| Willmar, MINI, Feb. l8.-By a vote
of 2 to !, the Willmar high school de-
batting team won the championship over
the high school team Of Pennington, in
a holly contested battle at the opera
house IN this city last evening. The
wordy combat was witnessed by an au-

and considerable enthusiasm was dis
played.

Martin of the affirmative. He re-
viewed the past policy Of the country in
regard to immigration and the result Of
| our economic conditions, and the Char
acter of the immigration, the change in
industrial and agricultural conditions,
| and our duty to posterity.> He con-
| tended that the change in our economic
condition was such. that there was
no more need of immigration; that the
change. in the character Of the immi-
grants was such that il we did need

! tanned that the strength Of the country
lies in the mixed population. The con.
gestion of the slums in the large cities
was not the fault of the immigrants
The children of the immigrants make
our best citizens. Charts were used
to good advantage, and the speaker
cited other countries that had not ex
cluded immigration.
Maurice Jenness for the affirmative
showed how the immigration of the
present differed from that Of the past
in the fact that it has increased in the
past eight years, while for northern
Europe it had decreased, showing how
undesirable the present influx Of. i'm.
migrants was. The immigration of the
present differed. from that of the past
in the fact that it is stimulated by
steamship companies, who are compel
ing for the traffic. The present immi
grafton is a menace to our country in
three ways-frst, politically; secondly
in the fact that it is not composed Of

backed up by charts showing, statistics

| tended that our present laws restricting
immigration are all-suficient both In
their application and execution; that in
the matter of naturalization, fraud is
not due to the imni grant, but to the un-
scrupulous ward politician; that our
immigration from southern Europe is de-
creasing rapidly, while that from such
countries as Norway, Sweden, Denmark
and England is increasing. Chart illus
tratlons were used.
Victor Knutson, known as sfthe little
whirlwind, dwelt chiefly upon the UNI
and displayed charts to prove his points.
He dwelt on pauperism, criminality and
lilliteracy.
Miss Marian Gates was the third
speaker for the negative. She contended
that Americans cannot and will not ill
the labor demand; that foreigners do
not enter into disastrous competition
with Americans in regard to wages;
that the policy Of the affirmative is
in direct violation Of International law,
lagainst the spirit Of the constitution
and menace to American government
Foreigners are an indispensable factor
in the upbuilding Of our country.

But as the constitution now stands
the state is powerless to assist in
the matter. II the people carry the
amendment it will be nothing more
than an enabling act whereby the
legislature could, whenever the peo-
pie desired, pass such laws in regard
to aiding in road construction as
seemed best.
There is certainly nothing in such
an amendment to fear and it would
seem to be good judgment to vote in
favor of it.
With comparatively no more ex-
pense than at present the roads
should be much better than they
now are. With little state aid and
state supervision and engineering
on roads on which the state gave aid,
the people would gain much practi'
cal assistance in road construction.

ON WATER WORKS.

The water works question is one
that should interest every voter in
the city to the extent at least OF
registering his opinion on the sub
iect of municipal or corporate own
ership, vote next Monday in favor
of the proposition to bond the city
for a general system should the
measure carry, which it ought, and
by decisive majority will settle the
question and confer authority on the
common council to at once begin OPP
erations toward providing water
supply of such quantity and quality
as growing progressive city like
our own should have. If the meas
ure is defeated il will mean another
delay at least of two if not -four
years before il is liable to be taken
up again and the city be that far
Their away from the desired end
While there may be an honest diff
fering of opinion relative to fran
chise or corporate ownership and
municipal ownership, it is so slight
as not to cut much of a figure and
should not be regarded in the pres
ent proposition.

The United States is gridironed
by the finest system Of railroads in
the world, with an interest paying
investment OF twelve billion dollars
also by one of the poorest systems Of
dirt roads. Should the railroads of
the country fall into the state of de
cay and inefficiency, the statisticians
would be busy calculating the amount
of money lost to the country every
year through poor transportation.
To begin with, everything has to be
transported to the railroads over the
wagon roads. Why not, therefore,
begin with the calculation of the
amount lost through the continuance
of system, especially in our great
producing areas, of miserable wag-
on roads. The good roads question
is as rational as it is local, If every
agricultural congressional district
would take up the good roads ques-
ton with energy and persistence
there would be a new policy of So
called government paternalism in
force before very long in which the
farmers would be the beneficiaries.

THE WHIRLIGIG OF TIME.

1t is trite to say that this is an
era of wonderful inventions, steam,
electricity, ex-rays and radium, tele-
phones and wireless telegraphy, but
that most remarkable machine, the
whirligig of time is the most re-
markable and prolific in surprises.
There is scarcely anything anywhere
that may not be expected from it,
for hath it not been said that there
is nothing so imminent as the unex-
pected. Richard Croker, the great
boss of Tammany, on his recent trip
to this country suggested that the
Democratic and Republican parties
might unite in 1908 in renominating
Theodore Roosevelt for the Office OF
president of the United States.
There are hundreds of thousands of
people who remember that in 1900
Mr. Croker was violently active in
the campaign in which Mr.. Roose'
Welt was q candidate for the vice
presidency and that one of the prop
critics of that campaign to influence
voters against Governor Roosevelt
was his representation as wild mar
secured in a strong cage on wheels
| which moved about the streets o
New York while the living carica
ture of the governor yelled and
showed his massive teeth anG
threatened with frightful gestures
the crowds which gathered to watch
him pass. No other tableaux vi
wants of the campaign appeared to
please Mr.. Croker like this. He
would assemble his henchmen as the
terrible monster passed and point to
the thing behind the bars, roar with
laughter and clap his hands will
ecstacy. Now he suggests that botf
parties nominate President Roose
welt four years hence. Verify the
whirligig of time is wonderful ma
chine and being unpatented the
whole can enjoy it.
