...Ross and Davis. If they can learn to cope with such men as these, they will out-play Princeton. As for the disgrace of being beaten by these local clubs, the college is concerned only about winning the college championship from Princeton, and will not mind a few defeats like Saturday's, endured for the sake of getting practice...
...would call the attention of the college to the fact that all nines intending to contest for the CRIMSON cups must have their entries in the box at Leavitt and Peirces before 9.30 this evening. It is certainly seldom enough that opportunity is offered for anything like a systematized contest between nines which represent the, so to speak, "non-professional" ball players of the University.

...questionable if the nine gets benefit enough from practice games with weak nines, like the team against which it played last Saturday, to repay the trouble incurred by the management in arranging the matches.

The editors whose enterprise has brought about this change, and the college which is to receive...
...given a stimulus to native industry such as no other tariff has ever done. It cannot be denied that the country has prospered under it, but it is another thing to assert that there would not have been the same prosperity without it. Protectionists tell us that countries like Ireland, Turkey and Portugal, have failed to prosper on account of free trade, but they neglect to speak of the real causes which have operated to bring about this unfortunate state of affairs. The tariff has not proved a protection against commercial crises; for during eleven out of twenty-five years...
