Republican concerning college debates
1t says The close of another season OF

institutions have become well estab-

were hailed ~ an excellent off TO

students and the public in intercolle-
giate sports, aud for series Of years

universities, and some Of them even

TAPlFF AND FARMER.

The Portland Oregonian IN dlscusslnp
the farmer and the tariff very wisely
observes: The fact is, that whatever
concern the farmer once had in the
maintenance of protective tariffs, mas
about disappeared. They were always
more or less of a fraud upon him,
thrown as a sop to reconcile him to sup
port of protected manufacturing, and
now they have become in many in
stances a positive burden. The reason
is the simplest in the world. The farm
er is an exporter, not a manufacturer
threatened with imports. de wants
markets abroad, not a wall to keep i'm
ports out. Hence it is that a tariff on
farm products is practically imperative.
Nobody is going to send wheat here to
compete with the home product Free
trade in meat would give us the menace
of foreign competition and force the
trust to play fair, but it would not to
any appreciabls extent bring importa-
tons.

THE KRESS LETTERS.

forces Of the Republican party IL
caused a momentary sensation in state
politica! circles. But the fact has been
generally known that some understand

factions Of the party prior to the last
State Republican convention. The I'M
derstanding was indicated when the
present governor then candidate for

Headquarters Of the Stalwart brand OF
Repubhcanism. and had not some un.
derstanding been arrived at between
Mr.. La Toilette and Messrs. Payne and
Phster, the theory il that La Toilette
would not have openly identified him
self with the latter.
The brief armistice declared before
the convention, which was in force IN
Ill after the election, was rudely broken
when the legislature met 1t was found
that the governor was not tractable
from the point Of view Of Payne and
Pfster, and war has been on ever since

mary election measure
The publication Of the Kress letters
only corroborates a rumOr which has
been generally believed that La Fol

an armistice before the last Republican
state convention.
The interesting feature of the Kress
letters in this city IL the Jocular even
fippant comment some Republicans
have openly made on Mr.. Kresss pen
chant for letter writing. One writer In
the Milwaukee Free Press spoke Of one
OF Mr. Kress's letters in which it il nj

REVIVE OLD TIME FAIR.

The Eau Claire Leader in an article
on the effect Of high price Of beef de,
ducts az follows; THE present high
price Of beef will have n tendency TO
encourage the revival Of the old time
cattle fairs in the rural districts.
There was time when the farmer sold
direct TO the butcher but now the beasts
are shipped TO some central Strengthening
point and the meat shipped back TO the
retailer thereby creating an expense
both ways for freight Fat cattle have
been shipped from interior Wisconsin
towns TO Chicago Killed and dressed
there and then sent back 10 the place
from whence they came If periodical
fairs were established in the different
cities and farmers encouraged TO bring
in their stock and sell 10 butchers. tn,
result would be better prices 10 the
stocknan and lower prices 10 the con
sumner, When the big packing frml
are allowed TO do both buying and sell
ing, conditions are reversed the farmer
gets less and the consumer pays more.

E0R POLITICAL REASONS.

For political reasons the government
has instituted an investigation into the
methods Of the beef trust. 1t need
hardly be said that the investigation
and charges are purely spectacular to
impress the dear people that Wash
ington officialdom is looking after their
interests. The sum and substance OF
the charges follow;
That, the constituent members OF the
beef trust Armour, Swift, Hammond,
Morris, Cudahy, and Schwarzachild
and Sulzberger control GO per cent OF
the fresh meat business Of the United
states
That, the defendants conspire to re-
frain from bidding against each other,
except perfunctorily, for live stock
thus compelling stock owners to sell for
less price than they would receive If
no combination existed.
That, the packers conspire to bid up
prices Of live sock for a few days at a
time to allure shippers to send in large
consignments Of stock
That, when a great supply is thus
collected, the hackers drive prices below
the normal level, forcing sales by the
owners and raisers of the stock.
That. the packers conspire to raise
lower, or fix the prices OF fresh meats
to dealers and consumers throughout
the country, and likewise abroad.
That, they restrict the amounts Of
shipments whenever by so doing they
may promote their own profits; and
that they impose on each other penal
ties for breaking agreements.
That, they have \ uniform rule Of
credits
That, they together maintain u black
list Of delinquents AMI refuse to sell to
such delinquents.
That, they impose uniform charges
for carriage on dealers and consumers,
whereas without combination and
conspiracy, no carriage charges what
ever would be made.
That, the packers receive, by means Of
rebates, unlawful rates from railroads
rates which would-be competitors
could not secure
The government demands:
That the packers be enjoined from
continuing any Of the unlawful pro,
ceedings cited above; from attempting
to monopolize the packing business
from refraining from bidding against
one another from arbitrarily fixing
prices. either Of live stock or their
packing products; from maintaining a
black list from imposing carriage
charge for delivery; and from receiving
rebates from the railroads.
That the beef trust produce books
papers, and documents relative to it,
| dealings
That subpoenas be issued to bring
into court for testimony the owners
and managers of the companies con
stituting the combination.

