In answer to the other ques'
ton, the Company offers to build
a road of standard guage, oil
sufficient rigidity for interchange
of cars in transit with steam
roads, to equip it with cars OF
equal bulk capacity with steam
roads and to connect all points
on the line with Joplin, Mo-, a
city of $4,000 inha bitants, max
ing good market for all produce
from Northwest Arkansas. The
city has four steam roads and is
connected with Kansas City,
Mo and eastern Kansas towns
with Interurban lines, thus Civ
ing people along this projected
line an. ever widening outlet for
their productions, putting them
in touch with the best markets in
the central states.
fhis offer translated into dol
lars and cents, increased popula-
ton and general improvement of
the country, is incalculable and
in this article no attempt will be
made to portray the benefits and
advantages accruing from the
building OF the road to your
farm or to your town. Let it be
noted that the road when built is
here for your convenience and of
future generations. 1t will be a
monument to the men who as
sist in its building, more endur-
ing than marble column or gram
ite shaft. The future has de-
mands on the present, only linz
tied by present ability. You may
succeed in keeping the road from
coming to your town. Benton
vile was successful in this way
some years ago and succeeded in
unloading a steam road on the
neighboring town of Rogers.
Later 1t scored another success
and pushed another road that
wanted to come to town of on
Gravette. 'Nerbum sat sapienti: :"
word is enough for a wise man.
In conclusions: Don't mistake
this company for a mendicant or
philanthropist. 1t is not ask
ing gifts nor distributing lag
niappe. 1t offers to build the
road to your town if you will
take certain amount of its
stock. 1t gives this for that:
quid pro quo. If you prefer the
Laissez faire principle, your
privilege will be respected on
earth as in heaven. Don't make
the mistake of thinking that
your objection to the road or
opinion of its merits, is inspira-
ton. Inspiration is infallible;
the logic of events may prove
your opinion or mine, exceeding
~ fallible. You will be asked to
subscribe for stock in this road;
all depends on the answer you
make. Assuming that the road
will be built, if you give it the
proper encouragement, yours is
the responsibility for failure or
success.

BENEFITS OF THE ROAD.
ibuted3

An lnterurban Electric Rail-
road Is coming into Arkansas
from the Northwest, starting
from Joplin, Mo-. and running in
a southerly direction through
Benton and Washington Counties.
The Arkansas Cooperative Con-
struction Company, incorporated
under the laws of Arkansas,
with headquarters at Benton
vile, has assumed the raising of
the money to build and equip the
road with an up-to-date equip
ment. The officials Of the Com
pany are citizens OF Bentonville
with records for business capacity
and integrity. The Company has
employed the Western Surety and
Adjustment Company as its fiscal
agents and proposes to raise
$500, 900 in cash, construction
material, franchises and right Of
way, to be used as basis CT
credit on which to raise the bal
ance OF money necessary to get
the road ready for operating. 1t
is proposed to build about loo
miles of road aud 1t IS thought
that it will take eighteen months
or two wears to finish the work.
The Western Surety Company
as fiscal agent is to assist in
raising the 800, 900 and through
its business connections sell bonds
for sufficient money to complete
the road, receiving Tor its ser
vices after the road Is ready for
operating, S10o, 900 worth of
stock in the road at par value.
The Cooperative Company
will receive and disburse all
money raised, audit all accounts
and own and control the road
when completed. The bonds is
sued BY the Construction Com
pany will be secured by the ply
seal valuation OF the road, the
stock being collateral thereto.
The Construction Company has
no salaried officers and pays no
salary to any member of the
Surety Company. A fund has
been set aside to pay the actual
expense Incidental to securing
the ri ght OF way, subscription to
stock, making surveys and other
necessary work. Estimate of the
whole expense OF completing the
road is on the basis of $4,000
per mile and the mileage at pres
ent contemplated is loo miles,
making total of 81 100000. 1t
will be seen by any one compre-
hending the magnitude OF this
enterprise and the plan upon
which it Is to be carried e COM
pletiou, that the interest OF both
the Construction and Surety
Companies is best served by
building, equipping and operat-
ing the road, that safeguards
against loss have been carefully
considered in the method of pro-
cedure devised by both compan-
les
The question now arises, what
does the road offer the people
along the route and what IS the
relation of the stakeholder to the
Construction Company. Answer
ing the last question first, the
Company being cooperative. the

a vote in all its affairs, IS re-

Carlos Mayes as clerks. AL
though considerable interest was
manifested in the election it was
quiet in comparison to former
elections held in Springdale.
Mr.. Joyce. the newly elected
mayor, is a man who stands high
IN the estimation of the people of
Springdale, and The News be-
lieves he will make a good mayor
and do everything possible to adj
vance the interests Of the town.

can ticket, and the other officials
all being Democrats. The News
does not anticipate that there
will be the least friction, but on
the contrary all will work to-
gether tremendously.
Mr.. Lane, the only Democratic
nominee to suffer defeat, has
served as mayor for a number of
terms, and has devoted himself
unselfishly to the work OF the
town. He has made SpringdaTe
one of the best mayors the towH
has ever lad, fact which we
believe is conceded by all.
