aen Reported to Be Against Dissolying
 School District No. 6

According to statement by Nathan Furlow of Ogden the News was mis- taken as to leading facts regarding the opposition to special bill No. SS, which dissolved school district No. 6 and adds it to Ashdown and Ogden districts. Mir. Furlow stated that he WAS secretary of school district MO- b, and while the other two members ot the board were negroes all warrants had to be issued by him. He said that with a light rate of taxation the dis trict was $2 ,000 ahead and maintained three cOlored and one white school. He said that his records would be before the governor in the hearing Saturday to disprove any charge of eXtraya- eanca He also denied that Judge Friedell was representing the Temple interests solely but that he represent ted the people of Ogden, who almost to man had signed the petition ask ing the veto He said that while un- der the bill the Ogden school would get a part of the new territory that there were reasons why they did not desire it, but preferred No. 6 to be continued as it now is.
 The News means to be fair ill it's re- ports. and we are glad to state as fully as possible the opposing side of the bill and controversy regarding it. Our limited familiarity with the matter had led us to believe that the bill was supported by both the Ashdown and Ogden people.

1900 MILES OF ROAD
Highway Department are Trying to
 Find Where They are At"

Little Rock, Oct. 10.-(SpeciaD- The State Highway Department is trying to get it's bearings since the adjournment of the extra session Most of the legislation had to do with roads, remedying defects in districts already formed and providing for new ones. There were about 300 acts passed, and ninety per cent of them related to roads. Figures are not yet available, but it is known that at least 1900 miles of new road have been provided for. This means many millions more of money spent for in- proved highways, but for the most part the people are demanding them, and are willing to pay for them.
 Still the criticisms offered by Speak CT Newton in the closing hours of the House session that local legislation has gone to seed" seems to have struck a responsive chord Nearly everybody agrees with him that there must be radical change in the system, and that road district legislation must be vest ed in county courts or other agen- cies that can handle it much more sat and at much less expense.

WHY WE THINK ASHDOWN WILL
 GROW.

Will Ashdown grow, and why? rms is a question, the first part of which IS already answered. It will grow. The WHY part might prove more inter- esting. What is the first big reason why you think it will grow? We will be glad to publish your ideas on the subject just to find out what other folks are thinking, and to find out the big reason for your confidence in the towns future. Don't be too long winded, but let's have it.
 If we were going to give just one we would say. because of the quality of her citizenship. You might ask il all towns didn't about average up ln that respect. As individuals, yes, as a whole they do not. Some of them pull apart. lack teamwork. Our people work in harmony. They stand unit edly for the best things. They believe in good schools and churches and have them. People like to live i'll town with these advantages Our people have vision of bigger and better things. and make it their business as whole to get those things. They are progressive and have the spirit that wins They are not afraid of their money They are not a wealthy peo- ple but who ever saw bunch more liberal? You couldn't cali Ashd0wn selfish town They go over the top on every good cause and seem to fatten on it They don't believe that they are going to be ruined by high taxes, but when they see the need of some big public improvement they figure out a way to put it through. Some towns rely solely on a fine farming country to make them grow X fine asset, but we have that too. but we have seen dead towns in the midst of great agri- cultural regions and we have seen cities that lacked this advantage Af- ter all to our mind it all heads back to the quality of the citizenship. That is why we are going to be a highway center with roads spangling in every direction. That is why we are rail- read center We are going to keep on growing because with the right kind of citizenship we are developing it to something better and drawing to us more of the same kind. You can de- pend upon them to aid in the natural and other advantages that are ours Nothing substantial can be built up- on any other kind of foundation. You couldn't build a town worth living in even if the surface of the earth was floating in oil, or it's hills underlaid with gold unless you had the right kind of folks to do it with.
