Portland and the Coast Trade.

The Machias Union says: prior to
1866 the coast towns of Washington
county had very limited or no trade with
Portland. From 1862 for more than a
century Boston was their market in
which to sell and more especially to buy.
"When the steam boat line was placed
on the route connecting Portland and
Machias. with sevt r II intermediate land
ings, in a few years prosperous and
satisfactory trade sprung up, so that I'M
til the terminus of the line was changed
from Portland to Rockland, the trade
was large. The last few years this trade
has been diverted to Boston. Now that
the line is to have it's terminus at Port
land again, it is expected that trade will
resume it's former channel or during the
connection by steamer with Portland.
Nine tenths of our coast town people will
bs extremely gratified at the change In
fact we do not know of town or per-
son who will not say amen.
'The Portland merchants will, no
doubt, restir themselves to recover VAN
tage ground. Our people should meet
them Portland is part of the State OF
Maine Boston is part Of Massachusetts,
LET us help our own, thus help our
selves.

Address to the Associations.

/ The address before the Young Men
and Womens Christian association was
made last evening at 8 o'clock in the
university auditorium by Major E. w.
Halford. The program was rendered as
follows:

Invocation Dr. Belser.
Anthem, o! Let Them Lead Me, Gounod

Major E. W. Halford.
Bass Solo Pilgrims Stevens-Adams
Mr. F. c. Walker.
Hymn, No. ia, Students Hymnal.
Benediction.
Major Halford's address consisted of
a statement Of the attitude which the
Young men and women of the colleges of
the United States bear to the Christian
associations. He introduced some ex-
tensive statistics in connection with the
growth of the organizations and also Of
the plans of Motifs federation of the
students of the colleges of the world.
He said that the real distinctive spirit
of the American nation is Christianity
and that spirit must be adhered to if the
perpetuity of our institutions is to be
preserved. The American people must
not be averse or ashamed to emphasize
that fact at all times. Righteousness
exalteth nation"
He reviewed the early history, and
showed that education and Christianity
has been simultaneous in the birth and
development of this nation, and quoted
Washington, Webster and Lincoln in
illustration. The conclusion con aimed
the idea that only as our nation is based
upon righteousness have we any hope
for its future.

gree. The address was optimistic and
the unfolding of the argument showed
that such a world would be by far the
happiest. President Baker works out
his addresses with the greatest care and
the topic selected is usually living,
breathing one, which no one can listen
to without being benefited.
The bearing of "interest" on ones life
and character is a practical consider
alton and the speaker drew upon living
examples to illustrate the theme. The
selection of pursuit upon which to la
Dor, to place ones heart upon it and
then to fasten ones interest, that will
bring happiness-the true happiness to-
ward which all should struggle.
The address was philosophical and
profound, and yet the living truths were
simply expressed and the immense audi
ence present were unanimous in their
hearty expressions of satisfaction and
approval.
The weather was excellent and the
studer i, and townspeople were present
in large numbers. The auditorium was
filled and the adjoining class rooms and
halls had to be utilized to accommodate
the crowds. The most elaborate prepar-
aticns have been made to render the
commencement exercises this year a
perfect success and the enthusiastic
manner in which the students and citi-
zens are exhibiting their appreciation is
very gratifying.
