Good Roads Matter Again.

The dopinating principle in the Brownlow- -Latimer bill for na- tional aid to, highway improve ment isthat good roads are state and national necessities, there fore their construction is a joint state and national obligation; that,good roads being of prime importance tofurther state, and national development and prog ress, it is necessary that road building be systematized, and that it be done on approved plans,
 and that the roads constructed be of a quality that is the best.
 Everybody is interested in better roads, whether living in the city or in the country. The farmer may be more directly interested,
 because he has more frequent use for the roads, but the town or city dweller is directly interested because he is dependent on the farmer for most of the things he eats, and ease of transportation to market certainly. affects not only the price but the quality.

HOXIE EXPECTS UNION DEPOT.
looking for Frisco and iron Mountain to Put Up Handsome Brick
 Structure There.

Hoxie, Sept. 3.-It is a con- ceded fact that the Frisco rail- road will in the near future be- gin the construction of a heavy steel bridge across Black river at Pocahontas.
 It is reported on what seems to be good authority that after the new bridge at Pocahontas is built that this place will be made the southern terminus of that part of the Frisco system known as the Sr. Louis, Memphis and Southeastern, running from St. Louis via Cape Girardeau and Pocahontas to this place and a division will be located here.
 Preparatory to locating a new division here the St. Louis, Mem phis & Southeastern will shortly begin removal of connecting the switch with the main line of the Iron Mountain, changing location of tanks and coal chutes.
 A recent survey was made of the Frisco property here for the purpose of making an estimate of it's value to submit to the Iron Mountain company, who are to buy a half interest in the tracks, buildings, etc., here and also for the purpose of building a joint passenger depot! The public at large hope that this arrangement may soon be con- summated and a new depot built.
 A prominent Frisco official. it is rumored, remarked that the companies will shortly commence sthe erection of a handsome brick union depot on the site of the one destroyed by fire last Janu- ary.
