...cannot here discuss the subsequent events, which almost seem to have shattered the many ties of friendship which have hitherto bound us to "Fair Harvard." It had been the intention of Columbia to say nothing whatever in regard to the controversy through the press, and it was almost the unanimous opinion of the students that, owing to the well known fairness of Harvard students in general, the whole matter would be settled to the satisfaction of all parties, and that Columbia and Harvard would still continue on their former footing of friendliness. The endeavor, however, of the Harvard Boat Club...
...fair trial, has been put in order, well kept and carefully run, and the result is, that it is not a success. It has proved very unreliable, sometimes being out of use for several days at a time. I mention this, so that men may be prepared to discuss the matter at the meeting. The stay at New London was prolonged almost a week beyond the usual time, and hence the expense was nearly doubled, rising from about $600.00, as an average, to a little over $1,000.00.

There is enough which concerns us all, to make at least one department of our publications reach farther than our own campus confines." The growth of such a feeling is, we think, coming naturally in the course of events. Inter-collegiate sports, races and meetings...
...integrity and patriotism, which now appear to be so freely doubted, and to endeavor in some measure to stem the tide of demagogism that is rolling over the land? The Harvard Union might perform this function for this community, and might find this a very interesting question to discuss at some future meeting. Doubtless those in the university who approve of Mr. Lowell's course would be glad of such an opportunity as this or some similar one for expressing their sentiments in the matter...
