NJ Some writer in the Banner IN aje the dis
coyery that Fort Smith is mol nothing but Mil
itnry Post.' ort says that the papers Of this city
have never, for some unknown reason, mentioned
the size, individuality. prospects and thrIiIness
of Fort Smith. The reason why this has not been
done is Itca use ION cur part We have always
considered Vnn Burcn and For, Smith as one
when We mentioned the advantages Of Van Bu.
rrn We reck oned that Fort Smith, oniy four miles
and half off, wond also come in for her share.
That Van lur,n is the most eligible point by
FAR for the immense back country We shall never.
,he!rSs ma'n,ain. because it is the truth. Fort
Smith is a neighboring town. we are glad TO sec
it prosprrng. and are always ready to extend ,c
t the fralernaI hand.


The Fl. Smith people, says Ihis writer, have been
good customers of the Van Buren, Mer chants, anc
why Because they get good bargains and ex
celent goods-,he same may be said Of the For
Smith customers who buy there. If there is any
jealousy existing between the two paces--wo nov
er discovered il here--it is on the one srde only
and springs among the people nf Fort Smith with.
out any visible cause--there is no need for any
jealousy, and we can readily say for Van Buren,
tha, there is none on her pnrt, and there shouI'
be none on the part of Fort Smith, for the advan
tagcs that belong to each are individual and cal
not be taken away.
