ARKANSAS IN LINE.

The People Of tho south Demand n Bet
ter system of Roads.
In his recent message to the general
assembly Of Arkansas. Gov Eagle
wrote as follows concerning the public
roads Of his state:
NO agency is more successful in
building up the general interests in
any country than spirit OF harmony
and unity Of sentiment with its citi-
xens and nothing tends so far towards
increasing this friendly feeling as local
trade and frequent communion of the
inhabitants with each other, either in
a business or social way. So it may be
said that good roads lead through good
and happy communities.
In some parts of Arkansas it has
been considered almost impossible 10
build and maintain good roads The
subject has been discussed ut great
length by the legislature, the public
press and in road conventions.
In the older. more dcnsclv popu-
lated states, with better facilities for
building aud maintaining roads than
we have, it Is still mooted question.
with the requisite amount OF labor
iudicially managed. any obstacle may
be overcome and the most difficult
work can be accomplished.
The questions: What 70 do with
convict labor. and what 10 do without
the labor needed on the public roads.
with very little Legislation, might. in
measure. be adjusted. The criminal
laws should be SO amended as 70 in
crease the offcnse Of petit larceny from
$40 TO SEQ, and tho penalty should be
made commensurate to the offensc.
The statute providing failing SEN
fences for crime should also bc amended
by substituting fines for imprisonment,
which. when not paid. should be
worked ont on public roads.
THE present law requiring all male
Persons from the ages Of IS TO ~ ia
work on public roads six days in a
year should not be changed.
County courts should be required ia
levy i-mill tax for road purposes.
with proper economy this could be
done
To make cffcctual such road laws
each county should have "a board on
committee to superintcnd and direct
'he work. This board should receive
no other pay than exemption from
road and jury duty"
