Prcscott, of the Baker City high school, who was greeted warmly. His oration, "The Present Crisis,' was a masterly arraignment at th capitalistic forces and a review of tho struggles that have been going on be tween labor and capital In this coun try. Introducing his oration with brief historical review of the forces which have undermined former na tions, he drew a most lucid picture of present conditions and in plain yet effective eloquence, gavo the remedy which seemed to him tho suro cure for the strike evil. He advocated the complete organization and unlficaton of all labor forces the merging of the non-union force Into the union nnd the oration was so interesting from a sociologcal standpoint that the listeners might easily have forgotten that the speaker was a school boy and was being judged upon the qual ity or his delivery alone.

It Is not necessnry to remark of the applause which greeted the announce ment of the judges. Pendleton went Into the fight to win. Her contestant was drilled to win. and the decision of three Impartial men, disinterested and competent, bears out the excel lence of her preparations. Tho judges were Mayor J. D. Slater, of La Grande, President French, of Wfcston Normal School, nnd Colin V. Dymentr correspondent of the Spokes man-Review.
