floor interrupted at times the flood of
oratory. The University band opened
the program with two selections that
were heartily applauded by the audi
ence. (Miancellor Avery presided, attri
Introduced the speakers in turn. The
two teams occupied tables at each end
of the platform. The Nebraska team
was barricaded behind a double row
of huge volumes, to which they re
ferred often, quoting many more au
thorities than their opponents.
Summary of Debate.
II. G. Hewitt opened the debate by
explaining the question and showing
that the bunk-house, transient, money-
I seeking Immigrants now flooding the
country, are undesirable as citizens.
Dean Campbell, a slender, breezy
young man with pleasing delivery,
stated the negative side of the ques
tion, and showed that it was just this
type of man that was needed to per
form the hard labor of the, country,
that In some trades he did as much
as nlneteen-twentieths of the work.
Reed B. Dawson, a forceful and pow
erful speaker, attacked the question
from the standpoint of labor, showing
the harmful effect of the immigrant
upon labor conditions; lowering wages
and striking at the trade's union. His
opponent, Donald Pomeroy, spoke of
the eagerness of the foreigner to learn
and stated that they could acquire
knowledge more readily than the av
erage American. "Literacy," lie said,
"is no test of a mart's character."
Harold l'rince closed the atllrma
five's side of the question by proving
that the literacy test would affect only
the unskilled, the transient and the
illiterate, that it was a test easy to
enforce and hard to eade, and that
it was the only method of solving the
problem of restriction. Harvey Hos
hour, an earnest though somewhat
dramatic speaker, closed the question
tor Minnesota by arguing for internal
Improvement of labor conditions, and
showing that the literacy test was
both arbitrary and unfair.
The rebuttal was short and snappy,
ca h team hurling quotation after quo
tation in support of their theories. In
side of a few moments after the last
rebuttal the judges' decision had been
handed to Chancellor Avery and lie
annouiK ed the result to the audiein e,
who lieered loudlv and crowded the
platlorm to congratulate the winners
Perhaps too mm li credit cannot be
gien to Prolessor logg, who worked
unceasingly to perfect the team not
in lore e ol argument alone, but in elo
ution as well, st c uring by voice in
flection and the careful annum iation
o! words, a delivery far superior to
that ol their opponents.
