HIGHWAY TOURISTS
 REACH FORT SMITH
MAKE FAST RUN OVER PROPOS- ED STATE ROAD FROM LITTLE ROCK.

Fort Smith, July 29.-W. B. Owen, secretary to the Arkansas Highway Commission; A. S. Kilgore, member of the commission; H. R. Carter, the state highway engineer, and John E.. Harris, commission clerk, arrived here last night from Little Rock on tour of the country which it is proposed to embrace in the proposed Little Rock
 Fort Smith highway district. The party left Little Rock Monday morn ing at o'clock and came here by way of Conway, Morrilton, Russellville and iClarksville The remainder of the trip was made pia Ozark, Mulberry, Alma and Van Buren.
 | Today the commissioners expect to visit Charleston, Paris and Dardanelle, which are south of the Arkansas river. The route traversed yesterday is north of the river, and the commission is in- clined to favor that route, but hopes to build a highway south of the Ar kansas from this city to Dardanelle and connect with the main road at Russellville. From present indications both projects will be undertaken at the same time.
 The present tour is merely to ascer- 1 tain the assessed valuation of the property to be included in the district and to permit an engineer to gain an idea of the topography of the country so that he can make competent esti- mate of the cost per mile of the under taking as soon as this is completed. Secretary Owen announced that the commission will begin holding series of educational meetings along the pro- posed highway to acquaint the people with the cost of the road, the method of procedure and the benefits to be de- rived from the improvement. MT. Owen said that the commission proba- bly, will ask the next legislature to adopt an entirely new act that will permit the building of this road and similar highways with less difficulty than would be encountered under the present statutes.
 Throughout the district through which the commission passed they found the taxpayers almost unanimous for the road, and many towns have entered into a good-natured contest to secure the thoroughfare. This is the chief reason that it probably will re- quire two roads, one north and one south of the Arkansas riper, on the western end of the highway.
