RAILROADS.

II seems that the law of demand
and supply, if it can be called that,
is about to be equalized in relation
TO railroads in our country. By
congressional authority the right
of way, from Arkansas City to Fort
Smith. has been secured, and work
will likely begin soon. Already n
corps of engineers are looking over
the route, by the way OF Fort
Gibson on to Fort Smith. Present
and future advantages, as presented
by the country between the two
points, will, doubtless, control the
course of the road, and the points
TO be touched. Fort Gibson may
be one, or some place near. Gibson
Station may be another, if by so
doing advantages can be secured.
If not, the road may pass south or
north of that place. Muskogee
may prove to be point, as a part
of the route from some crossing on
the Arkansas river, can be laid
south of that stream TO Fort Smith.
In that case Webbers Falls may
have a railroad. A direct or
a meandering route, so as to pass
through the best and most promis-
ing portions of the country, is at
the choice of the company.
That this road will contribute
much to the thrift and prosperity
of the people no one can deny, but
that it may prove a source of
trouble or another Trojan Horse to
our government and institutions
may be as equally sure, some time
in the future.
The road from Rogers to Benton
vile, Arkansas, has been bought
out and is now branch of the
Frisco. If rumor is correct, it will
be extended to The line of our
nation and await congressional
action to come in. Its supposed
route will be by the way of Table
quah and Fort Gibson to an un-
known terminus somewhere. With
these two new roads in the country,
in addition to those already in,
there will be a network of rail
roads that will answer any reason
able demand of travel and
commerce for the next century.

Adair's mind, and the only method
which he has of replying to an
