The John B. Hood camp of Confed
crate Veterans, at a meeting Sunday
which was attended by over 100 mem
bers of the camp, not only refused to
endorse the candidacy of R. M. Wynne
for attorney general, but declared
they would vote to uphold the honor

The one who voted against the resolu-

The following is the resolution adopt

Campaign Committee, Fort Worth,
Texas:
'Sir-At a called meeting of the
John B. Hood camp, held in the city
of Austin on April IL for the purpose
of considering your letter requesting
the support of this camp for the can
didacy of Richard Wynne, the camp
voted that the following answer be
made:
"The John B. Hood Camp of Con-
federate Veterans is forbidden by its
bylaws from entering politics by the
endorsement of any Confederate, no
matter how worthy, yet in the candi-
dacy of Colonel Wynne for attorney
general we are confronted by moral
issue, and plain language is needed
to express the feeling of a Confed-
crate soldier who fought for his loved
Southland when asked to join Sen
ator ]. w. Bailey and H. Clay Pierce
in an unholy conspiracy to defeat
General Davidson, who has gained
their enmity through his devotion to
the interests of the people of Texas.
The Confederate soldier will vote for
the honor of his state.

The Grand Lodge Knights of PVT

The Grand Lodge Knights of Pyth-
las of Texas, which meets at Austin
Tuesday morning, April 9th, will be
possibly the most enthusiastic that
has ever been held in this grand do
main, and will witness a larger at
tendance than any previous conven.
ton. 1t is learned that the two Pyth-
ian lodges of Austin, Mt Bonnell No.
"a and Lake City No. 172, are making
preparations to entertain all who at
tend in a royal manner, and from the
program of receptions, ETC., it looks
as if they will make good the asser-
ton that they will produce the best
time yet had by visitors to the
Grand Lodge convention The Uni
form Rank is expected to take quite a
prominent part in the convention, and
it is safe to say that the rank will be
strongly represented. Delegates to
the supreme lodge which meets in
Boston, Mass, during August, will be
elected at this session of the Grand
Lodge, and also arrangements will
possibly be made to send several COM
panies of the Uniform Rank of Texas
to that convention, and it would be
well that all local members of the
Uniform Rank keep up with the drill
work, ETC., and if Palestine Company
No. should be called on to send
some of its members you might be
one of the lucky ones, and the trip
will be worth quite a lot to all who
attend. The railroad fare to the
Grand Lodge at Austin will be one
and one-fifth fares for the round trip.
