WHICH IS BEST.

Without wanting to be put in the attitude of discouraging the idea of another western outlet for Hot Springs, via Womble to Mena, and while we will lend what help we can to the encouragement of such plan. still we believe that good highway through the same section would be more practical to all interests in- volved.
 It would cost many fortunes to build railroad through those ozark foothills. Half the sum, or one-third the sum, would build a macadam highway from Hot Springs to the western state line, and the highway would serve all interests very well for few years.
 1t will be remembered that there is in course of actual construction a highway extending from the Mime sota border to the Louisiana gulf line, that taps the west border of our state in general range from Kan sas City to Shreveport.
 A connection with that highway would be most valuable so Hot Springs.
 And in building such connection we would not have to make the ex- pensive grades that railroad has to make. The new country would be almost as well served by really good highway as by railroad. Mail and express facilities would be added to the intervening country.
 The progress the automobile is making, and the manner in which it is being adapted to all usages where there is highway. makes for cer- tainty that the country on a highway is not going to suffer at all from lack of railroad connection.
