AshdOwn May Get the Proposed Jeff. ersOn Highway Says Worker.
 From Canada tO the Gull.

Unless Arkansas people are sely active. the state will probably lcse the JeSerson Highway, tu be built from Winnipeg, Can. to New Or leans. Arthur Kepner, president of the State bank at Decatur, and one of the Afkansans interested in the road, said Kepner spent yesterday in conference with local men in Ashdown He was at Texarkana Monday and conferred with the board of trade there, and will be at DeQueen today and from there to Mena
 At the recent New Orleans conven- tion of the Jefferscn H ghway Associa- tion Arkansas had only enc delegate and he was there only by chaice" is trying to secure the highway route, had 43 delegates. Missouri hopes to have the highway come through the state, and has asked Arkansas 70 join with her against Kansas and Okiaho- ma It is up to Arkansas to wake up.
 "The Jefferson Highway will be onc of the greatest roads in the country. and Arkansas should not miss an op- portunity ta bring the route through the Ozarks from Jopl n; Mo-, on to Ft. Smith and from there to Shreveport. La It is estimated that this route would be 62 miles shorter than the proposed route through Oklaaoma, and we can can secure it if we work. There will be a meeting Of these in- terested in securing the read in Fort Smith carly in February and we hope to have a large delegation there
 Arkansas people have not awak- ened to the importance of this project. The people along the Missouri route subscr bed S300,00O towards the road in short time. Arkansas has dcne very little. The road is being built by popular subscr ptions. Several states probably VII appropriate to help build it. Accodding to Mr Kepner Ashdown has a good chance fer the road, with her a'ready graded and gravel read , to Ogden, and only would have tc buit tne north end of the road.
