Chad's vaIedictory.

There are valedictories. fareVells
and an-songs, Sut this is an in
formative leave-taking thnt my read
ers may understand that after this
date they must not hold me re-
sponsible for any, utterance in this
newspaper. And as broad as tbs
long, my successor must not be
robbed of one whit of the glory
to which any masterpiece Of his pro-
duction may entitle him.
am severing my connection with
the Kennebec Journal after nine
years and more as editorial writer.
I need not review those years of
hopes. ambitions. temporary tri-
umphs. disappointments, heartaches.
All these and more come to all of us.
But I do wish to extend to hundreds

who have from day to day given me
new courage and have held me, per-
haps, through their confidence and
approval to higher course, my
heartfelt thanks and a God bless you,
one and all!
NV determination has been to make
the policy of this newspaper the
right side of every moral question,
the human progress side Of every
problem. My desire has been to help
those of my readers who have not
the facilities or time for analysis Of
public questions. to a better under
standing Of passing events and hap
penings. have the present satisfac-
ton Of evidence that sometimes ]
have been fairly successful in these
aspirations. This referred-to "evi-
dence" consists of a. collection of let
ters and personal notes which money
could not buy from me now. Indeed
I am counting upon the cheering in
nuence of these words from honest,
kindly hearts. to give me new cause
for thankfulness when I shall sit in
the chimney-corner waiting for
death as the poor wait for a legacy.
Almost unbelievable things are to
unfold before the eyes of America in
the months just ahead I am con-
WINGED. and earnestly hope that the
writer who addresses himself to Won
