William Reavis of Hood River, son OF
D. B. Reavis of enterprise, re Gently
sold his 80 acre tract for $25, ZOO.
There are % acres of yhe place set to
commercial apples, says the Hood River
Newsletter in speaking of the deal and
further states chat Mr.. Reavis had one
of the finest places in that district, he
thoroughly understanding the science
of farming. 1t seems Mrs. Reavis listed
the property with Portland agency
unknown to her husband, more as an
experiment than anything else. But in
few days Portland WON an was
down to look at the place and insisted
he put price on the entire 80 acres
though he had intended selling only
half of it. He said $25, 900 thinking the
amount prohibitive but she closed with
out further question. Mr.. Reavis viii
remain on the farm until next Novem

VICTORIOUS OVER PENDLETON
ON r. R. OWNERSHIP QUESTION

"Resolved, That the Government
Should Own and Operate the Railroads
of the United States" !
Mr.. Holmes put up strong srgu-
ment and drove each point home in
cool, matter-of-fact way that told heav-
lily for his side He stated the three
propositions his side would prove, and
rapidly but clearly showed the menace
to the country by the great power held
by seven men who own or control
three -fourths of the railroads of the
United States.
Orviile Reeves, leader for Pendleton,
was evidently not at his best, for his
argument was weakened by his delivery.
He gave the cue OF the negative as gov
ernment control
The stress that would be laid by PEN
dleton on regulation had been ceverly
anticipated az shown by Miss Eula
Forsythe's speech in which that issue
was met at every point, and its fallacy
shown up. Miss .Forsythe handled a
mighty bunch of figures without a
skip or a halt, and sustained this
hardest part of debate in splendid
fashion.
Arthur Means hadla lot of good, solid
argument to unload, large part of il
read from books, and everyone knows
it is high praise when it is said his
delivery and diction were so good thai
he held the closest attention of the
audience even while reading.
Miss Amy Olmsted recapitulated the
many points made by her associates
introduced new matter and by he
clear, pleasant voice and rounded
, periods made splendid impression.
Harold Warner had the easiest, mos
effective delivery OF any Of the de
baters. He has the manner and fire Of
natural orator and it is only fair to sa
