The men who have been interested in

not given up the scheme and the council
will be asked again before long for a
franchise to permit the laying Of tracks

meet with the Sheboygan Traction Com
pany tracks, which are to be extended
to that point, in order TO make con

The local men interested in the pro

fuse the franchise, when asked the sec

Manitowoc people took more than the
usual interest in debate at Milwaukee
last week, between a cam of the Mil
waukee Normal school and of the White
water Normal because of the fact that
Stephen Mcmahon, son of Clerk of the
Court Mcmahon of this city, was a par
ticipant The question was: Resolved,
That our policy in the Philippines is and
has been just and wise. The debaters
for Milwaukee were Stephen Mcmahon
and Miss Mollie Thomas, seniors, and
William L. Davis, junior. The judges
decided two to one against Milwaukee.
Young Mcmahon was given first place
in the oratorical contest between the
Normal school teams of the state at Ste
vens Point over year ago and second in
contest at Oshkosh later. He has been
invited to deliver the Decoration day
address at Valders.

THE JOINT DEBATE BETWEEN
APPLETON AND MANITOWOC.

Resolved, That England was justified in the
MANTTowoc. APPLETON.
Louis Musil Gus Waldo
Stanley Pierce Will Stearns
Florence Sedgwick AL. Wicke5berg.
The debate Friday evening between
the Ryan high school of Appleton and
the Northside high school of this city re-
shifted in tie, one of the judges voting
for Appleton and the other for Mantle
woo, the third judge of the Oshkosh Nor
NAL having sent word at the last mo-
ment that he was unable to come. The
crowded Opera house was a compliment
to that portion of the intellectual activi-
ty of the school that finds it's expression
in public speaking.
While unsatisfactory in result, the ra-
dical difference in styles of debate OF the
two teams gave an unusual interest to
the discussion. The Manitowoc team
avoided any semblance of gesture though
it is probable that their simple, earnest
delivery was as effective with the Judges
as the polished presentation of their op-
ponents, though less pleasing to the eye.
In working up their side of the discus
sion and arranging their material the
greater maturity of the Appleton speak
ers gave them decided advantage over
the local debaters In fact their debate
was planned and arranged with such or
derby judgment and their arguments
placed and stated with such shrewdness
that no one could escape the impression
that the debate was beyond the ability of
a high school student and in part at least
was the product of some trained public
speaker assisting the team The follow
ing skeleton outline of the Appleton de-
bate, shows the admirable arrangement
of the argument:
First Speaker:
], England recognized independence
of the Transvaal, as shown by
a. Official negotiations between
the two.
b. England treated the Transvaal
as treaty making power.
C. English consuls sent to the
Transvaal
2. England's relations with the
Transvaal was governed by
the treaty of 1SS4-the most
recent.
This treaty grants internal
sovereignty"
Second Speaker:
The following grievances, urged by
England to Justify war; greatly ex-
aggerated
a. Northumberland of English
men.
b. Their inadequate representation
in Transvaal government.
C. Excessive taxes on foreign CAPT
tai invested in the Transvaal.
d. Exclusion OF the English Ian
guage from Transvaal schools.
Third Speaker:
England responsible for the immedi-
ate causes of war
a. Jameson raid

d. Elgland's tickle diplomacy.
e. Her refusal of arbitration
Not one of the Appleton speakers
trenched on ground covered by his col
legues, each speaker taking up the dis
cussion precisely at the point where his
colleague left off. The logical precision
with which their debate was construct
ed and developed was an intellectual
pleasure.
| The debate demonstrates that the
time spent by debaters in conference
like the consultations between attorneys
on one side of a case, is by far the most
profitable portion of their preparation.
1t is there that the debate is really lost
or won. The interchange of informa-
| ton and ideas at such meeting, the dis
cussion of lines of attack and defense is
team work" of precisely the kind en-
ployed in the Office of every large mer-
camille and manufacturing establish
ment and professional firm in the coun-
try. There is no better training for the
growing mind
1t is understood that Principal Evans
strongly disapproved of his team seek
ing outside assistance in preparing their
debates which naturally put them at a
great disadvantage against team that
certainly do.
OF the two teams, the local showed
greater originality in working up argu-
ments. Their aggressiveness at times
was almost startling. The charges of
ignorance, immortality and incapacity
made against the Beers were savage in
their igor, 1t was peculiar co-inci-
dence that Stanley Pierce's fierce attack
on the Beers and their president, Dom
Poul, was followed by an almost equally
bitter attack of Great Britain's motives
in Interfering in the internal affairs of
the Transvaal
One OF the incidents of the debate was
the display of Pierce's enormous charts
showing the immense burden of taxes
borne by foreign capital in the Trans
vaal. The use of charts and maps in de-
bates is becoming quite prevalent and
they form an effective aid to the speaker.
Louis Musil's sketch of the history of
the Transeaal was splendid example
of the use of the difficult style of nara
tive debate His style was rapid and
clear.
The debate of Florence Sedgwick was
one of the features of the debate, reveal
ing oratorical powers rarely found in so
young a speaker. Her delivery is of
that aggressiveness which convinces
without antagonizing. 1t was perhaps
an error in judgment that so large aror-
ton OF her debate was a recapilulation
of the arguments of her side, the short
time allotted the speakers hardly Justify
ing it.

Insane r1an at Large.

Sheriff Lehman went to Two Greeks
Tuesday to arrest William Ihlenfeldt of
that town, on the charge of being in
sane. The man has been in the ASYLUM
before and about two years ago was re-
leased as cured Several days ago he
showed returning symptoms of aberra-
ton Of mind and Judge Anderson was
asked to commit him to the county in
stitution. Ihlenfeldt had become dan
gerous to the community threatening to
kill people with gun he carried. When
the sheriff came upon the scene the man
had disappeared and could not be locat-
ed though an active search was kept up.
The sheriff placed the warrant in the
hands of an officer with instructions to
arrest Ihlenfeldt as soon as he put in an
appearance.
