Women Drag the Roads.

Jacksonville, No., May 3d.
The men Of the community, be-
ing busy in the fields. Mrs. Ed
gar Brock and Mrs. Mary For
rest today dragged the roads
from their homes, north of
town, to the Christian church,
in Jacksonville, Mo. The women
started to town, but the rough
roads were not to their liking
and when they met near where
a road drag lay, they abandoned
their buggies, rugged up a dou-
BILE harness for their horses,
hitched on to the drag and came
to town. The return trip was
made in the same way and
proved so beneficial that several
more round trips were made.
Other women in the community
are planning to follow their ex-

Newport daily independent., 1913-05-26

provisions and the owners of our
short lines of railway and boat
companies are much aroused
over the injustice such an act
would work upon them.
The purpose of the bill is no
doubt good, being to divorce in
dustry from transportation and
was aimed at the anthracite
coal roads of Pennsylvania,
where the owners of the mines
and the railroads were given an
advantage that prove ruinous to
the independent mine owners.
There is no demand for such
legislation in the great timber
sections of the South and West.
The lumber road and the steam
boa line are projected into our
forests by the owners of the
timber, because the trunk lines
of railway will not build spurs.
In the past, it was the custom
of the owners of the timber to
bring the logs to the mill by
means of ox-carts, or primitive
tram road construction. How
ever, as more modern methods
were evolved, substantial rail-
roads were built and this to the
end that as the timber would be
cleared, the railroad was ready
at hand for the purpose of ac-
commodating farm settlement,
and other industrial develop
ment. In this way, great Sec
lions of Louisiana, Arkansas,
Mississippi and other Southern
and Western states, have been
developed.
Steamboat lines were put into
service and maintained by these
same companies serving the Sec
lions through which they oper-
ated as common carriers and
thus promoting the develop
ment Of our new country.
The Stanley bill will prevent
the lumber company boat lines
and railroads from handling
freight for others or passengers
and these lines could then only
be used for the hauling of the
products of their owners and we
believe that the enactment of
such a law will prove a barrier
in the development of our Sec
ton.

Prof Crawford, his family,
and a number of young women
teachers and others, went to
Tucker Springs today for a
weeks outing. This afternoon
they went bathing in the river.
Miss Crawford got beyond her
depth and her father went to
her rescue. Their struggles
sent them into deeper water,
and MISS Mead and Van Land
ingham went to their assistance.
The four foundered about until
they got beyond their depth,
when suddenly all sank out of
sight.
All of the bodies have been
recovered, a searching party
