...still little civilized. This was provided for under the old government by a very limited system of suffrage, but it is proposed by the revolutionists to make the suffrage universal. The leaders of the revolt have treated the capital in a very partial manner, and there is great danger that Brazil will split up into several different governments...
...action, that she should either have postponed the question of a withdrawal, or else have withdrawn from all athletics. The former alternative is now out of the question-the latter only remains, and there is certainly much to commend this. The position in which Harvard stands today is in danger of becoming equivocal.
