Individually, the men are in promising condition. Felton, while he has not as yet perfected his control, seems in a fair way to get in shape for the big games, Hitchcock has shown a remarkable development and may be expected to do good work on the mound. The rapid development shown by the less experienced men--Ayres, Tomes, and Gannet,--is decidedly encouraging. If the same calibre of batting is displayed as in the game with Bates, and if the kind of team-work is manifested as was shown in the uphill pull against West Point, then the clean...

...best remedy is a shift of responsibility from the courts to the people. This change might be disastrous if effected by a violent transition. The only reasonable change will be by constant, gradual securing of control over the law. No deification of popular will is implied in the proposition. The decisions of the people cannot be called right until they have been tried, but their will and reason should eventually bring a more democratic, satisfactory government...
