mencement Play Will Be
Given Trials for
Parts.
The Senior classmet Friday in the
old chapel to consider matters relat
ing to the class play that will be given
next June. Since the meeting had been
crlled by request of the class play
committee, It was at once given over
to the committee; for a discussion of
plans.
After much careful investigation as
to material to be found in the class
and a thorough search for plays that
would be appropriate for the occa
sion, the committee, assisted by Miss
Howell, has chosen the play and is
now busily engaged in assigning the
parts to various mejnbers of the (lass.
The assigning of parts will be put on
a competitive basis entirely. All
those who wish to take part in the
play register as some character in the
cast and learn a selection that fairly
represents the character in the play.
These selections will be rehearsed be
fore Miss Howell and the committee,
and the one who shows merit andseeins
beut adapted to the part will receive
the assignment. This plan of choos
ing characters nas been tried in the
university with success, nnd it Is the
one that is followed in the eastern
colleges. A large number have al
ready registered and it is hoped that
more will do so because sharp com
petition will give best rcnults.

Unions Debate Doane
The annual debate between Doane
college and the Union Debating club
of the university occurred Saturday
evening in the ohl chapel. THo ques
tion discussed was "Resolved. Th'at
the tariff gives the trusts an undue ad
vantage." The affirmative was- up
hold by J. M. Paul, I. C. Baldwin, and
O M. Mellck, of the university, while
the negative was supported by Messrs..
Tunia, CharlcHon and Cnrbln, of
Doane college. Mr. Hall of Doane
presided, and Introduced J. M. Paul,
the first speaker on the affirmative.
The speaker said that United States'
manufacturers sell goods cheaper In
foreign countries than at homo and
asked the negative 'to tell why this Is.
Mr. Tunia, for the negative, reviewed
the commercial development of the
United Stntes and said that trusts were
the natural outgrowth of this develop
ment. He said that trusts were formed
years beforo any tariff was known.
Mr Mellck said that the tariff was
Intended to protect home industries.
and not to foster great commercial
concerns. Ho was of the opinion that
the trusts could take tare of them
selves The speaker gave statistics
showing that before the McKlnlcy
tariff bill was passed there were only ,
fifty triiBts in existence; now there are
856.
Mr. Charleson attempted to show
that the tariff was not the mother of
trusts. He said there was no tariff
on oil, and yet one of tho greatest
trusts in existence was tho Standard
Oil company.
Mr. Baldwlnw said we are not argu
ing for free trade. We are in favor of
tariff, but tariff which a.ts as a pro
tection. Mr. Baldwin referred to a
statement of the negative that If the
tariff was removed capital would leave
this country The speaker thought it
unlikely that raw steel would be
shipped to England to be refined and
then shipped ba k again.
Mr. Carbln attempted to show that
tariff resulted in higher wages. He
thought no tnibt wholly American
could effect prices. The gentleman
cited the congressional record as au
thority for most of his argument.
Mr. Paul in concluding for the af
firmative, said: "Anything under the
sun" lould be proved by the congres
sional record, and maintained that the
negative had attempted to prove things
which were not pertinent to the ques
tion. An informal reception was held for
the -visitors after the debate.
