SATURDAY, DEC. 3, 1910.

At the Trans.MlSslsslpp Con-
press held at San Antonio last
week, a resolution was passed
providing that no discussion be
permitted before the convention
on the subject of the Panama
exposition. 1t was agreed to
drop the matter there, but to fight
it out before the proper body.
The resolution was met with a
epirit of fairness and magnaminity
on the part of the delegation from
Louisiana and the resolutions were
adopted amid great cheers and
deafening applause. The dele
gates from Franklin at the con-
vention were Sheriff w. 7, Peter.
man, Clerk of Court w. H.
Kramer and Mr.. Paul Kramer.
The resolutions passed are:
Whereas, this congress is organic
ed and exists TO further the interests
of theentire Trans-Miss:ssippi coun-
try and not for the purpose Of advanc-
ing or attempting to advance the in
terest Of one locality against another:
and
"Wnereas, the proposed Worlds
Panama exposition will be held at
some point within state of the Trans
Mississippi country in any event; and,
Whereas, any preference as to
any particular place for the holding
of the same must Of necessity in
troduce strife between the representa-
tives of different sections of the
Trans Mississippi country and thus
introduce dissension in this congress
over subjects foreign to the purpose
OF its interest and existence ard thus
divide the different sections acvocat-
ing different points for holding the
same into two or more hostile COM
munities and thus seriously detract
from the usefulness Of the congress.
Therefore, be it resolved, that it
is not within the sphere of action of
this congress by resolution or other
wise, either to consider Or TO deter
mine the relative rights, claims or ad-
vantages of any particular place for
the holding of worlds Panama ex-
position to celebrate the opening of
the Panama canal and that while this
congress heartily approves the hold
ing Of such an exposition within this
country. we do not deem it wise to
pass upon the merits of any of the
cOntending cities as a place for hold
iup the same"
