in n
P u b lish ed every T hursday a t Nyssa, M alheur C ounty, Oregon.
E n tere d a t the postoffice a t Nyssa, Oregon, for transm ission
th ro u g h the U nited S tates Mails, as a second class m a tte r under
the act of M arch 3, 1879.
To escape com m ent or criticism , do nothing, be nothing,
say nothing.
We forgot to com m ent last week that The Nyssa G ate
City Jo u rn a l had a birthday and is going into its 54th
y ear of publication in Nyssa. A nniversaries are fre
quently overlooked now adays although a business is
usually proud of its “age” ra th e r than being like an in
dividual who reaches his 39th birthday once a year.
In attem pting to visualize all the things th a t m ight
have taken place during a 55-year period, we can do
little m ore than point out that 2,756 issues of T he Jo u r
nal have gone to the readers of the Nyssa com m unity.
N ever has an issue of the paper failed to reach the post
office som etim e during the week it was published.
If it w ere possible to ascertain the m illions of w ords
th a t have been w ritten, the history th a t has been re
corded and the w eek-by-w eek accounts of happenings
th a t affect those who started com m unities in this area
and those w ho are now carrying on, the final analysis
would be unbelievable, even to the present publisher.
The G ate City Jo u rn al has had num erous ow ners and
publishers and all of them have been a p a rt of life in the
Nyssa and A drian com m unities. M any business firm s
have come and gone during the Jo u rn a l’s 53 years of
existence and it is obvious w ithout com m ent th at those
still here outnum ber the ones th at fell by the w ayside
for one reason or another. All of them have m ade your
new spaper possible by th e ir continued support through
the years, ju st as have the subscribers who read the
w eekly new spaper each issue.
