, ^’he cost of permanent roads
brought a road improvement
'district organized of the country
;tipon either side ,of a proposed
roadway,, kpeps many a land
owner or actively op
posed to suph an improvement.
TJ'hey both look not to the bene
fits and increased valuations of
what they own. ,but keep their
»yes focused upon the first cost
and yearly tax until the bonds
.^re retired. Improved high
ways increase hind valuations
far more than they cost, not to
mention the convenience, pleas
ure and profit that result from
their use to these land owners
along the route, This statement
can be proven along every per
manent road constructed in any
state. To you landowners, who
wish to increase the value of
your holdings, to make a $5,000
farm worth $8,000, where
are you offered a better means
of increasing your wealth than
through the (building of real
roads? If you have a friend or
kinsman in some section, where
a permanent road has been con
structed through an improve
is^nt district, write him for his
v«?*perience and find for yourself
whether or npt( such highways
dp not pay (big increases in valu
ation for the money invested.

White County Not All Of It.
White County has long been
divided within itself. Searcy
and thprnorth half of the county
Hndl Beebe, El Paso' and the
South end have always stood
t(unfortunate condition is known
(o prevail in that county, the
Kays forces declare that Arkan
sas should repudiate^ Brundidge
(because lie failed^y* less than
00 votesto carry' White county
ver a popular idol, Senator Da
Vis.
I (Entrust the governorship to
Kays because of this factional
Ssm and jealousy in White. Don't
(raise any higher ^noral or poljtl
ical standaras than these. Just
{because Senator Davis carried
White county, give the state of
{Arkansas to Hays, "the voters
bf Arkansas had better do away
with state elections apd let
White county settle it up&ft the
issues of a previous campaign
complicated with, i,he aMyq iupjp
tioned jealousies and petty local
differences:’*’ ✓‘T '''T
It is certaifclyfa trtbute tin Mi*.
HWhndidge that his opponents
attach sq m,6ch si gpifigar.ee to
his failure to carry White coun
ty over Senator Davis, at t time
when probably no man in the
state could have done a - well
M* lw. T+WW —iMi
further and fell why Brundidge
Ijhds personal- enemies ■ id'• tire
southern half of White county;
because he was a fearless pros
ecuting attorney and diet not
court the-good wilUqf any-Jaw
less element, i^e dd jnot nji^arf
that hi* ofiponents-ati home are
lawless men, but we do mean
ilhat violators ,the law wh<*
Suffered tfifough hikAdministra

Horney, are reported; ;to be as

l«:a
But are such enemies to dis
credit a mail? The vulnera
ble and weak point's of the gen
tleman from Searcy must be few
and slight or the Robinson ma
chine would be putting oujt
some better arguments, for their
friend, Hays. So far as White
county is concerned, we would
not rob her of a proper voice in
the coming primary, but we do
think the remainder, of the state
of Arkansas should have some
part in the selection of our gov
ernor, though ttyere appears to
be little doubt that White coun
ty will be found strongly upon
the side of her distinguished
son.
