The frosty weather of Saturday evening
tended to lessen the usual attendance at
the literary gathering. But very few of
those announced by the program to take
part were present. Miss Bessie Siebert
gave hesitation entitled, ''The Rolling of
Drums" after which business and short
recess filled the time until the debate
was called. In that was centered. the
interest of the society, apparently, and
and the debaters all did well. Practice
will soon give the speakers greater ease
and prevent small grammatical errors of
speech. Considering the inability to
secure books of reference and statistics,
the question that the United States
should control the railroads within her
borders was well discussed. The mega
tive gained the favorable decision. For

be, RESOLVED, That the Indian has more
cause to complain of treatment at the
hands of the white man than the negro.
