- The Portland Press was enlarged the list OF
January to about the size of the Boston Daily Post
and Advertiser-which aye largest New England
dailies- and itnow makes very handsome appear
This evidence OF prosperity on the part of SO
good and reliable paper as the Press is gratifying.
1t shows, too that Por and has lost nothing OF vsor
enterprise or resource, by the great fire. but that its
is still Onward-that its business is in fact in
creasing, notwithstanding the apparent calamity
last year-nd that its promise of commercial great
ness is certain to be fulfilled. The Press is among
the best of the New England papers, and its present
appearance is a credit to the State.
The Portland daily press., 1867-02-09
A Paper Enlarged TO the size ofthe largest
New England Dailies.

The enlargement of our daily edition is equivalent
to the addition of between three and four columns to
its SIZE This additional space will be devoted TO de-
tails of important events, which have heretofore
been obliged give in brief, and to selections from
current literature, grave OF gay, such as we have
! lately been obliged to omit altogether.
What the character of the paper thus enlarged will
| be, it's past history will show. The PRESS
tabshed primarily 10 represent the Republican par
| ty of Maine. 1t was impossible for the controlling
party of the State to remain voceless in this city.
The PRESS will continue to defend the principles of
the Liberal party Of America. The war has closed
one great cycle in national history-the cycle
during which aristocracy at the South and democra-
cy at the North grew up side by side, period of
jealousy and conflict resulting in appeal to arms
and the victorious supremacy Of the democratic prin
ciple. We have entered state of transition, which
seems likely to prove longer than most of antci
| pated. The Press will insist upon settlement
which will secure the fruits of victory Nothing
settled till is settled right. We must have de-
mocracy at the South well as at the North-equal
| rights for all secured by equal laws, freedom of
Speech freedom of the press, impartial suffrage. OF
the profound convictions of the Republican party OF
| Maine, the PRESS will remain a faithful exponent.
The present year will probably witness the extern
sion of the telegraph round the world. The compile
tisn OF that great enterprise will compel change,
which has already begun, in the management OF
newspapers. The leading features of the worlds
history will be registered from day to day by the tel
egraph The expense of special dispatches from all
parts of the world will prove too great for single
| newspapers, and correspondence will regain some
thing its old Importance. Newspaper associations
OF news agents will assume the task of furnishing
the daily dispatches while correspondents will fur
nsh details, explanations and illustrations by mail
The Atlantic telegraph has already destroyed the
system by which foreign news has for years been
furnished by steamer, and already the Tribune has
its special correspondents established in almost
every capital in Europe We cannot rival the feats
New York journalism but must be governed by the
same Considerations. stAst- r g.
