field quite as as we'll as they do. To all of our
readers who want heightened, conservative

One Of the Best Newspapers In New
England.
Ellsworth Americana
The Portland PRESS is one of the best
newspapers in New England. It is inde-
pendent in the expression of its views,
prompt in giving the news of the day and is
a Republican organ, which though fair in
the expression OF political matters, makes no
uncertain sound. One is never at loss to
tell which side it is on. To the citizens of
the coast towns its shipping list alone, which
is very full, is worth great deal more than
the price of subscription.
