 Forrest City, Ak
 Dear Sir:-John F. Rhodes. our County Judge, asked me to reply to a letter received from you some lime ago relative to fixing up the old Military Road, so as to have highway from Forrest City to Memphis. asked me to assure you that our county would put the road in trst-class condi- tion to the county line and maintain it, if your county would take it up from there 10 Forrest City. 1 have never been ever the road ou side of this county, but my understanding is that the dump is still well marked, and that about all that would be ne- cessary would be to remove the timber l would be very glad to see this road opened up. As matter of flct it is already fine highway to about six miles of our west county line This would be all the work we would have to do to put l. in fine condition to our county line. l hope you will succeed in getting your county to act. You may rest assured that we vii do our part. Very truly,

WHO'S AFRAID

II tie Republican representatives IN
CONGRESS- are DESTROYS OF convincing
the country that they actually want
thorough investigation OF the BAL
lInger- Pinchot controversy they are
proceeding In a queer way to do IL.
What was the object OF the majority
in rejecting Mr.. Rainey as a member
of the investigation committee AFTER
that gentleman had been chosen by
the Democratic caucus as one or the
two Democrats to serve? Reports
frcm Washington say that President
Taft objected to Mr.. Rainey. and as
nobody has sugg6 sted another reason
for the majority's action, II must he
that the Presidents influence was
used and felt.
Il may be that Representative
Lloyd. the Democrat chosen in the Re-
publican caucus to take the place on
the committee for which Mr.. Rainey
was named. no doubt Will do his DUTY
His unwillineness 10 act under the
circumstances and the rendering OF
his resignation would seem to Indicate
that he h, n Democrat good and true
But the country does not know Mr..
Lloyd as It does Mr. Rainey. MT
Rainey was chosen fer this duty De-
cause his associates regard him rs
peculiarly well fitted TO aid in probing
this scandal and bringing the real
truth from beneath the mass OF
charges and counter charges involved
in this AFFAIR. Hence the Democrats
feel aggt!eved. and good citizens gen.
elally. regardless of party afiiliation'
have cause for feeling alarmed, when
the majority refuses 70 allow MI.
Rainey &c serve.
President Taft has announced to the
country in unmistakable terms that ne
wants this controversy probed TO the
bottom: he has said or more tnan
one occasion that he wants the truth
about everybody and everything in
volved brought out for the public gaze.
These statements mist have been re-
assuring to gocd Republicans who felt
inclined TO believe Golfers white
washing prediction. But what ire
these people TO think now?
