FLOODED WITH FRUIT.
Watermelons, Bananas and Pineap
pies Going For Song at Atlanta.

Watermelons, Bananas and Pineap-
pies Going For Song at Atlanta.
Atlanta, July As a result of the
railroad tie-up in the west the shipment
of fruits and melons have congested in
Atlanta to such an extent that they are
being sold here cheaper than ever known.
Hundreds of carloads of watermelons
destined for Chicago, st. Louis and other
western points, have been side
tracked and the railroads are almost
giving them away In many instances
they are selling them at less than
the actual cost of bringing them
as far as Atlanta. The fruit stands are
literally overfOwing with pineapples
and bananas stopped here in their way
west. Bananas are being literally dis
posed of at 25 cents a bunch, and pine
apples are going at from TO cents
apiece Prices are getting cheaper every
day, and if the tie-Rp continues, the con
gestion of fruit shipments here win be so
great as to make it necessary either TO
give it away or have it rot without being
disposed Of
MEAT FANTININE PROBABLE.
COnsidera BILE anxiety is manifested
among the meat men on account of the
shortage of their western meat shipments.
The western brokers have notified the
butchers here that they cannot guarantee
further shipments in any quantity The
local markets are already making prep
aratiOns to kill domestic cattle for use in
stead of western beef, the sale Of which
has grown to such an extent in the south
during the past few years as to practi-
Cally stop the killing Of southern cattle
for market purposes.
The grocers and produce men are max
ing unusually heavy orders on the country
for chickens, and even if the strike CON
tinues indefinitely the people of Atlanta
will manage to get along fairly well on
cheap fruit and an abundant chicken mar
ket, with such meat as comes from the
killing of home cattle
The home market industry is greatly
reserved, and, if the embargo continues,
the people will manage to get along as
they did before they bought western
beef

Skelton boys at Scottsboro, in which

IT would seem from the resOlu-

h)ma have receded from their pl-
sition of single statehood or none
as generally understood by the
rank and file and as advocated
by the most C nservative and
brainiest newspaper men of that
territory. It's some consolation,
however, that all the newspaper
boys do not support the Fesolu

have done had they been drawn
more in C inform ty to their wishes.

A CITY is judged by the charac-
ter of it's population. The main
thing to be guarded against is the
lack of protection to the rights of
person and property at the hands
OF thugs and thieves, which infest
most every town of any conss-
uuence. In the states a town can
rid itself of this undesirable ele-
ment under the vagrant law. We
do not know but We are of the
opinion that the Arkansas law is
amply sufficient to reach them in
the Indian Terri Ory. If so it
should be vigorously enforced in
Ardmore. We have no earthly
use for any such class, the mcm-
bers of which seek dark places to
commit darker deeds. Our night
watchman is vigilant and faithful
but it is a physical impossibility
for him to watch all these fellows
at once. Vag them if the law will
permit.
