...School, not content with refusing to join the Republican procession, intend to issue an invitation to all undergraduates who hold the same political opinions with them to join the club and march in the Democratic ranks. We hope, however, that the club will not carry out their action; but if they do we hope the invitation will meet with the refusal of the undergraduates. Most of the Law students are voter and attach more political significance to their action than do the undergraduates.

We say this indeed, as a Republican, but we fail to see how one of any political party whatsoever can endorse the action of that club. A college class is in a certain sense a unit, and can be employed as such; but it is only a unit by reason of a unanimity of sentiment and action in its members. When, therefore, the individuals that compose it become divided in opinion, a class...
