'In the name Of the council of the

your telegram of Dec. l, in which you
agree to act as mediator between the
Armenians and the Turkish National
lists, and add that you will nominate
a representative for this purpose.
"The council is deeply rejoiced at
and grateful for your decision. The
council asked me to inform you that
the Spanish government declares it
self ready to participate in any action
of a moral and diplomatic character
in support of Armenia, and that the
Brazilian government announces that
1t is ready to take part, alone or with
other powers, in putting an end to the
present situation in Armenia.
The council is, therefore, request
ing these two governments to COM
municate directly with you as to how
cooperation in this work can best be
arranged. Negotiations can be open
ed Immediately with the Armenian
government at Erivan.
''As regards the Kemalists (Turk-
ish Nationalists) the council is taking
steps to find out the most effective
method of getting in touch with them
and will inform you further on this
point as soon as possible"
Dispatch of a solemn message of
gratitude to President Wilson for the

STEPS TO PROTECT
RESOURCES URGED
CONTROL OF GRAVEL AND ROCK
DEPOSITS PROBLEM FOR
CONVENTION.
SHOULD CONSERVE WEALTH
Question Of Public Ownership Of craV-
81 Deposits Is Being Aatated in
Several Parishes at This
Time.

Lafayette. - Steps should be taken
by the approaching Constitutional
Convention to protect the mineral re-
sources and the gravel and rock de-
posts Of the state so as to prevent
Louisiana from being denuded of her
vast natural wealth, in the opinion Of
the State Senator J. r. D0mengeaux
of Lafayette.
louisiana" Senator DomengeauX
said, has been blessed by many Of
natures most valuable gifts, but here
tofore they have not been used or de-
veloped to the best advantage of the
state. Within a few years our great
timber forests will be denuded, I'M
less steps are taken to check the wan
ton waste. 1t will not be long before
some of our mineral resources, such
as oil, as, ETC., will be exhausted un-
less they are properly conserved.
ways and means should be devils
ed by the Constitutional Convention
to not only conserve this natural
wealth, but to provide methods
whereby theistate can get more reve'
nue. out Of it. These are gifts to the
people and the state is entitled to
even a larger proportion OF revenue
than it is getting through the efforts
of Governor Parker. l think the state
should get per cent of the sales
value of these products, instead of 2
per cent.
1.-The Constitutional Convention
should also devise way to enable the
state to control our gravel anu rock
deposits. These materials are needed
in the construction mad maintenance
of public roads and highways. Louis
Jana must have a system of modern
roads that will penetrate every sec
ton. Our state cannot grow and pros
per as 1t should without highways.
I'VE have vast deposits OF rock and
gravel in many of our parishes, es-
pecially in the northern and central
section Of the state and in Florida
parishes. Some of these deposits
have already been gobbled up by
large syndicates and the syndicates
are reaching out for more.
The question Of public ownership
of gravel deposits is being agitated in
several parishes, but up to this time
Ouachita is the only parish that is
known to have taken STEPS to protect
itself in obtaining possession Of road
building material Ouachita parish
has purchased gravel deposit near
Monroe and is using the material in
building highways.

Man Who Killed Jailer Is Slain at
Winona. Miss.


Winona, Miss.-The quick wit and
prompt action Of an 1S-year-old girl
resulted in the capture Of the three
criminals who murdered G. T. Reeves
jailer at Memphis, and afterward made
their escape.
C. A. Hamilton, the man who killed
the Memphis jaiJer, was killed. by
Sheriff R. n. Smith when he show"d
resistance. Z. 3. Kelly and a. F.
Shaw, his copfeItrates, were placed
in the Montgomery county jail await
ing the arrival Of officers from Men,
phis.
The thirst of the three dosperadoes
was the direct cause of their capture.
A southbound freight train pulled ii
at the Winona station shortly before
10 O'Clock in the morning. Hamilton,
Kelly and Saw, who were hiding in a
coal car, went to the home of Mr.. II.
7. Dodd, a short distance away, and
asked for a drink of water.
Miss Mary Dodd, an 1S-year.old girl
was in the house alone. She complied
with the request of the three men,
and at the same time recognized them
as the criminals wanted in Memphis
their pictures having appeared in the
newspapers.
After the three men left the house
Miss Dodd went to the telephone and
called up the sheriff's office. She told
Sheriff Smith that she was certain
her visitors were the three men want.
ed in Memphis, and that they had re-
turned to the freight train, which was
still standing on the siding.
Sheriff Smith called Marshal Joe
Glenn and they started on the man

found in the coal car, and ordered to
throw up their hands. They obeyed
but Hamilton was in an ugly mood,
and denied that he was the person
wanted. He made a motion as though
to reach for his gun, and Sheriff
Smith took no chances, but opened
fire. Hamilton fell to the ground, and
at the same time pulled his gun, at
tempting to shoot the sheriff, when he
was again shot by Marshal Glenn.
