MILTON NEWS.

Last week was one partly of disaster.
On Monday the Royal Packing Cos ma
chinery broke, and the cannery was idle
for hours, or until the breakage was re-
paired. On Tuesday the public schools
which had opened on Monday took a re-
cess for two weeks. On Wednesday the
cannery Of Winters & Prophet was dis
abled, and a machinist had to be sent for
from Wilmington. The machinist came
to Harrington in time to miss the train
on the lower road and an automobile was
sent from Milton after him. He arrived
late on Wednesday afternoon; and it was
not until Saturday at noon that the can
merry resumed business. There we're
about II 900 baskets on hand at the time
Of the accident. The foreign help of this
canneTy, and from another, were engaged
on Sunday in culling the bad tomatoes
from the good; and the bad ones were
hauled and thrown into branch nearby;
about one-iifth of the entire lot only were !
fit to use. The baskets in which were
the rotten ones were also ruined. Mr.. |
Winters said he had never had such an 4
before.
In the history of the canning business
n Milton there never has been such a
ush of tomatoes. The acreage has been
arger, and the yield very yes, extremely
,rolific. The rush is still on, and will
ir0bably continue the most of the pres
mt week. The other canneries have
cen, by herculean exertions, able to
andle what they have received; and the

resorted to nothing more than the
use of their editorial columns
Back to Our Mutton" was the cap
tion used by Urey Woodson, editor
of the Messenger. in referring to
his esteemed contemporary" judge
S. w. Hager, editor of the Inquirer.
In this editorial Woodson accuses
Hager of "duplicity and falsehood. "
Comes the following in reply
from Judge Hager:
"Woodson is still fiounderine
around trying to divert the minds
of the people from the real issue.
that of municipal ownership
which so materially affects the in
terests Of greensboro, but his efforts
are not only futile but pathetic. He
may rave and cavOrt. tear his flow
ing locks, and beat the tom-tom tc
his little hearts content, but he Is
deceiving no one but himself Tho
people are wise to his purpose, and
men, women and children, from one
end of the city to the other, are
laughing at the pitiable spectacle
he Is making of himself"
This brief note Is the Messengers
latest:
Mr.. Woodson was called to New
York yesterday on an imperative
matter of business. He will attend
to the Hager person when he re-
turns in a few DAYS"

The infant of Mr.. and Mrs. Celes-

burned to death Saturday morning

caught fire and burned to the
ground. q total loss. Mrs. Ward
and her two-year-old daughter left
about Q O'Clock and went to neigh
boris house not so very far away,
leaving the baby asleep in it's crib
in the kitchen. Mr.. Ward was at
work in field, and it is not
known how the house caught on
fire. although it is supposed that
fire fell from the stove and set fire
to the floor.
The first known of the blaze was
when Mrs. Ward noticed the flames
bursting through the roof. She ran
quickly and carried the crib from
the burning dwelling and extin-
guished the flames, but the baby,
frightfully burned, was dead. The
remains were buried Saturday af-
ternoon in the Catholic cemetery at

London, May 17.-"Should war
break out, the sympathies of Aus
tralia, New Zealand and Western
Canada would be violently on the
side of the United States" says the
Pail Mall Gazette, in discussing the
Californian alien land ownership
controversy.
This newspaper considers that it
would be grave mistake to under
estimate the chances of a conflict
\between the United States and ia
Pan. 1t says:
"The opinion that the Japanese
will never go to war to enforce
treaty rights in California is one of
those dangerous generalities which
lead nations blindfolded to the
brink of a pit"
The Pail Mall Gazette expresses
the opinion that there are several
reasons why Japan may be DESTROYS
of forcing the issue at the present
moment. The most obvious of
these is the pending opening of the
\ Panama Canal. while a more re-
)mote one is connected with the con-
dition of her internal politics.
