Even if one believes that the ends justified the means, those who today assert that the seizure produced worth-while results might realize that the costs themselves were too high. These results, insofar as they are due to force, derive at least as much from the shock of the bust as from that of the seizure. In the wake of these shocks, what put the place together again and made it move forward was a generalized and passionate display of the good uses of reason: colloquia, meetings, discussion, negotiations, most of which proved constructive and orderly. Surely the price paid...

But they tell almost nothing about what was happening inside University Hall...

...just as well, perhaps. San Isidro was such a bust that scalpers outside the Plaza Monumental were hustling one another. Could you comprehend, Papa, that this Chartres of the taurine religion was filled only once in 16 days, and then only because three top matadors were crowded together in undignified fashion on the program? Other days, sprinkles of faithful filled the arena instead, with strident three-syllable screams of "Novillero!" (Novice) hurled at inept performers. Or, in ultimate insult, they turned their backs on the orange sand to wave their tickets in rage at the corrida president...
