“ My men grow mutinous day by day;
My men grow ghastly, wan and weak.”
The stout mate thought o f home: a spray
Of salt wave washed his swarthy cheek.
“ What shall I say, brave Adm ’rl, say,
If we sight naught but seas at dawn ?
“ Why, you shall say at break of day :
'Sail on ! sail on ! sail on ! sail on !’ ”
but the chance is too great a one to
take. These lx>ys, who have com
rnitted their first serious sin, have
no doubt received a lesson that will
.keep them in the straight and
narrow path hereafter — but the
lesson is too hard a one to be a
part of the regular education of
the youth of the land.
It has been said that €H) |>er cent
o f the boys and girls who go wrong
do so before M o ’clock at night—
and the streets liefore this hour arc
the place where most o f the lessons
are learned that bring sorrow to
loved ones.
They sailed and sailed, as winds might blow,
Until at last the blanched mate said :
“ Why, now, not even God would know
Should I and all my men fall dead.
These very winds forget their way,
For God from those dread seas is gone.
Now speak, brave A dm ’rl : speak and say—
He said : “ Sail on ! sail on ! sail on ! ”
They sailed. They sailed. Then spake the mate,
“ This mad sea shows his teeth tonight.
He curls his lip, he lies in wait,
With lifted teeth as if to b ite!
Brave A dm ’rl, say but one good word,
What shall we do when hope is gone?”
The words leapt as a leaping sword :
He said : “ Sail on ! sail on ! sail on !”

The Spectator would lose much of its scintillating sprightliness if
The Oregonian should discard its editorial page for a week. The
vigor, the wit, the sarcasm, used in flaying this adversary beggars the
English language and greatly embellishes the pages of The Spectator.
Roosevelt .is writing his autobiography. If he lacks anything in
filling the volume, we could suggest a number o f people who would be
pleased to inject a chapter or two— and who might tell things the
olonel is qdite likely to overlook.
It is sometimes hard for a newspaper to decide between its duty to
its readers and its natural inclination to follow the Golden Rule.
The man who puts money into a furniture factory in Cottage
Grove will be rated a far-sighted business man.

BREAKING HEARTS.
U RIN G the past week the hearts o f a number of Cottage Grove
J j
parents have been wounded. Their pride has been humiliated.
Mothers’ tears have been shed.
Their boys, t h e i r b o y s , have
broken the laws, although through the sympathy of those wronged and
rebtitutiou made by parents, they did not get into its toils.
But a few years ago these strapping lads were cooing babes— their
fair skin, soft and velvety, was pressed affectionately against that of
happy fathers and mothers— laughing blue eyes reflected only inno­
cence— a little later and they romped around the house in short pants,
while parents dreamed o f what the future might have in store for their
dear little tada. If ever there was a fear that that future might bring
sorrow to those who had given them life, it soon faded into the rose-

the University o f Oregon debating
team, which was to have met Utah in
Salt Lake Saturday was too ill to
compete, the debate did not take place.
It waa postponed until last night, when
Vernon Motschenbacher, the Oregon
substitute, arrived to fill Pickett's
place.
While en route Pickett developed an
attack o f the mumpa, an epidemic of
which haa been going the rounda and
waa forced to take to hia bed, unable
to talk above a whisper.
Negotiationa were opened with the
Utah management to have the debate
postponed, and the arrangement waa
made. Vernon Motachenbacher on a
few hours’ notice, left for the scene o f
the contest.
Motachenbacher was a member of the
Oregon team which defeated the Wash­
ington team in Eugene. The question
waa tha same as that with Utah that

he waa prepared to step into the
breach.
The ohampionahip o f six western
states in debate ia at stake in the Salt

the Pacific Coast title by defeating
Washington and Stanford. Utah holds
the supremacy In the triangular league,
which embraces Idaho and Colorado.
