GREAT GAME TO BE
 FOUGHT SATURDAY
ALABAMA-AUBURN CONTEST IN BIRMINGHAM WILL BE ONE OF THE CLOSEST IN STATES FOOT BALL ANNALS.

University, November 13.-tSpeclal. )- The brief interval of only five days sep arates Auburn and Alabama from getting together in what promises to be the greatest game that is to be fought out on Alabama dirt this year. It is not only the most interesting game to be played in Alabama this year. but 1t is also going to be the closest fought battle that rep resentatives of the two Alabama state institutions have ever engaged in, un- less all signs are misleading. Both teams are about the same weight and both have Yale coaches. It will be a case of Greek against Greek when these machines clash in their annual contest at West End on Saturday. The following are the weights and something about the style of the Alabama players:
 Burks, left halfback and captain, weighs about 166 pounds. He is fast, nervy player, very quick to take his openings, and fighter for every inch. He is a dangerous man in an open field, as his terrific speed makes him hard one to bring down. If he has fault it is a ten- dency to leave his interference too soon. His defensive work exeels anything he has put up heretofore.
 Ward, at right half or fulback is A. heavy. consistent ground gainer. with happy way of helping his teammates when they carry the ball. He has a good stiff arm, keeps his feet well and his 1SO pounds make him a tower of strength on defence.
 Sturdevant, who will probably play the other back, is light, but hits the line low and hard His defence is his strong point.
 Smith at quarter or half is a hard working, nervy little player. He handles punts well in the back field and will do the kicking for Alabama.
 Moody at center is a light but very aggressive player. He passes the ball well and for center Is very quick on his feet.
 Sims at left guard weighs 1s5. and though a green man. has learned the game very rapidly. He is a trihe too as he Is in superb condition
 McDaniels, right guard is an old player. and though very light, can usu- ally be depended upon. He is not bril- liant, but plays a very consistent, steady game.
 Nell, at left tackle. is another new man. He has an ideal build for the tackle position, but as yet has not learned how to use his bulk to advantage. He should do well Saturday, however, for his game has shown steady advance since the start.
 Sartain, at right tackle weighs 1s5 and is also built well for the place. He is fast on his feet and this is his second year on the team. He lacks aggressives ness only to make him first class tackle.
 Lanier at left end, is light. but plucky little man, with the sort of nerve football men are made of. He Is fast under punts and wears himself out in trying to do the work of two or three.
 Lewis, at right end. is an experienced man, who can play fine ball when the spirit moves him. He Is cratic, but will no doubt come to time for the Auburn game.

WILLMAR WINS FROM REDWOOD
Both Sides of Immigration Question
Splendidly Upheld.
Special to The Journal.

Special to The journal.
Redwood Falls, Mimi, Jan. 14.-Three
representatives of the Willmar high
sc hool came down yesterday to battle
with the debating team Of Redwood
Falls, and walked off with the honors.
M. V. Jenness, Victor Knutson and Wal
lace II. Martin, coached by Superintend:
ent z. G. Towing, were the trio, and
they ably sustained the affirmative of
the question. Resolved, That the pol
icy Of reducing further immigration to
the United States is practicable and
should be Adopted
The three Redwood students who ar
gued for continuance Of the present
open door to foreigners were Ernest
Carpenter, Miss Ida Crooks and Chris
Neuenschwander.
The debate was held in the Method
list church, and was, listened to by a
large and interested audience. Wal
lace Martin led the debate for Willmar
contending that the United States nc
longer needed immigration. Conditions
had changed. No longer are great areas
Of fertile land to be improved, as was
! the case some: years ago, and the immi
grafton of today to the cities increases
the slum element. r
Ernest Carpenter replied, showing
that the experience of the past showed
the benefit Of inviting immigration. The
progressive races Of today were tn
product of migratory people. HI
also contended that the development Of
northern states as compared with tn,
! south was largely due to the fact thai

STATE TO run
FREE BUREAUS
COMMISSIONERS ADVOCATE EN-
PLOYMENT BUREAU BILL.
outgoing Commissioner Will Urge It
in His Report, and Bill Will Soon
Be introduced Labor Movement to
Be Directed from the Large Centers
of the State.

Free employment bureas in the large
cities of Minnesota will be provided
for in bill soon to be introduced in
the legislature. This project has been
a hobby with John O'Donnell, the re-
firing labor commissioner, and he will
urge the new departure. Tt is also ia
vored by w. H. Williams, the new labor
commissioner. The intention is to es-
tablish at least three, and ppsIbly six,
bureaus, which will be handled in con:
cert under the state labor bureau. They
will work chiefly to direct the move
ment to the harvest fields and lumber
camps. No fee will be charged the
laborers or the. employers. Men who
are unable to pay the. fees required by
the private agencies will be benefited
especially, and the free bureau will
thus reach many more laborers.
The intention is to have one bureau
in Minneapolis, one in st. Paul, one
in Duluth, one in Brainerd or Crooks
ton and one in Winona or Mankato.
w. H. Williams will succeed John
O'Donnell as head Of the bureau or
Jan. 81. The new commissioner is al
ready getting familiar with his work
and has a temporary office on the
ground floor of the capitol.

