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.
