ANAHEIM GAZETTE. SATURDAY, OCTOBER 29, 1970. ADVERTISERS. We ask the indulgence of our advertisers, for any apparent disorder in the make up of this number, and assure them that a proper classification will take place in the next issue. THE "GAZETTE" Well, here is the Anaheim Gazette. After various delays and annoyances, incident to establishing a business, our paper goes forth to the light of day in tolerable good order. Elsewhere we give a few scraps of the many things published of us. Many other things privately said have reached our private car. In substance, the latter amount to but this: Our jealous acquaintances say we will not succeed; that the resources of the City of Anaheim and the Southern portion of the county, are not sufficient to support a newspaper. Our friends (thank heaven we have six) say never was there so bright a prospect, the time is ripe, and you, Barter, have occupied the field. In both these expressions the “wish” is parent to the “opinion,” and both are mere rattling, half digested words. We are much inclined to side with the opinion of our friends. However as the days of prophecy have passed some thousands of years, and as the future is all unknown even for one short hour, time alone must determine the success of the “Gazette”. Only grant that we know more of our own affairs and of the newspaper business, than those who pass adverse opinions upon us, and who for the most part have passed their Causes of D It was the intention that should issue, first, on the ber, but before that date two causes occurred, which result out of the question: these was a drunken print and a sick printer. At the employed, as foreman, age as we thought would normal service, by his experience. Alas! how grievous deceived. The old hypocrite in the army—was constricted to labor—and had no day since his boyhood enough, the Anaheim was much for him. He got start, and remained biffed drunk, during his brief weeks in our employ. We set. He set at it.

The stage being on the w day, we hired a vehicle Los Angeles, and triumph with our new foreman, we would abide with us during life.

However as the days of prophecy have passed some thousands of years, and as the future is all unknown even for one short hour, time alone must determine the success of the "Gazette". Only grant that we know more of our own affairs and of the newspaper business, than those who pass adverse opinions upon us, and who for the most part have passed their obscure lives, pitchfork in hand within the purlious of some congenial Barnyard, and we are satisfied. OUR COURSE. It is but natural that the people should inquire what attitude politically or otherwise, a newspaper is to assume, whenever one is established among them. To meet then, this inquiry, we volunteer a statement of the Policy of the Gazette, so far as is now known to its Editor: For the present or until some strong political feeling in the land may oblige us to treat of politics, we propose to ignore them altogether. We have stated in our Prospectus, that we were to be "Independent," and to be Independent, means simply to sustain the best men and measures for the common good, so far as the same appears to the editor and proprietor of a newspaper. We, fortunately, engage in publishing this paper by own reason and will, untrammeled by any, and compelled in no way to support any faction or institution; and so help us Jupiter, as we value freedom and independence, we will try to sustain this attitude. If there is one trait in the human mind, that can be called despicable and which brands its possessor as a first class scoundrel, it is that one which actuates the giving forth of personal vituperation, and assailing the character of another, through the medium of the Press. We loath and despise it. We were raised in a different school of writers; and had we not been, our instincts would naturally recoil from such a course. Yet, should we, now and then see proper to administer a wholesome rebuke, or admonition to cer- life. Well, you all remember blue wind storm we had last that wind that settled which I possessed could with a "bustid" blood vessels, to remain longer.

We loath and despise it. We were raised in a different school of writers; and had we not been, our instincts would naturally recoil from such a course. Yet, should we, now and then see proper to administer a wholesome rebuke, or admonition to certain insolent curs, that ill winds have occasionally brought us into unwilling contact with throughout this State, our readers will bear in mind that we know whereof we speak, that the Gazette is our own newspaper, and that we reserve that especial privilege from the start. OCLD DRY SEASON. The dry season has drawn to a close, the bountiful rains of an approaching winter are upon us. The temporary check to the growth and prosperity of Southern California, produced by the drought need give no cause of alarm, for among all our people, few there are indeed who do not find themselves better off to day, than at the beginning of the year. In the valley of Anaheim, happily there is no doubt of this, for our people have raised abundant crops of corn and vegetables and the wine has turned out largely in excess of any other season. Let our people be of good cheer, for the future of this valley is as full of hope and promise as any in the whole country. CROWDED OUT.—Two columns of advertisements have been unavoidably left out of this issue; they will appear in our next. WHAT THE NEWSPAPER Following we give a few merous complimentary notes by us from the Press, thereto: NEW PAPER.—We have a prospectus for the public Anaheim Gazette, at Ana Angeles county, by George Mr. Barter was for some of the publishers of the Los A Star.

Causes of Delay. was the intention that the Gazette had issue, first, on the 22d of October before that date approached, because occurred, which put such a delay out of the question. The first of it was a drunken printer, the second sick printer. At the outset, we prayed, as foreman, a man of such mind we thought would render us sign-service, by his experience and counsellor Alas! how grievously were we served. The old hypocrite had been in the army—was constitutionally opposed to labor—and had not seen a sober since his boyhood. Naturally, the Anaheim wine was too sour for him. He got drunk at the bar and remained blind, speechless, during his brief term of two years in our employ. We had "pi" to the set at it. Daily we looked at pol," but where it decreased in one it increased in another, until nearly compelled a speedy dissolution of business connection. Next, we of a competent man at Los Angeles engaged him by telegraph.
