One Way Out.

Editor Ardmoreite:
The coal barons and railroad mag
mates have peremptorily refused to
submit their differences with the coal
miners to arbitration even Of the pres
ident or any court he may appoint.
When any body of men decline to ar
hitrate or submit 10 investigation Of
their claims it is evident that they
know their cause will not bear the
light OF Justice. Even if they we're
in the right and the other side abso-
mtely wrong. no III could come from
submission to the inquiries of an i'm
partial court But 1t is a conspiracy
of these corporations against the la.
borers and against the public welfare
Surely there must be a way to restrain
such conspiracy and to compel them
to remember that the people should
not suffer for their wrong doing. Ar.
raign them for conspiracy and let the
miners furnish fuel under government
force If necessary.

port Of the weather bureau IS as fol.
lows:
Partly cloudy to cloudy. cool
weather prevailed during the week.
Showers occurred generally September
% and were scattered over the sec
tion September "a, 25 and 27. Farm
work was retarded in the forepart Of
the week by the wet condition of the
ground, but progressed during the lat.
ter part. Cotton progressed slowly,
with good to poor yields reported over
the various localities. The recent heavy
rains caused considerable damage to
the crop by beating the crop out on
the ground and by staining It, but were
of benefit to the late cotton. About
half Of the crop has been secured.
The lint, color and staple continues
good.
Corn, broom and kafir corn, cane
and hay crops are being secured with
fair to good yields. Late June corn,
kafir corn, potatoes and turnips have
been benefited by the rains. Flowing
for wheat continued with the ground
in fine condition, but owing to the wet
ground very little seeding was done.
The early sown wheat and rye are up
to a good stand, and are making good
growth. The wheat acreage has been
increased. Pastures and range grass
improved and are in good condition.
Stock is doing well. Late apples are
making a fair to good yield
