were willing to concede to President
Roosevelt.

full credit for the enforcement OF the
Sherman antitrust law and for the
enactment of the railroad law. This

speaking, he said, the last two Repub-
lican administrations marked the most
prosperous period in the countrys his
tory.
Coming to the subject of the tariff,
Mr.. Dalzell referred to the beneficial
effects Of protection and declared that
under It the United States had grown
to be the greatest of manufacturing
nations. He did not believe that there
was any necessity for general re-
vision OF the tariff laws. but that 1T is
well to recognize the claims Of those
who think there should be some re-
vision.
Mr.. Dalzell denied that the recent
panic was a Republican panic or Il
party panic of any kind, but said that
it represented condition not confined
to the United States. but worldwide.

w ouan Debater
At Cornell
COED CHOSEN ON lNTERcoLLE-
GIATE TEAM FOR JOINT
DEBATE.

ITHACA, N. Y, Feb. 81. = Owing
to the opposition of the Columbians
to the presence Of a woman on the
Cornell team, the debate between
Cornell and Columbia tomorrow
night, in which Miss Elizabeth Ellis
worth Cook. Cornell coed, will
take part. is to-day the principal sub
iect OF discussion at this seat of
learning. While the orators Of the
metropolitan university, tin sulliy
mood. have consented to the appear
ance of Miss Cook, the matter is nor
yet SETTLED. Both Cornell and Co
lumbia are members of the Traingu-
lar Debating League, which Includes
Pennsylvania, and it is certain tha.
the matter Of women debaters will
be brought before the next meeting.
While Pennsylvania took a neutral
stand in the matter of Miss Cook. it
is believed that the Quakers will side
with Columbia in asking for rule to
exclude coed debaters. Nor is Cor
nell entirely free from "soreheads"
opposed to equal rights for both
sexes in debate, and Miss Cook has
many enemies in her own camp.
This is the first time since Miss
Gail Laughlin was a speaker, some
ten years ago, that coed has been
chosen member of the intercolle-
glate team. There were ten or doz-
en- men who competed against Miss
Cook, but the committee OF judges
picked her above them. Five pro-
fessors were members of the COM
mittee.
The subject debated. which Is also
the subject for the intercollegiate de-
bate, deals with the Federal licensing
of corporations engaged in Interstate
commerce. Miss Cooks home is in
this city. She has spoken on the '94
memorial debate stage, but has been
hitherto unsuccessful in competition
for intercollegiate contests, She
is now senior in the College Of Law.
She is serious minded, capable
young woman who is used to work.
likes it, and sticks to it. Her career
in speaking and debating is quite re-
markable for girl. In her fresh
man year she went in for speaking
and debate work. She Joined the
Cornell Congress, the general debating
organization Of the university, and
though the atmosphere here Is usual
ly anti-co-ed, she persisted, and was
chosen to compete for the congress
medal. She went out for inter-colle-
gtate teams and failed, but she per-
sisted, and after three years she OBJ
tanned her reward and was chosen to
speak on the "'94 Memorial Stage"
last December. 1t was conceded that
she spoke better than any, girl in re-
cent years. She then competed for
the intercollegiate team that is to
speak against Columbia, and she won.
Miss Cooks pluck and courage are
remarkable. She staid out of college
a year and worked in a New York
once to make money to finish her
course. She is about tive feet in
height, of slender build, has seri-
GUS face of the intellectual type, with
soft, brown eyes and hair, and rath-
er pale face. Her voice is soft and
musical. She Is clever writer as we'll
as a good speaker, In short, sclfcon-
tained, well.balanced. common,sense
girl.
