 All day long Saturday the con- test waged fast and furious. The advocates of the road measure had taken no steps at organization, in fact their plan was simply to put it up to the people and abide by their cool and deliberate conclusions until a few days before the election when it was discovered that some of the opponents of the plan had gone among the people, holding up that frightful "bogy'' EXCESSIVE TAXATION" for the purpose of frightening them into voting against the measure. Then it was that the advocates of the measure sought to re- move the prejudice and show the advantage of voting for the bill. But the ''pizen" had already got in it's work for some

ROAD ELECTION BEATS FEM ALL
The First Time in History of County Women Vote and Make Things Lively. People Come Many
 Hundreds of Miles to Vote for Roads

Brinkley has witnessed many an exciting election but the eli max of all came on Saturday last.
 It was the date for the vote on Road Improvement District No. l, reaching into parts of the eight northern townships of Monroe county.
 In the city of Brinkley the vote was nearly two to one FOR improvements while in the Brinkley township box it was strongly against. In Cypress Ridge, Cache and Keevil town ships the vote was in favor of the improvements. In Richland no one appeared to vote. In Eden, Dickson and Greenfield a heavy majority was returned against the improvement. On the face of unofficial returns, for improvements has lost in the district affected.
 Judge Trice will canvass the returns on April 17th.

opponents of the measure had gone among the smaller property owners, both white and black, and pictured to them the awful ness of having their property actually taken away from them" by that terrible, unjust, unholy road tax. that was going to ruin the country.
 How THE PEOPLE OF BRINKLEY
 VOTED
 The novelty and strangeness of the property owners of the city of Brinkley voting by big majority to tax their property of over $500, 000.00 assessed valua- tion, in order to build the roads for the benefit of the farmers living on the farms, is appearant in the vote of the city as shown below:
 FIRST WARD
 For Improvements. ....... .63 Against :" ......... .33
 SECOND WARD For Improvements .... .....32 Against ........... ...6
 THIRD WARD
 For Improvements. ..... 40 Against .......... .36 TOTAL CITY OF BRINKLEY VOTE
 THREE WARDS For Improvements. .......1 1855 Against ........75
 Or within a bare few votes of a two to one majority FOR roads by city of Brinkley
 The township box in Brinkley showed 123 against and 54 for improvements.
 When it is remembered that no part of the road funds that were being voted on could be spent within the borders of the City of Brinkley, but altogether on the country roads it is indeed most gratifying to the progress sive people of Brinkley who have been for years so tireless in their efforts for this system of real roads. that Brinkley property owners, by a nearly two to one majority, voted to be taxed for improvement with no hope of a cent of the tax being spent with in the incorporate limits of the City of Brinkley.
The Brinkley argus., 1916-04-07

many good women of the city in their efforts to vote tax on the icty property in order to exclu- sivley build country roads, surely there would be a warm feeling of appreciation and sympathy.

from England and so it will be worth
while to freshen the memory with a
celebration once a year.
If the country had progressed as
George Washington planned-as you
can well see by reading the cOnstitU-
tion-it would be a different United
States today. His ideas of freedom
for everybody has resulted in a kind
of freedom for a few hundred million
aires to do as they please for wealth
to themselves. If the grand, noble
George Washington could arise and
be with us for a few days and see
American politics of today he would
be greatly disappointed.

as if it was a barrier for betterment
of the nasty conditions Of the world
