Patriotic Boys.

A. X. Handy's two sons, Roy
and Sheldon, aged II and 13 re-
spectively, left their fathers
homestead on the headwaters of
the Slletz river in Polk county
last Friday evening after school
closed and walked out to Fall
City, 16 miles, expecting to take
in the Fourth Of July picnic at
that place, but Saturday morning
they thought it would be too tame.
Being anxious to see the sights in
Corvallis, as well as renew their
acquaintance with their father
on the Fourth, they started out
and walked 20 miles, and were
intending to come on through to
Corvallis that day, but were
finally persuaded that it would be
too hard task by Mr.. Quick, of
Soap Greek. They tarried over
night with him and resumed the
journey Sunday morning. getting
d ride the last seven miles of the
way. The boys were a little
weary, but enjoyed hugely the
celebration and the cooking of
their sister, Mrs. J. H. Wilson, OF
this city. The boys have been
patching for month Or more, and
will go back the last of the week
and begin again in the woods
hoping to become so enured to
hardships and their own cooking
that unless the war closes soon
they can become a part of Uncle
Sans soldier boys. They are
manly, heroic little fellows.

Cervera was brave, but there
was method also in his rush for

lated that while most of his ships
would be speedily attacked, some
might be able to escape i'll the
confusion of the moment. This
very thing came near happening
with the Colon. Apparently it
is solely due to the quick de-
cision of Sch1ey that the cap

tS.ALUT.ATORI.

In assuming the business man
aeement and editorial control of
this Journal, the writer finds him
self in an entirely new role.
Whether or not he will be able
to properly interpret the lines
and so express them to his read
ers that they may catch their
true intent, is yet to be deternin-
ed. 1t is to be hoped that the
many readers of the GAZETTE
may withhold their Judgment
until familiarity with the present
environments enables him to
take his true cue, 50 that he may
face his Intelligent and critical
audience without fear of forget
ting his words and ilnparting to
them the life and meaning de-
sired.
To announce that we are a no.
vice in this field Of labor is ca
tire1y useless, as it will no doubt
become too apparent to the news
paper fraternity throughout our
exchange territory as we'll as to
the home family Of this paper.
For many years the GAZETTE
has been a welcome visitor to the
homes OF many of Benton and
Lincoln counties citizens. We
hope that it still may meet with
a warm reception among its old
friends and make many new
ones as the years go by. 1t
would be assumption upon our
part to hope at once to fill ac-
ceptably the chair so we'll and
ably occupied by our numerous
predecessors, but we hope at least
to fill some humble place in the
art preservative, to be attained
we know only by toll, aud
through many disappointnents
and failures. Still striving to
emulate all that has been for
good in the History of this jour
nal in the past, it will be the as
p1ration of the present manag.-
ment to at least keep the GA
zETTE up to the standard of its
former usefulness, and if posi-
bic to attain a higher standard o1
excellence.
The present editor comes to
this trust free of all political en-
tanglements, with no enemies tc
punish, with no personal ami
mos1ties against the leaders,
managers or rank and file of the
republican party in Oregon, will
no supposed political wrongs te
avenge, not having been identi
fed with any supposed cliques
factions or rings.
For nineteen years he has been ;
resident of Corvallis, and during
all that time has become ac
quainted with the larger portion
of the good people of Benton
and Lincoln counties. Here he
has labored, had success and fail
ure and bitter disappolntnents
but through it all has not los
faith in humanity or trust in TIN
common people. For ali the
many courtesies, friendships ant
encouragements given him dur
ing these years this occasion
seems fit to publicly recognize
and gratefully acknowledge
hoping for their continuance IL
this new and untrled field OF la
Dor. To ali old friends we ex
press unfeigned thanks, hoping
to retain them all and be bette
able to serve them in the future
shan in the past. To all nev
