The Local Newspaper.

Among tho first in any commu-
nifty to advocate the building of
good rords are tho merchants of
tho town around which tho CON-
munity centers. The explanation
is simple. The merchant regards
a good country road leading to his
store as business asset that pays
immense dividends on every dollar
of road tax invested; it makes it
easy for the buying public to get
to his place of business. In the
Same way and largely for the same
reason the majority of tho busl-
ness man will bs found lined up
for every other progressive move

The latest find, and easily the
must important, of the small town
merchant in the way of a general
business asset is his local news.

lars invested in it in advertising

THE SHOW DOWN.

A community may go on for
years without any organization;
without any boosting to help it;
without any cooperation; every
man pulling for himself-each one

cream away to other places; but
sooner or later tho crisis is sure
to come.

MOVEMENT FOR
 WESTERN OUTLET
MANY CITIZENS PLEDGED TO RE. NEW SUBSCRIPTIONS UNDER
 NEW CONDITIONS.
Building Is to Be Begun From This City in 60 Days and Extend to
 Percy Connection in 8 Months.

After Captain c. II. Henderson, vice president of the Memphis, Dal- las and Gulf railroad, had explained the vicissitudes under which the rail road had labored and had been un- able to meet the conditions necessary to avail itself of the $60,000 subscrip- tion formerly made for the road here, a number of citizens in a meeting held at the Bijou Rink last night re- newed their subscriptions, and start ed anew the bonus which is to be given under new conditions.
 The railroad is to begin building within 50 days this time, is to start the work from Hot Springs, and to build to Percy, where a road now op- crates, within eight months. More over, the railroad is to operate regu. lar trains before any of tine bonus is to be paid.
 c. N. Rix served as chairman of the meeting, and renewed his pledge of $2,000. Among the speakers who were enthusiastic over the proposi tion were w. w. Waters, Hamp Will Hams, Col. E. w. Rector, Hon. w. H Martin, Dr. c. T. brennan, NJ. A. Eisele, N. M. Moody, w G. Maurice and Secretary George R. Bedding, who concluded his remarks with present. ing the former notes for renewal.

While this is somewhat greater than the record established by the army aviators In taeir flight to San Antonio last Fri day, when 2S0 miles were covered in three hours and II minutes, this is a record in view of the fact that the re- turn flight was made against a wind that blew across the path of the ma chine at slighhtly more than 20 miles an hour

Henderson had presented the trials the road had encountered and had finally overcome, and the convincing assurity that now the rail road was in a position to begin ac- tual construction.
 The railroad but recently secured proper recognition from the Inter state Commerce Commission, giving it recognition as other railroads, in stead of being placed in the ranks of a tap" or lumber line. This com pany already owns two railroad lines, but will have to build some connec- tions in order to make the road com plete.

NO ACTION IN THE
 SCHUMANN HANGING
PAPERS IN CASE ARE NOT IN THE OFFICE OF ACTING COVER
 NOR FuTRELL.
Matter Will Be Taken Up With Him. However, and Date of Execution
 Win Be Announced Forthwith.

There are no papers in the office of Acting Governor Futrel in refer ence to the case of Clarence A. SchumaIah, who was convicted of murder in the first degree and sen fenced to be hung for the killing of his wife in tais city last June.
 After Schumann had been convict ed here in the circuit court, and the sentence imposed by Judge Catham for date early in February, the case was taken to the supreme court by Attorney w. G. Bouic, and after some delay there it was affirmed.
 The time taken up by the case in the supreme court caused the date of execution as fixed by Judge Gotham to lapse, and following the affirma- tion of the case in the supreme court, it becomes the duty of the governor to set the date of execution.
 The r days had long since elapsed when further action could be taken in the higher courts, and then there was delay because there was a con tention as to Who was governor, as between Acting Governor Oldham and Acting Governor Futrell.
 Yesterday Circuit Judge Cothams attention was called to the matter that news of the date of the execution was about due, or long overdue, and a conference was then held with the secretary to Governor Futrell, who said there were no papers in the gov ernor's office in connection with the case.
 Judge Cataam will see that the sit uation is properly placed before Act ing Governor Futrell, and it is not doubted but that at date not far distant the acting governor will set the time when. Schumann will hang, of course giving the usual SO days after the time the execution is set for and when it shall be carried out.
 There were some papers in connec- ton with the case in the office of tae governor before Governor Futrell came in, but they seem to have been taken by Mrs. Schumann, mother of the condemned man, back to the SUI preme court clerks office, and 1t is probable that all the documents will be found there.

BOSTON RED SOX BREAK CAMP TODAY
STALL AND HIS WARRIORS WILL LEAVE HOT SPRINGS FCR
 THE NORTH TODAY.

The Red Sox will break camp and depart for Champaign, H., on the 1 o'clock train. Manager Stahl is a graduate of the Illini and is taking his worlds champions to his old col lege town at the request of Athletic Director George Huff, the man who brought him out as baseball player.
 With Scott turned over to St. Paul, Stahl has but three additions to his squad, They are Hahold Janvrin, that very speedy and very good young infielder; Dutch Leonard, tae most promising young Soutapaw in the game, and Brownie Foster, a little right-hander, secured from Houston. They stick for the ride east, and, where Janvrin is bound to stick for the summer and many summers to come, Leonard is also almost bound to stay, while the chances are Eos ter is on the team for all times.
 Both Stahl and McAleer are well satisfied with the condition of their squad. They have long been firm champions for the Spa and our sparkling little town should glory in having two such famous baseball men roofing for it. The two Boston bosses are not complaining over the finan- cial failure of the series with the Pi- rates. Tae games deserved better patronage than they received, but Stahl and McAleer are not kicking. They are sweet on the condition of their players and well satisfied with the results of their 1913 training trip.
