LET'S GO" FOR ROADS

Ask the farmer you meet on the streets of Brinkley why he doesn't come to town Oftener these days. and we'll venture that the majority of them will answer: "The roads are too bad, I had to walk" Ask seV- eral of them the first real mud dy day what part of ths cOun- try they live in, and you'll find that the greatest number of them are from along the best roads.
 It does look as though we would some day wake up to the fact that we cant get business if we don't have roads fit for customers to get to town. And it would also ap- pear that the farmers who still persist in living on poor roads would remember that they could pile up a little more llOIlGy II IldullllS ONCA CAC'0O bad roads didn't cost so much more than it dOeeS over good roads. Right now nine out ot every ten are declaring when they strike a bad stretch ot road that it shall have atten- tion as soon as the weather moderates and spring starts in. And just as many are too busy with something else swhen that time comes to give the road attention.
 We can't stay in a rut al- ways. If we expect to compete with other towns we've got to provide serviceable highways the kind that can be travelled by man, beast or motor 365 days in the year. The mail order house is going to get the business our merchants are en- titled to so long as the roads

therefore Pm justified in saying that what Ft. Smith needs worse tonight is a few first class funerals"
 That sounds pretty harsh but close fists and sappers of the vital community strength de- serve harsh measures to let them see what the community really suffers at their hands. If they could but read their own obituaries, written by a fair and fearless citizen, there would no doubt be a change up in their lives here on earth.

BRINkLEYS PRIMARY
 0TY ELECTION Ticket Selected for the April Election; Citizens Show Little Interest; Nobody
 Cares, Etc.

The Brinkley Democratic Primary on yesterday was about the tamest affair of the kind ever held in Brinkley.
 Interest was so slack that the committee was unable to fill out the ticket. No one would qualify as a candidate for City Treasurer and only half enough candidates quail fled for Aldermen in the var ious wards.
 A busted" City Treasury, with urgent needs of improve ment in streets, drainage, sew craze, etc, together with a general lack of public interest and disposition on the part of our business men to let George. do it" or else let it go without being done, caused 8 shortage in candidates for Mayor. Finally it was wished off on A. s. Bayne, who ran without opposition.
 Tho vote was as follows.
