PENN-WEsLEYAN DEBATE.
Will Take Place in Penn Chapel Fri
day Evening, May 81.

A debate has been arranged be-
tween Athens society of Penn college,
and Harlan society of Iowa Wesleyan
university of Mt Pleasant, Iowa, to
take place in the chapel at Penn col
lege next Friday evening, May 27, at
8 o'clock.
The question to be debated is: RE
solved, That United States Senators
should be elected by direct vote of
the people" Iowa Wesleyan, repre-.
sented by Chris ]. Christensen, Joseph
Brown and Wallace Longstreth, af-
firms. Penn denies. Both colleges
are represented by extra strong
teams this year. Harley M. Ollie,
Chauncey H. Clarke and Erwin e.
stringfellow represent our college.
All three are strong debaters.
The question that is to be debated
is one of absorbing interest, as it bids
fair to become in the near future one
OF the great questions of our country.
The question Of an amendment to the
federal constitution, so as to take
away the power from the state legis-
latures of electing United States sen.
ators, and giving that power directly
to the people seems destined to be-
come great political issue. Thus il
VIII be very interesting to hear both
sides Of this question discussed next
Friday evening by the two colleges.
