In speaking af the Portland Cony de-
bate the Portland Argus said: The
Augusta boys took the affirmative side
and whrtherNdeep down in their souls
they really believed what they said
or not, they upheld their contention
we'll. In TACT it was the general opin-
ion Of the audience evidenced by what
was heard afterward that for forensic
excellence and for the manner in which
they told their story the visitors had
the palm. But inasmuch as most peo-
pie are on the side of the question as
taken by the local team it is not I'M
natural that the sympathies of the
majority should be with the Portland
side

The Washington herald., 1908-06-19

In the glare Of red fire and amid an
almost continuous shower of sparks from
soaring skyrockets sent up in his honor.
the Republican Presidential nominee was
acclaimed last night as jovial big BIZ,
Taft by a vast crowd. of which the
nucleus was several hundred OF his fell
low-members of the University Club Of
Washington.
The demonstration took place on the
lawn in front of the Taft residence in
X street, and was the outgrowth of plans
quietly laid by the clubmen some days
ago. 1t turned out to be a most ambitious
celebration with the Engineer Rand
from Washington Barracks playing in
spiringly as the official army band of the
Capital. and several thousand citizens
crowding both X and Sixteenth streets
and cheering tumul,uously at sight of
the newly chosen candidate.
Adding the finishing touch in the an
propriateness Of the first home reception
OF the candidate was the presence of
Mrs. Taft and Miss Helen Taft seated
only few feet back Of the head OF the
household and in full view Of the hum
dreds Of cheering people as the Secre-
tary received and acknowledged the
congratulations of his fellow-clubmen
and other friends.
1t was as nearly a typical front

tions Of the Taft urban homestead would
permit on such short notice. And with
Master Charles Taft acting as expert
assistant to the professional in charge
