Advertising brings lasting suc>
cess, The man who advertises from
week to week and year to year, if he
really has something worth buying,
will sell his goods and gather in the
dollars, while his neighbor in busi~
ness who doesn't believe in adver-
tising'' waits for the customers that
never come. It's keeping continu-
ally at it that pays.

The financial question has become
to be regarded as huge chestnut,
and the man who springs it on a
crowd these warns days soon finds
that he is regarded as guy from way
back. People have grown tired of
the financial question; they are
sick OF it, and they ought to be. If
we had the whole summer to go
through, and knew what we do now,
the Herald would be in favor OF an
ordinance making it punishable tor
more than one person to discuss the
financial question at the same place.

THE W. & q.
1t Has an Idea of Getting the Salacfa to
Run to Wiscasset.

There is talk in Wiscasset of gettl ng
the steamer Salacia to stop at that port
IN order to bring freight to Portland for
the Wlscasset and Quebec railroad. Thls
road, which is now extended to Branch
Mills in China, and will, this Sc ason
reach Albion, distance Of about forty
miles from Wiscasset, has been unable
to make a satisfactory traffic arrange
ment with the Maine Central for the car
rying of freight to Portland. 1t is
thought that the Salacia could enable the
W. q @ to get it's freight into Portland
cheaper than can be done by railroad.
1t is about five hours sail from Port
land to Wiscasset.
Z Mr.. Charles r. Lewis, clerk of the
Salacia, said last evening that the steam
er could hardly reach Wiscasset while
running on her present route. The ".
q q had talked Of boat to connect with
her. This might be done next season,
but probably not this summer.

ELECTRICS FOR GORHAM.
Portland Railroad Co.'s Cars Will Run
There by September.
Latest in the DEVELOPMENT of Portland's
Trolley Lines-A Well Built Line to
Reach Ten Miles from Portland.

Latest in the Development of Portlands
Trolley Lines-A Well Built Line to
Reach Ten Miles from Portland.
1t is almost certain that by September
the electric cars will be running from
Portland into Goram village This Will
be brought about by extending the track
of the Portland Railroad company from
Westbrook to Gorham. The distance is
four miles, and the route will be over
the old Gorham road, passing by Walnut
Crest, the summer home of j. Henry
Rines
The total length of the line from Port
land to Gorham will be ten miles. 1t will
be splendid ride, and the improvement
will be hailed with delight by the people
of both Portland and Gorham. Through
cars will run from the head Of Preble
street to Gorham village. The rate of fare
has not been determined; but it will
probably. be moderate.
General Manager Newman said yester,
day that the Gorham extension would be
built with the same excellent material
and thorough workmanship that have
made the Westbrook line SO excellent foi
travel.
The construc tion will be done under
the direction of the Portland Railroad
company, and the extension will be man
aged by them. But separate company
will pay for and own the new line.
However, the Portland Railroad compa
ny's leading men will be prominent in
the new company.
The new company is taking steps to OF
ganize under the general law, and will
probably get it's charter and location in
time to have tho road constructed by

Electric Car Notes.

The great engine for the electric plant
of the Portland street railway company
has arrived in this city from Milwaukee,
| where it was built by the E. P. Allis
| Company. 1t came on the Boston &
Maine, and it's different parts occupy
three cars 1t is still in the railway yard
and will not be set up in the power
house at present.
There is no truth in the rumor that
when the company runs double track
to Deering track will be laid straight
up Green street to Congress, in order to
avoid double track on Preble S, ,et.
The fact that the wires from the power
plant will be run up Green street to Con-
gress probably gave rise to this rumor.
| When the double track is laid to Deer
| ing the result in the near future will be
the extension of the Ocean street line
| from East Deering over Tukey's bridge
and Munjoy Hill to Congress street.
| Preble street around through Deering,
up over Munjoy and down Congress to
the head of Prsble street again. There
| the cars will turn back and make the Cir
cult of Back Cove the other way, that is,
up Congress, over Munjoy Hill, through
East Deering and around through Wood
fords and up to the head of Preble street
again.
This splendid round trip that will
afford most delightful ride amidst va
| ried views NAV be enioyed probably for
only cents.

OBITUARY..
David MI. Yeomans,

News was received in this city yester-
man at his home in Kinsman, Ohio. Mr..
Yeoman was about ffty-fye years of
age His mother, Mrs. Yeomans, was a
sister of the late Captain J. B. Cole OF
this city. When quite young Mr.. Yeo-
man came to Portland, and for number
of years was clerk in the Boston steam
ers. He afterwards became interested in
the Smith Vacuum brake, which he took
to London and was very successful with
it, He was for number of years the
president of the Thames Navigation COM
pany in London. When he retired from
that position he returned to the States,
and, rested for time. He then went to
Europe again with Edison S talking doll,
which had quite run at one time. But
correct history of the various enter
prises in which he had been interested
would fill book The last one with
which he was identified was the Maine
Automatic Light. In these ventures Mr..
Yeoman made a great deal of money,
but he was free hearted man, very Law
ish with his means. At one time he con-
ceiyed the idea of great hotel on the
western promenade, and an opera house,
where the United State hotel stands, and
had the land bonded for the hotel.
Mr.. Yeoman married Miss Mary Helen
Keazer, daughter of the lato Captain
Keazer of this city, who survives him,
and one son. For almost two years he
had been "a great sufferer with rheuma-
tism at his beautiful hon in Kinsman.

N. E. FAIR NOTES.
Some Items of Progress-what Secretary
Dennison Says.

One of the special features of the New
England Fair is to be the electric display
1t is intended that this shall be the fin.
est ever made in Maine. In fact, there
has never been much of display of such
apparatus in this state 1t is un der
stood that the Belknap Motor company
and New England Telephone company
will be large exhibitions in this depart
ment.
An effort is being made by Secretary
Dennison to give the best places in the
exhibition to the novelties. Regular ar
ticles of merchandise will of course be
received but the show will be made
more attractive by giving novelties the
front seats.
In arranging City hall for the exhibits
it is expected that one row of seats will
be left for spectators in the side galleries,
and seven or eight ttiers in the end gal
lery. The remaining gallery space will
be covered with platform for the exhib-
it's.
The band will be stationed in the rear
gallery opposite the stage
The Belknap Motor company have tax
en- the space in front of the stage.
Gifford's exhibit of the wild animals
of Maine will occupy the stage. These
stuffed animals have attracted much at
tention at the Worlds Fair and in New
York.
L. f. Jordan & Co., also have space
near the stage for the National Cash Reg
lister.
Treasurer Dennison says that everything
promises very successful parade.
