CASTORIA For Infanta and Cbildren. rW fu ll a: THE COLLEGE DEBATE Interesting Arguments Both Sides. on "Ml l I.I HAWAII HE 4NXll" I'uilllc 1'uivrrxitjr Kepreseututives Argue with Mea fruia I'artlitud I uitf rsity The P. I'. Mu Wlu. On last Friday at Portland Univer sity a very lively deiiate occurred l I ween a leant iroiu Pacitic Universi ty and one from Portland Uuiversity on the question, -'Rijsolved that the United Slates would he benefited by the annexation of Hawaii. " At lust eight o'clock the Forest drove delegation, with their team in the It ad, emered Ihe chapel aud were received with hearty applause. Five iinuuicH later the Hesperus chain pious made Iheir apK-araiice. The teams, seat eti at tables in the front pari of the hall on opposite sides of ihe room, glain-ed anxiously at each other as if to anticipate what Ihey might expect. Rut they had little time lo calculate the ability of Iheir opixinenis for Judge Morelaud, of Portland, who acted as chairman of the (M-cassiou, after a few prelimi nary remarks, read Ihe question aud intnxlucetl C. W. Teuney, of Port land University to open Ihe debate for the atlirmaiiTe. Mr. Teuney, in an oration, meritorious in its compos ition and delivery, dwelt at great length upon the history of Hawaii closing w ith a vehement appeal for (he annexation of Jlhe Island and a gratification of the wishes of the am ple of the United Slates. His speech though, contained no gixxi sound ar gument, and Mr. Miller, who lollop ed is principal for Ihe negative, simply ignored it, no dounl deeming it unworthy of any attention. Mil ler was cool and collected. He lie gan at once to argue and crowded the twelve minutes, which was alloled lo him, full of ironclad statements, tend ing tn show that the people of Haw aii are unfit to Ix-couie citiz-ns of the United Slates; thai there is now no svslem of government existing in the United States, which is at all adapted to the island; and that the climate is entirely unsuited lo the Americans, making it impossible for them lo go (here and engage in any kind of manual pursuits. In conclusion he presented (he fact that nearly one tenth of the population of Hawaii are atfis-led Willi leprosy. Mr. Wis!, by far the la?st debater from (he Hesx-rus Six-iety, came for ward as first colleague. Hecertainly fulfilled the most sanguine expecta tions of his friends anil considerable disconcerted his apixinenls, by the manner in which he replied to Mil ler's speech. After his rebuttal, he made a strong argument for Ihe val ue of Hawaii both as a commercial, and as a naval and coaling center. Rut Kirkwood, our Abe Lincoln of the west, was more than an tqual for his ipponent. Just as "Kirk" has been accustomed to iins-l his antago nist tu the center of ihe line on the football Held, so in (his tuse, with cixilness and delilaralion, yet full of earnestness and force, he attacked Ihe arguments that arrayed them selves, sweeping ail Ix-lore him. The course which he pursued was to prove that Hawaii is entirely unnec cessary lo Ihe welfare of the United States. In refutation of Mr. Weed's speech, he showed in figures, which the Hllirmative never attempted to disprove, that by annexing ihe island the United Stales would Ixj at a loss financially; that it was of no import ance as a (staling station, since a mer chant vessel can carry sutllcient amountof coal to run 25,000 miles and that it would be of no value whatever as a naval defense, for with one-tenth the money necessary for the fortification of Hawaii, we could make our coast line so formidable that no nation could Htem it success fully. Morgan, who followed in support of the afllrmative, ennumerated the different reasons proffered by his principal and colleague, while he in adtlition insisted that the negative had no authority for saying that a vessel could sail 25,000 miles without recoaling, claiming that every steam ship line that sails from our coast across the ocean runs through Hawaii where it has to diverge 200 miles from a direct rout. He closed by supposing a war with some Furopean country, pointing out the advantage that we would have, if Hawaii were well fortified for our defence. ' Mr. A. D. Shock, second colleague for the negative, recurred to the ar guments used by his principal aud colleague, making extremely plain to the Judge what the negative were striving to prove, adding many state ment i in corroboration of what had already been presented. Shock show, ed in the great detriment of his op ponents, that they had not well com prehended the question, since they had lalxired under the supposition that Hawaii must tie annexed or Inst. Rut he went further and claim ed that the Island Is belter ofT just as she is than she could lie if annexed to Ihe United States, from the fact that the government which she now has Is Ix-tter than any which we could give. He proved, by letter from the navy dei artment, that a vessel can sail 25,mm miles without nssmling and also, upnn the author ity of the leading steamship lines in Portland, that vessels tin not go well ten miles out of their way to stop al Hawaii. Then came the closing spets-hes, Wts-d deserves gn-at praise for his rebuttal; fir although he had weak supixirt from his colleagues and hard ly any ground upon which lo statxi, nevertheless he made a stronger close Hi tti Miller. Alalxmt !I::10 o'clock the quest 'on was submitted to Ihe judges for tl eir dis-ision on the merits of the urgu menls. After a few minutes delils ration Judge Sears gave his vote for the af firmative; A. U Veszie, for the neg ative; Lydell Raker, for the negative. At this decision there was loud ac clamation hy ths audience; but no sellish demonstration of delight by the friends of the victors. Mr. Ix-Forest gave a few closing words, offering his hearty eongrau lttlons to the ynunjr men of Oamma Sigma, expressing a desire that the Universities might in Ihe future be drawn more cltHt-ly together. As s-ain as the audience was dis miss,H. a very cordial reception was given the Forest tlrove ieople. During the entire evening there was a most friendly feeling manifest e I; no envy, no dejection on the mrl of the defeated; no boasting, no yell ing nn the part of the Tictorious. Any thing just like It neither institution has seen fa-fore. Such a contest Is far more edifying than football; far more beuellcial to the intellectual faculties than oratorical contests. luter-eoilegiate debating has for many years Ixs-n in vogue among ea-lern schools, but has only Just reached our coast. It is predicted hy many that debating will in time displace oratorical tournaments. As usual, he who gains a victory, only increases his responsibility. So with PaciHe University, she mast now prepare to meet W ilia met te, and if reports are true this next struggle will be much harder thau the last. Rknj. F. Dun ms. HOI 111 1TAUTIN.
