AT BROADBENT.
On Friday evening the Broad bent
Literary and Social club met at the
school house for regular meeting and
debate. The bouse was well filled,
including both rooms, which open to-
gether.
The program opened with selec
tions on tha New Edison Phonograph,
rendered by Mr. Femley, of the Pa
cific Drug company, and received with
hearty applause and encore. Prof. E.
Ray Jones, of the Broadbent school,
presided.
The subject of debate was “Resolv
ed that live stock should not be al
lowed to run at large in Coos county.”
The Judges seectod were: Dr. O. H.
Clarke, of Myrtle Point, Mrs. Geo.
Hermann and A. H. Bender. Those of
the affirms tiye were: O. H. Robinson,
Teiach Wagner and Harvey Johnson.
The negative: Mias Mina Magness,
Miss Minnie Ball and* Miss Fannie
In the coarse of the debate it ap
peared that there was a misunder
standing between the two teams
about the term “livestock." At the
first meeting of the club, when the
question was proposed and decided
upon, it was agreed by the members
present that bogs were to be exclud
ed from the discussion; but at the
second meeting, when the sides were
chosen it
that this limitation
was not mentioned, and those selected
for the affirmative, not having been
present at the first meeting, were
not aware of this agreement; hence
the misunderstanding. The chair
man put the question to the house and
it was decided that as the question
bad bean stated, hogs must be includ
ed in the discussion.
, The Misses Bell and Hayes did very
well
wen indeed in producing their argu
ment for the negative, it being an en
tirely new experience for both of
them. The diacuasion proved very in
teresting and also quite amusing, one
of the suet amusing features being,
perhaps, the vivid picture portrayed
by Mr. Wagner of trying to catch
and steer the ungovernable pig. Mr.
Wagner shows talent as a corned an.
The decision of the judges was in
favor of the affirmative.