ORGANIZE NEW CHORUS
THREE HUNDRED VOICES TO BE
HEARD AT DEDICATION OF THE
AUDITORIUM.

Delay in the completion of the new
auditorium has resulted in the forma-
nation of special chorus of some 300
voices for use in connection with the
dedicatory exercises. Willard Patten is
the director.
Another change in the dedication pro-
gram will result in the appearance of
the Apollo club the opening night, the
new chorus the second night and the
Danz Symphony orchestra both even
ings. -.
Explanation of the statement on the
program Of the Philharmonic club at
the Christmas production Of the Mes
siah, - that the club and the Minneapo-
lis Symphony orchestra would not take
part in the dedication lies in the fact
that the expense Of utilizing the Min
neapOlis Symphony orchestra is practl-
cally prohibitive to such arrangement.
A.. M. Shuey, director of the dedica-
tion concerts, is deeply disappointed at
this turn of affairs, while the Phllhar-
monte club has had to give up its cher
ished plan of participating, in connec-
ton with its orchestra, in the exercises
Of the, opening night.
Had the auditorium been finished in
December, as was expected, thereby en-
abling the Philharmonic club and the
! Minneapolis Symphony orchestra to
carry out its season Is program of con-
cefts, the arrangement contemplated as
to the opening night would have been a
practical one, but, owing to the disar'
arrangement Of the club s season SEIZED
ule, and the expense of maintaining the
orchestra, together with the Interrupt
ton of the clubs usual receipts, the
change of program as above stated has
been made necessary, namely, to form
new chorus and orchestra and advance
the Apollo concert to the first night.
| Proceeds Of both concerts will be ap
piled on the cost Of the magnificent new
organ, which will be first played by M
| Dethier. .,

DIVES MUST CLEAR OUT

The city administration has made the

the great bulk Of immigration to this
country settled in the north. Finally,
immigration from southern Europe was
not vicious, but furnished an artistic
element much needed in our national
character.
: M V. Jenness, the second speaker for
Willmar, displayed a chart showing the
increase in immigration from southern
Europe, and assaulted the, policy Of the
hordes of undesirable persons for the
slums. The immigrants Of today are
not home builders, as were the northern
Europeans of past years.
Ida Crooks was the clearest and most
self-possessed of either team. She
made strong argument defending the
character Of the Italians and Russians
coming to our shores, and read statistics
showing that the - per cent foreign
"a per cent Of the total property. The
need of more immigration in the south
ern states was shown by the prevalence
Of child labor in factories.
Victor Knutson, little whirlwind
talker, used charts showing illiteracy
and the large per cent of criminals OF
foreign birth in our present population
with much effect. Christ Neuen
schwander, the last speaker argued that

desirable element from coming tc
America, and that those who passed 8
stringent examination at our ports were
the best and most progressive of Their
class. He contended that the laws only
needed occasional modification ano
strict enforcement.
The affirmative excelled in readiness
and their rapid fire tended to confuse
the Redwood 5debaters except Mis-
Crooks. The judges gave the decision
to Willmar by vote Of 2 to l.. The
Redwood debaters had plenty Of am
munition, but failed to use it as effect
lively as their opponents. g

EDWARD SCHERER.

evils could not be charged, up to for
eigners, but to active Americans.
Henry Swanson then closed the direct
debate for the affirmative. He de-
scribed the effect immigration had upon
the political life and quoted many au-
thorities to prove his position. He re-
ferred to the dangers Of the slums upon
politics, and said the election of a
president might depend upon one state
| and the electoral vote in that state
upon one city and that city upon one
Stun ward. He declared the effect on
| labor was to induce competition and q
consequent lowering of the wage scale,
creased the number of days Of labor
had been reduced in most instances,
especially where the undesirable immi-
grants were employed.
Edward, sherer, then closed the de-
bate for the negative, reviewing the ar
grments of his colleagues very briefly.
He advocated bureaus for caring for
immigrants and thought thru them no
more stringent laws than at present
would be required. He denied the con-
gestion of3immigrants in cities or that
they were the cause Of the slums, quot
ing Jane Addams of Hull House fame
as authority. Mr.. Sherer made a strong
point in saying that the public schools
are doing great work in assimilat-
ing and making citizens of the immi-
grants.
Rebuttal and Decision.
This closed the direct debate and
the rebuttal was opened by Mr.. Pfeiffe1
for the Winona team, followed by Mr.
Hayes for Albert Lea. Edward Shere1
was the next speaker for the visitors
and Miss Lampert did herself proud fol
the home trio. Mr. Blume closed fol-
the negative and Mr.. Swanson for the
affirmative, and in. each case some ex
cellent. points we've made, the asser
ton of the negative that the affirma
tive was advocating complete exclusion
being denied by the advocates Of re-
striction: Many of the points made
by the direct debates were controversial

quence. .''.''.....' ..'.''.r

appropriation. The question came up
from Cottonwood county, where the
