Southwest Texas Triumphant.
Col. II. 3. Andrews, of the South
west Texas immigration association,
yesterday afternoon received a tele-
gram from the board of managers OF
the exposition at Kansas City, Mo-,
stating that the southwest Texas ex-
hibit (which was made so attractive
by the untiring eXertions of Col. John
A. Kerr, at his own expense,) had
been awarded the first prize
of states over the exhibits
of Nebraska, Kansas, Missouri,
and other states competing. This is
quite feather in our cap. All south
west Texas is under the greatest obi
cations to Col. Kerr, who at his per-
sonal expense arranged one of the
most attractive exhibits ever seen at
any exposition, and which the press
of the entire country, through its rep
resentatives at Kansas City spoke of
in unmeasured praise. The prize
money of $500 should be divided be-
tween southwest Texas and Col. Kerr
to reimburse him for his outlay.
