President Iloman, of Willamette University appeared and mado one of tho most encouraging nnd lriplrlng tnlks of tho eyonlng. Ho was very happy In his remarks, nnd thoy woro very well received. Ho Is enthusias tic over tho possibilities of tho Cnpl tal Pity, nnd this part of Oregon In portlculnr. . shall be far wrong If I put tho total number of the audience listening tc the speakers at between 1000 -to 1500, which surely Is significant when It Is remembered that the dele gation of workmen nlono totaled over 15,000. "The workman, however, ns 1 have said, cares naught for politics, and aB soon ob ho had been dismissed from his uncongenial dutlo3 In the parade he made tracks for home, doffed his khaki uniform nnd pre pared himself for a good night up town, which in tho majority of cases, racatiB a bad head in the morning. "Tho speeches woro mostly good from an oratorical point of view, nnd woro listened to with n peculiar kind of quietness strnngc to ono used to some pretty lively tlme3 nt pollticil campaigns' In the 'old country. There were occaslonnl cheers and shrill cries Bitch ns when Tuft canif In for ottlogy by tho speaker; but, to sum up my impressions of tho day's proceedings nnd a six months' resi dence In this country, it seems to mo that tho average American workman Is extremely apathetic in both locnl and national politics and Is, easily led nnd controlled." LETTERS TO CEMENT FRIENDSHIP WITH U. S. (Unltrd I'rcm f.cnscd Wire.) Molbourno, Oct. 1G. Thousands of lottorH to school boys In tho United States nnd England wcro mailed to day by tho lads of Australia, as a wart of tho plan of fostorlng and In touHlfylng race prldo, with n view to Rtrongthonlng tho friendship between tho countries nnd drawing tho young er generation eloso togothor. This Ib only ono fenturo of tho grcnt mvement fr tho "whlto mnn's Pacific," which has grown out of tho visit of tho American llcot to thoio shores. Tho feeling that Amor lea and England must join In gnlnfpp tho supremncy of tho Pacific for tho whlto raco grows strongor ovory day. It Is hoped that each school boy in Australia will build up a correspond ence with a boy In Amorlcn or 'Eng Innd and that those letters will load to n clnso friendship and realization of mutual Interests between tho conn trios. . Tho letters tell of tho ndvanco mont and development of tho coun tries, nnd of tho necessities of Asiat ic exclusion.
