SAYS LOGICAL
POINT WILL
TRIUMPH
Hon. Jos. B. Lancaster Re-
tulzfs From Washington,
D. c., Where He Went as
a Delegate From Coving-
ton, Full of Confidence
That New Orleans Will
Get the Exposition.

Hon. Jos. B. Lancaster, who went
on the Logical Point Special to
Washington, D. c., as delegate
from Covington, returned Monday.
Mr.. Lancaster says every delegate
worked hard and great deal was
accomplished. He believes that New
Orleans will get the exposition. He
pays a high compliment to Mr.. Bell,
of California, as an orator, and says
that he pleaded for California with
an eloquence that would have been
very effective had he not been handi-
capped by the weakness of San
Franciscos position. The committee
were composed of shrewd men who
could not be captured by mere ora
tory. They were open to conviction
only through the agency of facts and
figures, and these were presented in
full force and array by the New Or
leans speakers. Governor Sanders.
Mr.. Thompson, Archbishop Blenk
and others presented New Orleans
in her true light and so effectively
as to impress every one with the i'm
portance of her claim as the logical
point for successful exposition.
Mr.. Lancaster says that most i'm
portant point was that raised by
Archbishop Blenk as to the develop
ment of our trade relations with the
South American republics. That the
attempt of San Francisco to show
that unhealthful conditions prevailed
In New Orleans and that the heat
was extreme in summer time was
disproved by statistics and without
reference to earthquakes or the bu-
bonic plague.
Mr.. Lancaster says that the work
was mapped out for the delegates
and there was plenty to do besides
seeing the sights.
The citizens of Covington who de-
frayed the expenses of their delegate
may feel that the money was we'll
expended, and the interest and work
Of Mr.. Robert Aubert in behalf Of
the representation of Covington may
bring him pleasure in the knowledge
that our loyalty is appreciated.

plunge the country into Immediate war;
that the Mexican government has a
right TO assert It's authority, even
though in doing go ~ should cndanger
the lives of persons on this side or tho
international line. Both he and Mr.
Works, of California. declarGi that in
PREVENTION TO protect a few lives on
the border would probably mean the
sacrifice of a far greater number Of
lives of Americans in the interior Of
Mexico.
The United states could not we'll send
troops into Mexico without taking one
side or the other of the pending con :
nict, and Mr.. Bacon commended that in
any event the adoption of Mr.. Stones
resolution would be declaration os
war.
Taking up Mr.. Bacons contention.
Mr.. Stone drew the inference that fear
of war deters the American govern
Inent from proper steps for the protec-
ton of its own people.
He admitted there had been no In
ternational sacrifice OF American lives
as the result of the Mexican battles.
but declared that the killing OF Ameri-
can citizens has been equivalent TO de-
Nberate Intention.
Without action the Senate adjourned
until Thursday.
