[From the Saco Independcntl
The Portland PRESS, now in its teens, de-
serves the success it appears to enjoy, judging
from the freshness of its type, the quality OF its
paper, the quantity of its advertising and other
indications of prosperity. 1t has the same tel
egraphic news as is furnished to the associated
press throughout the country, beside local de-
spatches from private correspondents in vari-
Gus parts of the state and county, and can lay
them before itsreaders in this vicinity fUe hours
earlier than the Boston daiies; SO that man
can read his PRESS aG or before breakfast and
then 90 about his ordinary avecations, con-
scious that he is fully informed OF the chief
topics of discussion in social, scientific, polit-
cal literary or religious circles. Its wel-wrlt-
ten editorials are independent in thought and
style; its collection of news items throughout
tbs state is remarkably full and accurate, and
and its rrespondence-notably that at "Yar-
mouth" (Hon. Isaac III. Bailey, who writes
from New York aud Washington, on political
and other topics full and entertaining As
proof of its independence, we hear that some
rabid partisans threaten to start new Repub.
lican paper in Portland, that shall be more sub
seryient to dictation; but an "organ" that
grinds out that tune will soon "play out" Our
citizens, especially those having business rela-
lions in Portland ard this state, can better af-
ford to do without the Boston papers than with
out the PRESS, unless they can take both.

From the Gardiner Home Journal
The Portland Daily PRESS is one of the ablest
as well as one of the farest daily papers in the
state. 1t is not so far the organ of any ring or
clique but that it dares to speak its own opin-
ions, and is not so partisan as to believe that all
the acts of party politicians are both law and
gospel. 1t now reaches us on the eight o'clock
train, and we advise those who wish for good
Maine daily to examine its merits.
From the Biddeford Journal.l
The Portland PRESS is one of our most racy
exchanges, and most welcome visitor. 1t is an
industrious news gatherer, spicy and at all
times readable. May its merits which are large
draw to it an abundant success.
