STAR CITY GETS
COTTON BELT LINE
Gould Southwestern To Connect With
Main Line Over Logging Road
At F0rdyce. =

1t is reported here that the New
house Mill and Lumber Company Is
planning to run it's railroad, known
as the Gould Southwestern from
Star City, Lincoln County, to For
dyce, in Dallas county, the latter
named place being a station on the
Cotton Belt railroad south of here.
The distance which it is said the new
part of the line will traverse is about
lrty miles, and is considered
rather rich part of this section
The Gould Southwestern, as this
logging road of the Newhouse Mill
& Lumber Company is known
now operates between Gould, Ark,
and Star City, the county seat of Lin
coin county This is the only rail-
road reaching Star City and hence is
a very valuable one. 1t connects
with the Iron Mountain at Gould.
Regular passenger trains are not OPP
Grated over the Gould Southwestern,
but the trains carry passengers, as
it is the only means of entering the
Lincoln county metropolis via rail.
1t is stated that the merchants
and business men of Star City are
highly elated over the prospects OF
Cotton Belt connection. The report
says that surveyors are now working
on the proposed new route.