outside of academic circles, because il
is robust sport and is the best Of its
kind College debaters are of no more
account than amateur actors, and tn:
public was not long in finding it ont.
The intercollegiate debate, however,
having found its place as a kind of
training ground promises to hold Its
own in the circle of academic interests.
1t appears to serve an excellent purpose,
furnishing special opportunities to those
students who have oratorical and con-
traversial talents and, by its promin-
ence IN the intercollegiate world, stimu-
lating an interest in debating among
the mass of undergraduates, There
was time, twenty years ago more or
less, when interest in this form of ex-
ercise had sunk to a low point in the
colleges, and nothing was surer to cal
lapse than n students debating society.
The idea Of contests between different
colleges was evidently vital to the
revival which has taken place, since
the intercollegiate competition fur
nished the necessary flip to students
spirits. As the debates have gone on,
year after year, some discussion has
arisen concerning the rules of the game,
much as if football were the competi-
ton in question. Nor can this be con
sdered surprising in view of the desire
to beat which has been the dominant
note in the debating revival. Every
contest must have its judges, who
award the victory, and Furthermore,
certain sharp practices by the debaters
themselves, it has been found by ex-
perience. ought to be forbidden in the
interest of fair play, These circum,
stances render necessary a code of rules,
and when rules are being considered the
subject as a whole is apt to be threshed
out in q luminous manner by those
who are interested.
Some recent discussion indicates that
the question Of judges is still an open
one. One critic would have the judges
submit their decisions in writing, giving
their reasons for their award-a scheme
which would naturally develop into
majority and minority opinions, after
the style of the Supreme court. An
other critic, George L. Fox of New
Haven, who has helped to prepare Yale
debaters, for some of their struggle:
with Harvard and Princeton, would dc
away with judges and awards entirely
Probably neither of these extreme view!

awards of victory the interest OF the
1 students in the Intercollegiate debates
could not be maintained. Suggestions
of an intermediate nature are made, to
the effect that only members OF the bar
be selected as judges, or that only AGA
demic specialists in debating-if there
are such pelsons-be permitted to serve
The mere fact That such suggestions are
made indicates that the question OF
awards of victory has become somewhat
of sore point in intercollegiate debat-
ing circles. The side that loses may
think the l'.dges biased or unfair. 1t Is
certain, however, that perfect judges
are unattainable for college debates If
they are unattainable for the United
States Supreme court. And, after all,
is it not good preparation for the hard
knocks of later life for students to run
up hard against adverse decisions on
on questions which, to their minds, can
be determed in but one way?
In the matter of formal awards of
victory there is to be sure, another
point to be considered. The two sides
take opposing phases of the question,
and it often is the fact that one phase
is the more difficult to support than the
other. 1t has been suggested that to
secure completer impartiality in judg-
hn 70 hn
side Of the issue. But the decline in
interest on the part of the audience and
the antagonists that would accompany
such an experiment would be too severe
handicap. One might as well suggest
that runners in a race go in opposite
directions. A more practical hint is
that each college have representatives
on both sides of the question, although
the consuming desire of Students to
beat a rival institution would probably
interfere with such scheme.
Debating, in its original signific-
ance, is simply quarrel or a fight. 1t
is not designed as a method of extract
ing truth in which the contestants shall
seek only TO know the truth without
reference to personal victory or defeat
The great debater is often one who is
most successful in obscuring truth by
artifice in confusing the reason. The
practical value of debating il, of course,
to be found in the fact that the article
of one contestant will in the long run,
check the artifice of the other, and that
from their encounter truth will emerge
triumphant. The attitude of the man
of science who cares nothing for contro-
versy and everything for truth is much
| higher and nobler than that Of the
mere debater. For, as Huxley said
and he was one of the greatest of con
troversalists-a man may have the
truth on his side, although he may
have poor and easily controversial ar.
guments to sustain his view. Inter.
collegiate debating ought not to be
practiced without full recognition OF
that fact; and it is the part of the pro-
| fessor in his classroom to hold up truth
as the great end in view, rather than
mere victory in gaining applause in
controversy
