FROM CONWAY TO HARRISON
A Line Being Surveyed for a Railroad Between These
 Points.

A surveying party consisting of about fifteen men, with three wa gons and full outfit came into Conway from Little Rock last Sat urday morning. They were met here by the Foreman, A. l.. Phil ips, and began to survey line from Conway north.
 MT. Philips, when interviewed | by reporter stated that 1t was his purpose to survey a line from Conway toward Harrison and that another crew was surveying south from Harrison. He denied that there was any connection between his party and the Arkansas North ern line, which he says has fallen through completely. MT. Philips refused to say that he was not con- nected with the Missouri Pacific, but gave out the name of the con- pany backing him as the St. Louis, Oklahoma & Southern.
 It will be seen from glance at the map that Conway is on direct l line from Harrison to Little Rock and that a road between these points would be advantageous from many standpoints. The fact that the survey was begun at Conway lends color to the belief that the Missouri Pacific is behind the scheme, since if the road was built from Harrison to Conway, the tracks of that road from here to Lit tie Rock could be used, and if any other road was making the survey, it would begin at Little Rock.
 By some it is thought that the Frisco is behind the movement, as that company is now building a line from Eureka Springs to liar rison and if the gap between liar son and Little Rock was closed the Frisco would have line from Lit tie Rock to St,Louis. It has been hinted for some time that the Frisco was preparing to reach out for more territory and it may be that this survey is the forerunner of another formidable rival of the Missouri Pacific ill Arkansas.
 Another theory is that 1t is simply bluff" to influence the legisla- ture. It is asserted by some that these surveyors run lines near the homes of the legislators and i'll this way seek to keep laws adverse to railroads from being made. If this be true, it is rather expensive meth cd of intimidating the legislators, as the outhtss provisions and wages of the surveying crew necessarily amounts to good deal.

praised its president, kev. W. II. Berry,
and said If 1t had not been for the good
work OF this league Pearson would not
have been elected sheriff. The only differ

can't make his work a party work. Bnt
both are working for the same ends.
"The victory OF last fall was our victory,
