At no time In the history of this county lias in t ini si asm for greater and better thoroughfares either of a local or general nature, surpassed that which now burns steadily in the breast of Die average county patriot. 'I he tact that good roads have long ceased to oe au expense to the builders, hut. on tire contrary, are an established in vestment, paying frequent un i large dividends, appears to have grippe'I and Imbued the average taxpayer and resident of tills part of the state in a way and manner impossible of ga/u saying The fact i- significant that the county has alwaxs figured fore most in imjirovements of this charac ter, the judicial records for decades past and even to the period when road construction xvas tegarded as an extreme!) d i Hi cult undertaking. Phillips count \ lias possessed men of inflexible xvill and | or pose, where the ends justified the construction of standard highways. KIM I tt\I Ml DKt.Kn ATI s KVIIIISKO, "The returnitig delegates from the first convention of tlie cross state highway, which met amid inviron ments of greatest enthusiasm at For rest City, during the early part of the week, reached home in spirits exuber ant of the monster proposal in hand. ■•Phillips county, while not direct ly involved in the path of the pro ; posed thoroughfare from Memphis to Little Hock. K nevertheless sufficient ly close to the Monroe county line to render an intersection with ihe main line most essential. The county to-j day possesses upwards of *po miles of, jgood, substantial roadway, the latter ! | vivisecting the district from every! point and quarter of the compass. •‘Judge Moliter, recently elected j ! county judge, i- also a good roads! ! enthusiast and is an officer who re 1 I j gards matters of this character in a ! generous and productive light. The I matter ol Phillips' attitude in the i monster movement, while not j I definitely outlined is nevertheless j closely allied with all that signifies j progress and that which is best and most beneficial for the taxpayers and property holders of ttie district. The county is hearti \ in accord with the proposal and when t he next organ ized gathering of road representa tives and citizens takes place to map out more definite details, this dis trict and county , as forming a part of the worthy proposal, will he found foremost among the ranks of the en thusiasts " Mr. A M. Wheeler, ot Madison, manager of the large Wheeler Saw milling plant at that point was u i visitor to this oftice last Friday. The gentleman said lie felt good over the great good roads meeting that had recently lieen held in lids city lie said that the firm, ot which lie was a representative, viz . -J. W. Wheeler & Co., owned something like I.500 acres of cut-over timber land along tlie mute of this new road in St. Francis county and that his company was ready t<> cough up 15, :m and even '•J5 cents an acre in cash to aid in tlie building of a macadamized turnpike load between Madison and Metnph and that he also felt that the citizens of the litt le town of Madison would put up us much for this road as any other small town along the route of the proposed road. Mr. Wheeler said that neither he nor ids people favored the issuance of bonds, but tliey stood ready to put up whatever share of the money it might be necessary to insure the success of the road. The Times liked the way Mr. Wheeler talked, as It shows the meeting held here is already bearing good fruit. It takes money as well »s brains to build roads. California Woman Seriously Alarmed.
