President Hi'unnn Talks .
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.
