BAXTER IS ENTERpRlslN0.


c. L. Smith, editor of the Baxter
Springs News, who has the reputs-
ton of being a good roads crank," I"
was in Columbus Friday evening
very much elated over the action OF
his city in preparing to build good
roads out several miles into the
country. The sleepy old town has
somehow gotten thoroughly
wakened up and the citizens have
subscribed $500 in cash and 81 SOD
has been pledged in work to build
substantial roads east, west, and
south. The road west will encroach
upon Columbus territory and will
mo doubt stir up our people to the
necessity of doing something.
The material for road making at
Baxter is the gravel taken from the
bed of Spring river, which 10 nm
limited in quantity and makes the
finest wagon road known.
While we congratulate our neigh
bors on their enterprise we regret
that all roads do not lead to Colum-
bus.-Columbus Advocate.
