Oregon Agricultural College, Corval
lls, Or., May 18. The annual debate
between the Oregon Agricultural col
lege and the Washington State college,
which took place here last night, was
won by the local team, the vote of the
Judges being 2 to 1. The discussion
was on the question of the t gradual
abandonment of the protective tariff.
The Washington boys upheld the af
firmative, basing their contention
mainly on the grounds that protection
was pot necessary.

standard of living of the great bulk of
the American people- would be lowered
by the abolition of the protective tar
iff. It Insisted that the American peo
ple were concerned principally as producers.

thusiastic audience. The college yell
was heard almost as frequently as at
the athletic contests.

bahr, A. F. Eschrlcht and A. P. Gib
son. Washington was represented by
E, R. Jinett, Arthur Stewart and R. A.
Gaines. The Judges were Dr. Franklin

gene, and J. S. Van Winkle of Albany.
