THE YOUNG DEBATORS.
The Y. VI. c. A. Bows and Richmond Col
lego Students Meet In Discussion.

Last night a select audience assembled
in the chapel at Richmond College TO hear
a competitive debate between the Ran
dolph Literary Society, of the Young
Mems Christian Association OF klchmond'
and the Mu Sigma Rho Society OF Rich
mond College.
The exercises began with an appropriate
address bv Mr.. J. +. Hoitsinger, OF Nir-
cinia, president OF the Mu Sigma Rho So
After a delightful duet by Miss Lillian
Arnold and Mrs. LoOcherman came the de-
bate. The question was resolved that the
United States west of the Mississippi will
eventually become the dominant portion
of the country.
Mir. j. ". Gordon, Of the Randolph So
cietv. was the first speaker on the attirma-
tive. He began with reference TO the un-
VARYING westward course of civilization
and power; then passed 70 picture the
wonderful mineral and agricultural re-
sources of our western States and Terrific
ries. The rapidly-increaslngp population OF
the West, the perplexing political pro
blems of the South and East, and other
strong and interesting points wereadduced
in favor of the affirmative.
Mr.. T.. W. Greaner, Of the Mu Sigma Rho
Society, for the negative, noticed orlei-
lv some arguments produced by Mr.
the excellent character and shining
records of representative men IN the
Atlantic States. The East is unquestlona-
hlv the dominant portion of our country
to-day, he said. The new South y pre-
sents a formidable rival TO the rapldly-de-
veloping West.
MIR. c. NJ. Wallace, Jr., Of the Randolph
Society. next spoke for the Affirmative
This gentleman paid 6 lowing tribute 70
the Mu Sigma Rho Society, and proceeded
mainly on the ground that all national
greatness is determined by the amount OF
wealth which nation possesses, and the
West is fast becoming tine richest section
of our land The West has also another
element of uower-nen, strong, brave
energetic, intelligent.
Mr.. W. Owen Carver, OF the Mu Sigma
Rho Society, closed the debate with clear
and well-arrangcd argument for the mega
tive. He admitted tire influence OF wealth
on national power but showed that tne
East is likely TO retain its supremacy III
commerce and wealth. He produced many
striking points in support OF the afhrha-
tive, besides effectively refuting the arsu-
ments Of the negative. =,
Mr.. Carver won the best debater's medai
in his society last year.
The judges, Drs. Julian 1. Wright, ol
Richmond. and w. Lee Broaddus. OF hlns
and Queen, and Mr.. I. @. Garrett, OF hich-
mond, decided in favor of the affirmative,
The singing by Miss Lillian Arnold ahu
| Mrs. Loocherman Miss Katie Brown, ac-
! companist,) was much enjoyed.
The exercises were closed with appro-
pirate remarks by Mr.. G. w. Morris, presl'
nent OF the Randolph Society.
