r5?Put Smith, a noted stock man,
who has invested largely in blooded sheep
arrived in Orogon again recently and will
make arrangements lor distributing here
among sheep owners, of a lot of thorough
bred merino bucks. HewillairriveatA
toiia with several head of young bucks
about the first of June. See advertise
ment. JWe rei'er our readers to the adver
tisement of a farm for sale -on Deep river.
This is the best opportunity that we know
of lor any man wanting a good place,
cheap, suitable for dairying or farming
purpo-es. The onry reason for wishing
to sell, is that the present owner Mr. C.
M. Stark is about to engage in other busi
ness. iZKlt is not the polished orator
who shapes public opinion, but the quiet
editor, whose words go out to the public
ear without parade or ceremony. The
orator may please the car or tickle the fan
cy; but the editor does mere: He satisfies
the mind, and carries to every household a
fund of knowledge. The orator, by burn
ing words and impassioned eloquence,
may drive men to aense of duty; but an
editor it he be true to his profession, at
tracts men by the presentation of his
thoughts which appeal to the nobler qual
ities of head and heart. The words of the
orator drop from the lips and are lost,
while the words of the editor drop from
the press, and like coined money, pass for
what they are worth; if pure gold in the
truths conveyed, they pass current every
where. For good or evil, the edito
wields a powerful influence. He can exalt
or debase a community. He can advance
public corruption. How important, then,
that the editor should be a good man, and
that all papers that convey correct senti
ment to the public ear&houlu leceive lib
eral support.
How Advertising Affects Busi
ness. The man who advertises his busi
ness, if what he offers for sale is honestly
what he represents it to be or what it ought
to be, is constantly assisted in his business
by those who have been attracted to him
and tested him. A buyer has read his
adveitisement, and gone to his store or
work shop, warehouse, whatever it may
be, and tried what was recommended.
If it has satUHed him he is pleased and i .
commends it to his neighbor, who is likely
to go to the same place and tell his neigh
bor in turn. And thus little rills stai ted
by his advertisement flow in upon him
from all side, and the current of his busi
ness grows stronger and wider and more
rapid, and he prospers and grows rich, all
because strict attention in business he
added judicious advertising. But for this
he might have lingered on in the commu
nity lor years and his business would
scarcely have been heard of.
An Editor's Appeal. As the report
that we are very wealthy has gone abroad
among our subscribers, and has made
them awful slow about paying up, think
ing, doubtless, we do not want the money,
we hasten to &ay the report of our wealth
is false in every particular. If ocean
steamers were selling at a cent a dozen,
we could not make the first payment on
a canoe. The lightning of poverty has
struck us square, and had it not been for
an armful of hay which our devil man
aged to steal from a blind mule, our
family ouki be without a mouthful
to eat at the present moment. Is
not this a sad picture, and can you de
linquent subscribers look upon it without
feeling the coin rattle with indignation in
your pockets. We do not like to dun you
but we must if you fail to take the hint.
"It Pays to Advkrtisk." This is true in
every department of, business, and no one ap
preciates its truth more fully than S. 11.
Thompson. Some time since he received the
Agency, for this county, of the Cunningham
'Garden City Clipper I'low," and immediate
ly advertised the same in our paper. Green
B. Smith, Ksq.. a patron of the Gazette, saw
the advertisement and forthwith rushed to
Thompson's and purchased four of these cele
brated plowfl which at once have sprung into
popular favor. 2s o mater how good and valu
able an article may be, a merchant or dealer
may keep it upon his shelves, or in his store
for months, or even years, and but lew will
know anything of its good qualities, unless he
advertises, tor years Jlr. Thompson carried
on business here, and spent but little for
advertising. Within the past two years his
business has increased nearly double, and he
attributes it to judicious advertising. If you
want to thrive in business, ADVKBTiSKCor
