ARRANGING FOR A DEBATE.

Arrangements are being made for
another debate between Miss Cannon S
and Mr.. Selden's American history
classes. Representatives chosen from
these respective rooms met in a
very successful contest not long ago.
Justified in Taxing Her Colonies?" Mr..
Selden's class was awarded the decis-
ion, it having the affirmative side of
the question. The question to be dis
cussed at the coming debate has not
yet been announced but it is quite
likely that it will deal with slavery be-
fore the Civil war.

Dickinson the country has been at
