The New North and South
 Railroad.

promoter of the north and south railroad from Monroe. La, to Pine Bluff, Ark, agreed with the people of this city that he would bring his road through the town; provided the citizens would give as q bonus to said road of something near $40,- GOO. This amount was sub scribed, and the payment there of guaranteed, by most of the subscribers; but now, some of those who guaranteed this pay
 ment want to get out of it, for the reason, as they contend, that some of those who sub scribed at that time are unable now to pay, have moved off or dead, thus making the guaran-
 tee more burdensome to them.
 This may all be true, and those who made the guarantee might have to get up q little more money than the amount they individually subscribed, but that is not the only question for them to consider. Can they af- ford to do without this road? Of course, they can, but how well? If the road runs through the county, which 1t will most certainly do, and miss the town,
 what will necessarily be the re- suit? It requires no seer or
 prophet to tell. Monticello will
 be doomed, and instead of being
 the leading town in southeast ern Arkansas, 1t will be a waste
 place in the cross wagon roads
 leading from Lacy to Pine Bluff and from Collins to Warren.
 Wherever the new railroad crosses the Iron Mountain road, i, either east or west, there will a
 new town spring up, and owing
 to competition of freight rates
 and increased facilities for trans
 portation will largely have the
 advantage of this town, and
 will. therefore, spring up most
 rapidly and soon be q competi-
 tor that will count. That MT.
 Parker will not bring his road
 through Monticello unless the
 bonus is kept up is conceded fact. He claims that 1t will cost
 $40, 900 more to construct the road through the hill country, iu which our town Is ocated !, than to run through the level land, either five miles east or west; and 1t is our understand ing that 1t is immaterial with him whether he takes Monticel To in his route or leaves 1t out. Hence the whole matter rests with the people of our town. They now have a contract with him that will force him to come through the town with his road. even, had he a disposition not to do so; but fl they voluntarily their rights under this they will never regret 1t but once, and that will be for all time to come.
 Mir. Parker now has the road graded from Monroe to Ham burg and Crossett and steel laid and cars running on about half tue way; and in a few weeks work is to begin between Ham burg and this place, and by Fall ] he work will be practically com oleted up this far. Whether hat work, which will be done, x i'll rebound to the betterment | 1r the ruin of Monticello, de bends upon it's own people.
 We learn that Mir. Parker is perfectly willing to return to he guarantors their agreement, and thus absolve them and him rom all obligations to each oth- r. A few of the guarantors want he agreement back, the majori. " do not, but just what the outcome will he we do. not in M We sill say however,
