WILL DEBATE RAILROAD QUESTION
UNIVERSITY OF IDAHO TEAM
WILL COME TO WALLA WAL
LA IN APRIL.

Word was received by the president
of the Whitman debate council this
morning from the University of Idaho
that she would accept Whitman's pro-
position to debate the railway rate
question. The matter of whether the
debate would be held this year has
been hanging fire for some time, owing
to Idahos insistence that the contract
be suspended this year so that she be
allowed to submit the question for dis
cussiOn. Her reason for this was that
she mad so many debates on hand that
she wanted to debate a question dis
cussed with some other school. Whit
man felt this would place her at a dis
advantage, so refused the request
Finally compromise was arranged by
the two debate councils to debate the
railroad question which Whitman will
debate this winter with Pacific and
Idaho with Oregon university and
Washington university. This seemed
to place both teams on the same foot
ing and Idaho accepted the Whitman
offer.

HOME FOR VETERANS AND WIDOW?
FUNDS COMING AT RAPID RATE
AND MUCH INTEREST
SHO Nm.

NEW YORK, N. Y, Jan. 20-The
members Of the recently organized
War Veterans and Widows Home as
ISOLATION will mold their second meet
ing this afternoon at the residence of
the president, Mrs. G. L. Morehouse.
1t had originally been proposed to hold
the meeting in the evening, to enable
the men interested in the plan to attend
the meeting, but some of the veterans
pointed out that the movement would
depend almost altogether upon the
good will and patriotism of the women,
for whom it would be easier to attend
meeting in the afternoon than in the
evening. 1t is proposed to incorporate
the society as a state organization and
to present a petition to the mayor and
the board of aldermen. for the use of
the Jumal Mansion as a soldiers nome.
A great deal of interest is manifested
In the plan and funds are coming in
from all directions in a highly salts
factory manner. 1t is expected that
several prominent war veterans will
attend the meeting this afternoon and
will deliver short addresses in favor Of
the movement.
