CONWAY'S URGENT NEED.


 It will be admitted by any person who has been in Conway during the past few months that the city's most urgent need is better streets. Their present condition, thus early in the winter, is so indescribably bad that 1t is difficult to imagine into what condition they will get when a few deep freezes and subsequent thaws still further soften them.
 The Log Cabin Democrat believes that the time has come when Conway must set about building some perma- nent streets. A step in this direction has already been taken by the forma tion of paving district for the prin- cipal business section of the city. But this is only a beginning. Traffic along the main-traveled residences, especially those leading into the prin- cipal county roads, has grown to such an extent that the old dirt roads will no longer suffice. Proper grading, draining and dragging would help considerably, but the streets would always be nothing but dirt-stif1ing with dust in dry weather and sticky with mud in wet weather.
 Fifteen or twenty miles of these streets ought to be surfaced with macadam-the cheapest form of per manent highway. The city has not sufficient funds to do all this at once and it ought to be done within the next year.
 The improvement district plan and the front foot assessment plan are means which might be adopted. With either plan substantial aid could be given from the city's portion of the road tax and the city general rev. enue
 This paper expects to have good deal to say about this matter within the next few months, and our col umns are open to any citizen who may wish to present his views on the subject to the people.
