A Get Together Highway Meeting
Continued from first page.


said he was satisfied ninety-e eight
per cent of the citizens of Grant
parish favored the north side Of
Red river for the highway, and
were bitterly opposed to its
crossing a toll bridge at Boyce
and people being forced to trav-
Ell an unnecessary seven or eight
miles to get to Alexandria. He
called attention to the fact that
Mr.. Clarkson had expressed a
desire to have an expression
from the seven Jefferson High
way directors of Grant parish in
this matter, and he moved that
they be requested to go to Alex
andria on Saturday, Dec. 9, at 3
lp. m.,. and lay the case before
him.
The motion was seconded and
carried unanimously, two or
three speakers strongly urging
its Importance, and asking that
the directors go to Alexandria in
a body, with as many represent
ative citizens as would go there
in order to meet Mr.. Clarkson
on his arrival at the Bentley
Hotel at three o'clock next Sat-
urday afternoon.
Attorney J. A. Williams was
! called on for speech, and said
F, he had been trying for the past
week to figure out one single
business reason that Boyce could
give the travelling public to
journey several miles out of their
way in order to pass through
Bayce. He could give many rea-
sons why they should not, but
he was sure they had but one
reason, and that was to exploit
the public for their own selfish
benefit. He enumerated several
strong reasons against the Boyce
route, and was roundly applaud
ed for his telling points.
Attorney j. B. Roberts was
called on for an expression of
his views. He said he was heart
lily in favor of all that had been
said, but thought it was much
more important to have the
many points, that had been

and DR.. Litton resigned their
seats to H. G. Goodwin and AS
SCISSOR J. M. Straughan from
that point to Colfax.
The official score from the Alex
>andria city hall to the parish line
was 1917 miles. The score to
Hudson creek was exactly IL
miles. The score of the entire
distance from Alexandria city
hall to the Colfax court house
was exactly q miles. This dis
lance can be decreased at least
two miles by grading hills and
hollows and Strengthening sew
eral crooks in the road, making
the distance between C0lfaX and
Alexandria by way of Bagdad
and Pineville 25 miles.
Arriving at Colfax at 3:15 p.
m. the court room was quickly
occupied by a large and enthu-
siastic gathering of Jefferson
Highway boosters numbering
fully one hundred fifty people.
Capt. Teal called the house to
order and introduced Mr.. Clark
son, who delivered an interesting
address of 25 minutes. At the
close of his address a general dis
cussion by persons in the audi
ence followed for Is minutes.
Mr.. Clarkson explained the
methods of the Jefferson High
way Association in raising finan-
ces by subscriptions to the Jeffer-
son Highway Declaration, pub
,lished at Des Moines, Iowa, and
by membership fees in the asso-
citation. The membership pledges
are SIS, $40. $25, $50, 500, 5000,
$500 and $1,000. The SIS pledge
is to be paid in cash, the $40 fee
half cash and balance in one
year, and the other pledges also
have deferred payments, the one
for $1,000 extending over four
years. Mr.. S. Wolstencroft, the
publicity agent, left a set of
these blanks with the Editor of
the, Chronicle, and parties de,
string to subscribe are requested
to cali for them. One dollar will

brought out embodied in a brief
and formally presented in our
behalf. He disclaimed any de-
sire or intention of soliciting en-
ployment in this line, as he was
busily engaged with court mat
tiers, but offered the suggestion
as an important procedure.
Mr.. Roberts was informed that
this matter had already been
discussed. and it had been de-
cided to solicit the services of
himself and Mr.. Williams to
represent Grant parish in the
matter.
On motion of w. A. Brownlee,
seconded by j. w. Duncan it
was unanimously resolved that J.
B. Roberts and j. A. Williams
be requested to prepare a brief
and present it to Mr.. Clarkson in
New Orleans, Monday, Dec. Is,
and that their expenses would be
paid.
On motion it was resolved
that the citizens of Grant parish
along the Jefferson Highway are
urged to send as many automo-
biles to Pineville as possible on
Monday, Dec. II, in order to
take part in the automobile pa
rade at three o'clock in the af-
ternoon, as it is very desirable to
give a concrete exhibition of oul
enthusiasm and interest in the
highway.
The meeting then stood ac-
iourned.

there are no substitutes being used.
