AS YOUR EXECUTOR FOR THE oI th* chief factor* iW kt b among tboa* who r msidsri th* wk by the State to tbe Southern Railway of th* old Cap* Fear and Yadkin Val ley railroad a* a tragedy. How can th* State got hack this Atlantic and Yadkin road* "By purr haw If necoaaary," Mr. Hcalo* ■aid. TW Atlantic and Yadkin will ho put on the auction block on* of tboa* day* by th* receivers. Attorney* of tho State ha** already petitioned that the Southam b* not allowed to reac quire it, by purchase or othorwto*. That petition, heard by Judge E. Y.te. Webb, of Shelby, of United State* Court, Western North Carolina District, was dismissed because he held that be had no jurisdiction in th* matter. The Southern claimod that the sale of the road by the State had h**n upheld by the State Suprcaao Court and confirmed by n succeeding legislature But, anyway, th* State must get bark this road, in th* opin ion of Mr. Scale*. Tho "Atlantic" part of the name Atlantic and Yadkin is a travoaty, those who would see the road re turned to the State or reacquired by the State hold. Sanford. the eastern terminus of the road, ia far from any salt water. Mr. Scales ia among those who would make the nam* "Atlantic" mean somethinK *> far as the ra'lroad is concerned. Since being operated by th* re ceivers. Capt. J. W. Fry, of this city, and A. E. Sm th. of Mount Airy, the road has made some morey. It has shown a profit in aosne of the months that H has been operated and it baa been abt» to pay the semi-annual interest on the bonds, WO,000 a throw, regularly. Suggested buyers when the road Is offered at aqrtion: The State of North Carolina. The Norfolk and Western railroad. The Southern railway. Henry Ford. Of these four, Mr. Scales regard* the State aa the most logical pur chaser. It built the road. It sold it and. look what bappendod. It waa sold and "dismembered"—some call the dismemberment slmost a rrint*. The road went into a receivership. It dwindled. Started when there waa vision before the people, it i* now a single track line, a "feeder" for the Southern railway. The Norfolk and We*tern has been suggested a* a purchaser because it crosses the Atlantic and Yadkin at Walnut Co** and would thus b* able to improve facilities and make the Atlantic and Yadkin big. with direct connection with th* rasl fields TIM Southern has been rnqnttd in i Hrt of negative way, by the petition of the State that it not bo owed to hlrnn ownor affair of the road, showing that the State officiate da expect thd Southern to Mkt a bid for the Una. Henry Ford has been suggested as a possible buyer because he has a principality of coal Holds in Kentucky. The theory is that be would buy the Ihte, connect it with kit coal fields and build a line from Sanford oa to the Atlantic, probably to South port, to carry Ma autotnobilee and parte to deep water sad there ship by cheap water rates to potato oa the Atlaatic seaboard southward and to Central and South America.
