Ed McHalfy, who was convicted

COW belonging to Ed Hutchinson Of
Morgan township, was last
week relieved by Gov. Hays of pav.
ing the fine of 500 and costs, on
condition that he pay $12O, the
amount of damages assessed against
him. The COW was valued at $40
The case came up in circuit court
here last August. According to the
law McHalfy, on conviction, was
liable for damages in a sum three
times the value of the cow and
the jury fixed his punishment at
a fine of 500 and costs and decreed
that he pay the owner of the COW
$120 as damages.
The governors proclamation ex-
pressly states that the fine need
not be paid provided McHalfy pays
the $12O judgment for damages.

THE PROBL EN- OF
OUR PUBLIC ROADS
Correspondent Draws Pretty
Picture OF Arkansas If We
Had Good Roads.

Editor Record:-Having lived in
Texas quite a number of years and
having seen that country when the
county roads were all worked I'M
der free labor, | want to say there
was not a good road in the state at
that time. That was back in 1896.
For instance: At that time the
four leading cities Of north and
northeast Texas, Dallas, Ft. Worth,
Mckinney and Texarkana, had not
over two miles each of good grad
ed, graveled road leading to the
country. There was but very little
improving going on in the city or
country. Everything was on the
drag. Things went on in this way
for a few years until business men
of Dallas got the good roads idea
into their heads and called a meet
ing to talk the question over. Fine
speeches we're made at this public
meeting, and a big interest was
aroused. Every business man, mer-
chant, lawyer, doctor and official,
donated their money and began
making a fine graded, graveled road
out of every road leading out of
Dallas to the surrounding farming
belt. The same steps were taken
at Fl. Worth, Mckinney and Tex
arkana, and in a few years all the
roads leading out of these cities
were completed from 10 to II miles
into the country.
Of course the farmers used these
roads and soon saw what a good
road meant to them. Soon every
land owner and tenant decided
there was nothing more important,
more helpful, or that would cause
a more general upbuilding of the
country than the construction OF
fine roads, so they held mass meet
ines. After a few of these meet
iDes almost all the people decided
that the best way to build and ex-
tend the good roads was to vote a
tax on themselves and then let out
the road building to bonded con-
tractors, which was done. These
land owners, the tenants, and their
sons got the work on the roads at
good wages, and received their tax
money back, and a good road, too.
Following the building of these
roads a general boom for Texas,
such as had not been known before,
began at once. Every land owner
began improving his property New
residences, barns, orchards, vine
yards and berry fields were seen on
every hand. Better hogs, cattle
and poultry were raised, Wet land
was drained with tiling, and today
| is producing fine alfalfa, instead OF
standing a lake of water. The
business mans business increased
year by year. The farmers began
farming on better methods, buying
and using better tools and machine
ry. Good roads put new life, inter-
est and contentment in every man,
If Texas can bring all this about
by building good roads pray why
not Arkansas We may not have
the farming lands of Texas, but we
have numerous other advantages
over that state, and with good roads
you can watch Arkansas outrank
Texas or any other state. With
good graded roads we would invite
railways, sawmills, stave and handle
factories, and Get them, and these
would give hundreds Of laborerS
work at fair WAGES, Orchards and
vineyards would spring up, canning
factories and rock crushers would
start up all calling for laborers, and
bringing better days for grand old
