The convention made am early start this morning. "Here," said a .prominent dele gate, "is where 'the hot-air and rag chewing ceases and business begins." This Inelegant but expressive manner of alluding to the deliberations of such an august body aa the " Trans-Mlsslssippl Congress was true to the extent that business began, but what the . gamin-fla vored parlance of the street terms rag- chewing did not altogether cease; In fact, more ginger was Infused Into the day's proceedings than .has been in evidence at" any previous session this week. Svrlneford'a Appeal for Alnxka. The Alaska discussion was taken up where It ended yesterday. Ex-X3overnor Swirieford, who could not talk within the .time limit yesterday, was gjven more tlmo today, and. as- he had been nursing his wrath to keep It warm, the Commer cial Congress was treated to some caus tic remarks. He declared that the posi tion of the residents of, Alaska was more Intolerable than that of the American colonies before they gained their Inde pendence from Great Britain, and that there was not a single complaint enum erated In the Declaration of Independ ence that did not fit the case of Alaska. He held the floor for over an hour, and made an eloquent and forcible appeal for territorial government, recIUng at length the woes and Indignities now suffered through lack ot direct rcpresentaUOn or government by the people. Ex-Governor Swlneford was followed by Volney T. Hoggatt. of Valdez, who wound up a three-minute talk wlUi the statement that unless Alaska was given territorial government "so we can make our own laws, they will continue to be made by the clerks in the Land Office or obscure qulllpushers in other branches of the Federal service." At the conclusion of the Alaska, dls cusslph Chairman Craig, of resolution committee, came before the meeting with the first "grist of resoluUons that had emerged from the committee-room, where the grinding and winnowing process has been steadily at work 'for the past three or four days.

The reading of these resolutions was in' tcrrupted by frequent applause, but i motion to adopt them In a lump Inter rupted the pleasant cruise over a Summer pea, and breakers appeared In the form of the Oklahoma statehood and Philip pine trade resolutions. A dozen men were on their feet as soon as the first motion had been voted down. The man from Indian Territory Insisted that It would be over two years before his com monwealth would be ready for statehood. and he objected to having her married to Oklahoma without her consent Just be cause Oklahoma wanted her.

It reads as follows: "That a trade policy stimulating the production of sugar and tobacco in those islands would redound to the interests of exploiters in the Philippines, and would tend to dwarf the individual development ot the Philippine people, and could but Injure the 'home producers ot those prod ucts, one of which constitutes an Impor tant Trans-Mississippi Industry ot great future possibilities."

It was out of order, as it was a political quesUon, inasmuch as it was on a tariff .matter. The chair recognized the point only so far as the third paragraph was concerned. Without this paragraph. one resolution was like the rifle that needed a new lock, stock and barrel, and an appeal was taken from the decision of the chair, and a grand pow-wow resulted. which ended in the chair being sustained by a safe majority. Flushed with success. Mr. Wootcn then made a moUon to table the entire resolu tlon, and after more wrangling, this was done. Lewis, with a triumphant grin, started for town, but a few minutes later, while Brigadier-General Alfred, C. S. A., was temporarily enjoying the glory of being chairman, the matter was reopened. General Alfred still wears a gray -unI- form; not because he does not know the war Is over, but because he believes every man should do as ho pleases. So with the main opposer absent, Sir. Palmer, the beet sugar man, had but lit tle difficulty In getting the resolution off the table and back Into the hands of the committee for revision. After a slight discussion. It emerged from their hands. and was adopted In the following shape Philippine Resolution' Pnxaed. "Whereas, an immense Industry has been created In the Trans-Mlsslssippl re gion, to-wlt: The beet and cane sugar industry, giving employment to tens of thousands of American working people; "Whereas, efforts are being made in the Philippine Islands to obtain from the gen eral Government Immense areas of "land, apd the employment thereon for the pro duction of sugar thousands of coolies and other cheap labor, discouraging by this competition the production and use of the Trans-Mlsslssippl sugar; "Resolved.
