Private detectives and a wry frontier note in Milton
A fragment from a late 19th century rural paper recounts Milton headlines about private detectives and a outspoken Milton Eagle editor Hull. It touches on a runaways tale in Walla Walla with a fugitive husband and a moral digression, then shifts to hog demand from Pacific Meat Company and forecasts of hog purchases across Eastern Oregon and Washington. References to deaths, alchol poison, and local affairs appear in passing.
