out between the two schools Is the old
mutea one or government owneramp 01
railroads, the question being, "Resolved,
That the government should own and
operate the railroads of the United
State." The Dallea will have the affir
mative and Baker the negative side of
the question.
Judge William Smith will preside at

from outside places so that their de
cision will be perfectly fair and im
partial. B.i K. liuffman, editor of the
Pendleton East Oregonian, Judge
Thomas Crawford of La Grande, and
Attorney Charles Cochran of La Grande,
will decide which side will become the
champions of eastern Oregon. William
