Herald.
As early in June rs the necessary arrangements
can be completed the undersigned will commence,
in the city of Portland, the publication of new,
energetic and hve, Daily Morning Paper, contain
ing the latest and fullest news by mail and tele-
graph, entitled the
PORTLAND DAILY PRESS;
Also, large, well filed, carefully edited, and
neatly printed, weekly paper, intended specially
for general circulation throughout the State, to DO
called the
MINE STATE PRESS,
Both of which will labor to inculcatc in no
dictatoral spirit, sound political principles, and
to promote the material interests of the State and
Of the City of Portland, as ITS interests thrive
with, and inseparable FROM those Of the State.
Politically, the Press will give an earnest, cor
dial, and generous support to the administration
of ABRAHAM LINCOLN, who, in little more than
one year, has ndellibly impressed himself upon
the nations heart an ncorruptible patriot, an
nfexible Chief Magistrate, and an honest man
the ability of whose administration is most signal
y exhibited, not only in the matchless operations
of our army md navy, but in the unpaf allrlcd
fact that, in the midst of this gigantic rebellion,
our Government securities are selling mt a prcmi

economy, and inasmuch as the Republican party
which, in the brie chapter Of its history already
written, has successfully refutcd the allegation Of
its enemies that its designs and tendency were
sectional, and trump hanty indicated Its claim
to just and liberal Nationality, has remained
stcadiast in its devotion to the Union while other
organizations have so generally become infected
with disoyal spirit, and inasmuch as it is the
| only party which at present seems competent to
conserve the great principles underlying all free
Governments, the Pass will cordially SUSTAIN the
organization Of that party not with design to
foster mere partizan spirit, but in the full con-
sciousness that it embodies the true principles up
on which our government rests, and affords the
only available means Of accomplishing such re-
suits a lofty patriotism impcratively demands.
II will neither seek endorse any compromises
with men in rebellion against the laws Of the land,
but will ncu cate loyalty to the great central idea
of all true dcmocraey-that the majority must
govern.
Upon the exciting question of Domestic Slavery,
it may be proper to say, that while the Press will
sanction no Interference with the constitutional or
legal rights of loyal men, it will neither apologize
for evil which constitutes the f1uest blot upon
our national character, or attempt to resist the
tide of events which seems destined to sweep from
existence 40 institution which is the greatest an
omay in free government. The emancipation
of slavery in the federal Capital the CO operation
of the federal with the loyal State governments,
to secure gradual emancipation, as proposed by
President Lincoln, and all other constitutional
| measures looking to peaceful removal of our
greatest moral, political and social evil, will
find in the Pass a generous and hearty support.
While thus distinctly announcing the general
course proposed for the Pass, and intending that
alike in war and in peace-n countrys peril
aud in its triumph, II shall speak with unccr-
tain voice, we do not lose sight of the fact that
true men have honestly differed, and that, coming
by different routes they fad themselves trav-
cling parallel roads; aud we shall labor hopefully
| TO encourage unity of purpose and harmony OF
action among all loyal men.
Aside from its political department, the Pass
will be earnestly devoted to the advancement OF
the best interests Of the city and State. Its Lo-
cal Department will in no case be neglected. -
Particular attention will be given to the CONNER.
