An Interesting Program Presented to
Large Audience Assembled to
Hear Budding Demosthenes.
Marshfleld won a signal victory In
tho opening debate of the Inter-High
School Debating League against
North Bend at the opera house last
nigh two votes 'or i"io former
against one for Hie latter deciding
this Important contest. Tho winners,
Miss Rith Smith, Eric Bolt and Miss
Marjory Cowan, were given an ova
tion by tho Jilgh School students who
were present In tho opera house.
The losers, Marlon Reynolds, Miss
fidith Alger and Ernest Vigars, of
North Bead, were also cheered for
tlio game contest against tho win
ners. The deTiate was held on tho stage
of tho opera house which was neatly
decoiated with evergreens and winter
plants famous throughout Oregon.
On the back scenery of tho stage
were the initials "N. B. H. S." and
'M. II. S." displayed In largo hand
some letters of silvery sheen. Tho
fciarsbileld contingent was located
la the right iside of the house while
tho vialtors were well In front In tho
cenfer.
Ai tor high school yells had been In
process for several minutes the
proceedings opened by Professor
Golden announcing a piano duet, "A
Cduutry Dunce," by Misses Helen
Bradley and Gertrude Mandigo. This
Was quite a treat and drew prolonged
applause from the audience.
rrofossor Golden then made an an
nouncement of the occasion of tho
debate. He said that at the last
meeting of tho State Teachers' asso
ciation it had been decided to organ
ize a State Debating League, com
posed of four districts the north
w stern, northeastern, southeastern
and southwestern districts, Marsh
Held, North Bond, and all tho cities
and towns having high schools of this
corner of tho atate being in tho latter
district.
Tho occasion last night, ho said,
was the opening debate in this dis
tiict. The winning team would then
compete with tho winning team of the
other districts and the llnal debato
for tho &tato championship will bo
hold nt Salem in the mouth of May
uet. The contests will be held from
yar to year, and In Professor Gold-L-n's
opinion such a contest is of In
fiatioly more Importance than muddy
ritnlodts on the Held, although he
favored football also.
After the announcement a quar
tette composed of Misses Eickworth,
Anderson, Johnson and Mr3. Stauff
sang. They were so highly applaud
ed that they gave an eucoro which
v. as greatly appreciated. Tho de
li '!: was then announced, wltih
twelve minutes each for tho debaters,
and live minutes for the rebuttal, tho
Bubject being:
"Resolved, that tho further immi
gration from tho Oriental countries
Bhould bo prohibited by tho United
Slates."

After the adoption exercises the
Marshiicld camp united to participate

Cargocs for Many Foreign Countries
Canal Will Dinw ou Local

Record breaking lumber snlpments
.or foreign porta will be made from
Portland during the month of Janu
ary, according to tho Journal. An
nouncement to this effect was made
recently when it was reported that
the German steamer GermanicuB, the
British steamer Saint Egbert and the
two Norwegian steamers Tungus and
Halvard would be hero shortly after
the first of the year to begin loading.
The combined cargoes will repre
sent all of 10,000,000 feet, and it la
probable that nearly 25,000,000 feet
will be shipped to foreign ports dur
ing the month.
In addition to this, but under the
head of old business, comes the re
port from San Francisco to the effect
that tho Norwegian steamer Minerva
left that port for Portland under
charter to carry lumber to La Boca,
Panama. This cargo was purchased
here some tlmo ago by D. L. Gillespie
a large lumber dealer of Ppu iyl
vania, who sometime ago secKtfi a
contract to furnish about 12,000,000
feet for the canal project.
Arrangements for tho shipment
were not closed until qulto recently.
The cargo will be handled here by
tho Portland Lumber company, and
the lumber will be supplie.l mostly
by tho Portland Lumber company
and the St. John's Lumber company.
The Minerva's cargo can hardly be
set afloat until after tho .first of the
year, so it will help swell tho total
for the mouth. She will carry away
about 3,500,000 feet.
Lumber for China.
Tho charter of the Norwegian
steamer Halvard and Tuusus Is
somewhat out of the ordinary trans
actions in its peculiar line because
the vessels aro of extremely small di
mensions' for tho trans-Pacific trade,
neither of them having capacity for
more than 1,300,000 feet. They are
handy vessels, however, and that fea
ture secured them the business.
Frank Watorhouse & Co. will load
the Tungus for porta in China, and
the Halvard will be loaded by Arthur
Gamewell, of Seattle. She will re
ceive her cargo at Kalama, to which
placo most of the lumber will be
shipped by rail from mills at Cen
tralia. Heretofore these mills have
depended principally upon rail trade.
Demoralization of rail business be
cause of the recent rate advance on
shipments east of tho Rockies have
driven the interior mills into compe
tition with mills on the waterways.
The haul from Ceutralla Is down
grade or the vessel would probably
have to be sent to Puget Sound for
her cargo. Tho Halvard goes to La
Boca, her cargo also having been sold
to the canal commission.
The British steamer Saint Egbert
will carry both grain and lumbar, the
grain going to Hongkong and the
lumber to Manila. It is understood
that tho cargo will bo dispatched by
Balfour, Guthrie & Co. The Saint
Egbert Is a good sized steamer and
will get away with about 1,500 tons
of wheat and 2,000,000 feet of lum
ber.
Other Vessels to Lond.
But these vessels are not the only
ones to carry lumber during the first
of the approaching new year. Tho
British ship Jordanhlll was chartered
sometime ago by the Oregon Pine
Export Lumber Co., to load hero for
London direct and It Is said that two
other cargoes have been sold for
Europe, one to go on a sailing vessel
and tho other to be shipped by steam
er, the latter method a new departure
In lumber shipping from this part of
tho world to tho old continent.
in addition to this future business
tho British steamers Valdlvla and
Strathord aro loading In the harbor
at present, tho former for the orient
and tho lattor for Port Plrlo, Aus
tralia. Theso two cargoes will rep
resent approximately 7,000,000 feet.
Ono cargo was recently sold here
by an exporter to Hawaiian buyers
and It is understood negotiations aro
now on for a small-sized vessel to
carry It across tho sea.
Tho American mammoth bark
Acme will finish 'oadlng during tho
3,000,000 feet of Oregon pine for
Now York. This will bo tho largest
lumber cargo ever shipped from this
port on a sailing vessel.
