FARMERS ARE JUBILANT.

the upper White river valley
are jubilant over the rain which
foil the past week. The corn
crop had made its last stand
a week ago, and was tottering
but is green and waxy now.
June was dry and hot, and
wheat, oats and hay were har
vested without a shower. With
the big corn crop now certain,
little feed will be sold in the
valley this winter. Cotton is
in excellent shape.
We have several pieces of
good property for sale, and if

STRIKERS AT HOXIE
FORCE MEN TO LEAVE
Meet Missouri Pacific Train 1
and Force 35 Men to
Leave Town
Hoxie, July 10.—Quiet pre
vailed here tonight after strik
ing shopmen had forced 35
men, supposedly strike break
ers or guards, to leave town
after disarming 32 of the num
ber who were equipped with
Winchester pumpguns and 1,
000 rounds of ammunition. The
union men, however, are meet
ing all trains to guard against
any strike breakers being un
loaded here. Some time after '
the men had been driven from
town a southbound train pass
ed through Hoxie with 27 men,
supposed to be strike breakers,
aboard. They were met at the
station by union men and
warned not to stop here. No '
one got off the train and they 1
continued on south, presumably 1
headed for Little Rock.
The men who were driven
from town reached here about !
> o’clock this morning over the 1
iron Mountain road, coming 1
n from the north. They were
47 j
n-ought in in work cars which
Deluded five or six bunk cars. ‘‘
When their presence be- 1
■ame known about 100 strikers 1
narched to the sidetrack *
vhere their cars had been
daced and told them they
mist go back. The union men (
hen demanded that all arms j
ind ammunition be turner ov- 1
*r to them. This was done and *
ifter each man had been giv- 1
■n a receipt for his gun and 1
immunition, the lot was stack- 1
.*d in the city hall. It is said 1
lone of the strikers was arm- ;
■d.
The men wer eplaced on
Missouri Pacific train north- (
iound, when it came through 1
loxie about 9 o’clock.
Doubt was expressed today :
is to where the men came *
Tom. Many were of the opin- 1
on that they might have come 1
n from the south and been I
letoured at Knobel to enter (
Hoxie from the north. 1
A fire alarm was turned in
from the railroad roundhouse
ibout 10 o’clock this morning,
jut the blaze was extinguished
before any damage was done.
It is not known how the fire
darted.
