Subscribe for the Sentinel. VOL VI NO 20 A General Salutation. The Texas journalist, who had been summer-fallowing himself on a stock ranch for a couple of years, Suddenly assumed control of a country weekly, and in the first issue utter he struck the quarter deck he published a small and unpretentious card, in which he said: “The former editor of this sheet is practically and politically dead,but the Sausage still survives. It is just as well though, and a mighty sight better, as I am a boss at editin, and sling one of the most caustic and flu ' ent quills West of the Red River. I have a record behind me which doesnt need a new scat of white-wash every spring, like that other editor which recently peyunked and drawed out of the game. “At gitten up obituaries I’m a tos sel top, and if there’s any hitch in the program I can generally furnish a fresh corpse on short notice, and nt the usual slight advance on cost of in sertion. 1 merely throw this as a feet er to the opposishun, which I hear is a massing its forces agin me and my paper, and by the speckled faced, bow legged, cock-eyed gods of war there’ll be a power of high-priced opera mu sic Moating in the air if any of them try to climb me. "If there is enny corte house ring in this sweet scented locality, I’ll get on to it, sure us you’re a foot high. If there is to be any munkying with the free-born, untrameled country dele gates to the next county convention, I’ll be there with my face washed and my hair combed back of my ears “I’ve licked many a good man, and I’ve been licked once or twice in my variegated career, but I’ve always no ticed that them fellers who whipped me were not the same men afterward, and drooped along lor awhile like a suu stroke tomato vine, and finally dropped into the grave with a dull thud, having kinder outlived their usefulness. “I want it distinctly remembered that I’m in from the back counties, and an’t up to the cote etiket of the strawberry blonde or the pulpy dude. If 1 make any miscues it will be more an error of the head thun the heart; but, for all that, 1 propose to run * jam-up sizziug hot, nifty little paper, and move along with the best kind of harmony. But if harmony bucks, and tries to do any dirt on me, har mony will have to git off the truck and leave me glide right inter the confidence of the public. “If this journal .ays iinytbiag out of the way and grieves any mOttel faeod tender-foot, remember I’m the man he wants to see about it! There an’t no back stairs or back windows to this sanctum sunctoriinu. I'm al ways in. I'm ever on the tripod, and now with those few brief re marks 1 cordially invite everybody’s co operation and subscriptions.
