sex county, died at his home on Union

10Th, at the advanced age of 81 years and
20 days Although he had been somewhat
feeble in health for some time, he had been
i'll only few days and death was due to
an affection Of the heart. In the death of
Mr. Hazard the community loses one of
its best known and most useful citizens.

: Milton public schools close this week.

From present indications the same corps
will be continued, as all are well qualified
for this work.
When Robert Beardsley came to Milton
a few years ago to look for a site on which
to locate his big mill, a prominent citizen
said to him. "There is no possible chance
here for your mill No money, no nothing

his monthly pay roll. tell him the number of
people employed, and the amount of cash
paid out to farmers for timber, that croals
ing citizen would be,or should be, ashamed
to ever open his mouth again to discourage
business enterprise. 1t would be far better
for him to give some of his land to estab-

The outcome Of The city election
in Wilmington is of grave interest
to Republicans all over this State.
As the city goes on Saturday of
next week it is very likely to 90 in
November of next year. All good
Republicans will support the ticket
as nominated and those who do not
give their party their undivided
support in the city of Wilmington
next week will be held responsible
for any detection that may be mani
tested in the ranks ofthe party. Go in
and elect the ticket in the city of
Wilmington and we will be in good
shape to win all along the line in the
State hext year. Let us learn les
son from our opponents. They fight
like cats and dogs out of season but
on election day come up smiling
and shoulder to shoulder fight to- !
gether their opponents. Let the Re
publicans delikewise and they will go |
on winning in this little state which 4
we all love so well; but if the fight
is to be carried on in our own ranks
up to the close of the polls then no
clique or ring or party can ever ex-
pect to be successful. Forget the
little differences in our own party and
only the greater enemy
our Democratic opponents. Il
