MR.. EDITOR: In looking over the

their own interests Well Mr.. Sentinel,
il is hard, and the Democrats are pretty
well convinced of ii by this time.- atleast
in Seattle and Tacoma, and when the
returns are counted on election day they
will find that The hop growers and farm
ers all over the state. will tell in plain

In response to call published in the pa
pers few days ago meeting was held in
the mayors Office yesterday afternoon to in
augurate measures for the entertainment of
the Society of the Army of the Potomac dur
ing the coming summer.
His Honor, Mayor Melcher, was called to
the chair, and Mr.. C. w. Roberts chosen
secretary.
After some discussion 1t was decided to
appoint an advisory committee of 10 to COM
municate with the officers of the Society of
the Army of the Potomac to ascertain what
is expected of the citizens of Portland in the
matter of arranging for the annual meeting
to be held in this city on the Srd and 4th of
July.
1t is desirable that the membership of the
society shall be increased in this city, and

Rowdoin College.

Tuesday evening, at a regular meeting Of
the Bowdoin College Debating Club, the fol-
lowing question was very ably discussed:
Resolved. That the annexation of Canada
would be beneficial to the United States.
Affirmative, F. E. bennett and j. NJ. w.
Moody; negative, c. W. Webb and w. G..
Mallett
The arguments on both sides of this ques-
tion, which is evidently of such vital impor-
lance to the United States, were exception
ally good this being especially the case with
Mr.. Dennetts argument, which was we'll
based and very well delivered. Mr.. Webb,
on the negative, also brought forth some
very weighty arguments for his own side,
which tended to show the contrast between
the social and political situation of the two
peoples. He laid considerable stress on the
fact that about one-fourth Of the population
of Canada are unedueated and under the
sway Of that powerful arm, the Roman Gath
ole church, aud that they are far from being
lifted to become citizens OF the United
States =
Altogether the debate was extremely in
teresting and the fact that the benefit de-
rived from this club, so recently formed, Is
invaluable, is becoming more and more evil
dent.
