I think you have introduced a newline in the wrong place (which matters because
of the comment) and the code in your .emacs file should look like this:
(require 'package) ;; You might already have this line
(add-to-list 'package-archives
'("melpa-stable" . "https://stable.melpa.org/packages/";) t)
(package-initialize)
However, I don't think you need the first line at all in emacs 25.3.
Something similar works fine for me using emacs 25.2 on Windows 10 to access
melpa-stable.
