Visit of a Former Pastor.

To the Editor of the Press:
There hos beef great gladness In finding
myself again in Portland. The spell the
city threw upon me years ago has lost
nothing of its potency. 1t is every whit
true that when once Portland has gotten
its grip On ones heart it cannot be shaken
off. This visit has shown me that archi.
tect and builder have been busy adding
to the material attractiveness of the oity.
Mayor Baxter's new block on. Congress
street, that of the Rines Brothers on the
same street, and new structures, residen-
tial and business, in other parts of the
city are welcome proofs of Portland s
prosperity. Other signs of the oity's sub
stantial growth are very manifest.
My special purpose in coming was to at
tend that silver wedding of my friend,
Mr.. Wright and the ST. Lawrence street
church.
it was very gracious act on the part
OF the PRESS to give such generous space
to its report OF those commemorative SER
vices.
My joy had been all but "unspeakable''
on learning that the ST Lawrence street
parish have purchased a slightly lot for
q new sanctuary Oh Congress strset, at a
cost Of 81, SEQ OF his amount So, 200 have
been paid. At recent parish meeting a
committee was appointed to perfect plans
for the raising of money. Subscriptions
amounting to So, 600 have already been
made by the people of the parish. That
sum will have increase, for the people
are full Of enthusiasm, and their offerings
to the building fund will reach the utter
most limit of their ability. Fortunately
for them the citizens of Portland are in
full sympathy with them and their pastor
IN this matter of the new church. They
see how Imperative is the necessity for it,
how utterly inadequate is tine present
building to meet the needs of the organ
ization. Not only the Congregationalists
OF Portland but people of all denomina-
tions, seeing how resolutely determined
the ST. Lawrence street church and parish
are to have new house of worship, and
how freely they are giving Of their own
means, will give generous response ia
their appeal for financial assistance. Why
may not the building fund grow so rapid.
ly and in such proportions that work can
DO begun when once the spring days shall
have come?
On the evening of the ''Silver wedding
I predicted that January 1, 1897, would
witness the dedication of the new sanotu-
Hry. 1t is in the power of the citizens OF
Portland who so highly asteem Mr.. Wright
and have SO lively an interest in his
church to transmute that prediction into
On accomplished fact. I am quite conf
Dent that by the promptness and liberal,
ity OF their subscriptions to the building
fund they will prove that that prediction
did not coma from the lips of a false
prophet.

Like Master Like Man.

The St. Cloud Times Special cores
pendent from Melrose has this to say
about the largest political demonstra
ton ever held in Melrose:
1t was rumored abou. the village here
today that there had been meeting Of
the Republicans here last evening, and
that Page Morris addressed it. Little
credence was given to the rumor at first,
as 1t was not generally known among
the people here. They have grown
somewhat skeptical in matters of this
kind of late. as overtures of this kind
have generally ended in disaster. Later
investigation developed the fact that
there really was a meeting here, and
that the same was produced by the local
Republican club. It was not 2 home
product, however. but was manufact.
ured in st. Cloud and Sank Centre. and
put together by sections when It got
here. By using the little raw material
they had here, Is fill the crevices, they
managed to make a meeting for Page.
The correspondent is not SO much to
blame, for he realized that it would b
impossible for him to tell the truth and
-''hold his job" But the Times will have
plenty opportunity after election to ex-
plain how that it didn't really mean
anything it said dnring this campaign
any more than it did in 1894. OF such
is the Times.

A correspondent writing to the daily
press from Duluth, under date OF last
Saturday saws:
Reports from the district Indicate
small losses from the republican ranks
and big democratic gains. A poll was
taken of a township in the northern
part of the district and another in the
southern, There were 400 votes in the
former and there was shown a net
republican gain of 25 per cent, while in
the latter, with 800 votes, there was
shown a net republican gain of % per
cent. A careful estimate in Duluth indi-
Gates that Morris will receive between
600 and 7OU democratic votes. care
fnI poll shows that Towne will not carry
his ward or precinct. He will lose it
about two to one, while Morris will
carry the ward he lives in by about the
same ratio. The republicans feel abso-
luteIy sure that Morris will carry the
city, and no one whose estimate 10 COZ
siderd worthy. of considerations disputes
that Morris will carry the ranges by a
least 1,5cO m1joritv. In Duluth much
faith is felt in the counties outside of st.
Louis as well as in it, for there IS the
assurance that the republicans every
where are working as they never w orked
before and have the support OF the intel.
iigence of the democratic party in hight
which has thrown party lines to the
wind. The utmost condolences Is felt here
in the electiou of Page Morris.

Many and various are the discussions of
the "new woman" but most of the women
we've seen have no aspirations toward the
emancipation Of their sex from any yoke
except the burdensome yoke Of i'll health.
They all seem to think-and think rightly
that their proper field is their home, and to
work faithfully in this field she must be
strong and hearty. Care is peculiarly q
woman's heritage. But it was not the "new
woman" or any other kind of woman that
we started out to talk about. It is q imam
In the case " this time, and man, too, that
thinks he is the newest kind Of "new
man."
From what he tells us, he has good cause
to think so. There is no comparison between
his present state of feeling and that of two
years ago. But let the following speak for
itself. We published a few weeks ago a
statement of the miraculous cure of Mr.. J..
N. Foster, of Carter's Creek, now one of the
Herald's men, from locomotor ataxia IA dis
ease said to be incurable), by the use of DR..
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People.
The account was read by numbers of peo-
pie who were eyewitness of his bodily suffer-
ing and who know what Mr.. Foster stated to
be true beyond peradventure of a doubt !;
it was read by others, also, who believe it
just the same as if they too, had seen all, be-
cause Mr.. Foster is well known over the
country 20 be man of unimpeachable vera
city.
So strong is his belief in the Dr. Will
iams' Pills, he has Influenced number of
other people to use them, and all have be-
came as new persons.
One of the number is young man of
Southport, Maury County, Tennessee, Mr..
old, and being of rather a delicate constitu-
ton, has been afflicted the greater part of
his life.
Young Murphy says, he verify believes
that very few people of any age or cline
have been called upon to endure the bodily
suffering which he has undergone
In an interview with the Herald, he told
us the following, which we give in his.own
words:

severe spell of la grippe, which affected me
very much. However, with the summer
