as for the individual. At this time I know of no reason for any extraordinary expenditure during the coming year and therefore think our tax rate of twenty mills can be maintained, if not reduced. m a y o r ’s a d d r e s s . 5 S c h o o l s . The maintenance of the high standing of our public schools shall be the watchword of this administration. Let us allow nothing to interfere with the success and high standing which our public school system enjoys at the pres­ ent time. I wish to call your attention to a matter that has already been brought up in the school board, namely, that of holding our caucuses and elections in our public school buildings. I think this is wholly wrong, and earnestly hope that in the future polling places will be provided in which to hold our caucuses and elections other than our school buildings. The reasons for this are so obvious, that it is not necessary to mention them here. ation for schoolhouse repairs in the hands of the school board has, I think, been demonstrated to the satisfaction of all, and to return to the old method would be a step that this administration would not care to take. P o o r T) e pa r t m en t . This department is one of the most important of the departments of the city, requiring as it does the outlay of a large amount of money. While I recommend a liberal deal­ ing with our city poor, and would have no one deserving or entitled to aid turned away and made to suffer, yet in jus­ tice to the tax-payers of the city, we should not allow our­ selves to be imposed upon by applicants for aid who are well able to support themselves, and who should be an aid and a help to the city instead of being a burden and expense to the people among whom they live. I would also recommend that the Board of Overseers of the Poor keep in closer touch with the clerk of this depart­ ment than has been the custom in the past, meeting with him as often as possible to discuss and talk over the business of the department and to assume some of the responsibility for the businesslike administration of the affairs of this 6 CITY OT LEWISTON. '·* , · · * / important department. The rule in practice at the present time of refusing to allow children to come to this depart­ ment for city orders unless absolutely necessary is a step in the right direction, and will, I hope, be strictly adhered to the comingO vear.

  • The Story Behind the Garcelon Mansion by David C
    Published quarterly by the Lovell Historical Society Volume 17, Number 4 Fall 2010 The Garcelon Family in front of their home on Kezar Lake. Photo donated by David C. Gareelon The Story Behind the Garcelon Mansion By David C. Garcelon At the north end of Kezar Lake sits a magnificent neoclassical style home known as the "Garcelon Mansion". Built for Charles Augustus Garcelon and his family in 1908 and 1909, the house commands magnificent views ofthe White Mountains and is unequalled in the quality of its design. Constructed by Italian craftsmen, the house features maple floors, hand-carved paneling and an elaborate staircase framed by columns. This is the story ofhow this home came to be built. Charles Garcelon was born in Lewiston on November 14, 1842. He was the son of Dr. Alonzo and Ann Augusta (Waldron) Garce10n and the great-great-grandson ofJames and Deliverance (Annis) Garcelon, who were among the first settlers in 1776 of Lewiston Falls, an Indian garrison on the Androscoggin River. The family's imprint on the area exists to this day. The Garcelons were farmers. They were also very much involved in the development ofLewiston and its sUlTounding area. From the time Charles was born in 1842, until he left for the Civil War in 1862, he was at the center of a family which was not only known for having the finest horses, growing the largest cabbages and having the best orchards, but who also started the Lewiston Falls Journal. The family was instrumental in (continued on pagc 3) .'
