...private property, but preserves the competitive system. In Germany the passage of so many of Bismarck's governmental monopoly schemes has shown the power of state socialism there. The perfect organization of the German army has aided the growth of socialistic schemes, for acquiescence to authority has become a part of the German mind. In England, however, socialism is democratic; it has grown up from experience. Although Englishmen have always objected to state interference, yet they have fallen into ideas that border very closely on state control of railroads and other public enterprises. English professors and writers all show...
With all its peculiarities, American college journalism mirrors with surprising truthfulness the states of feeling, we had almost said the degrees of civilization, prevailing in the several parts of our broad land, The critical reader will easily detect differences in the tone of the kindred publications of our eastern colleges; between North, South, and West, the gulf is too wide for the most casual reader to overlook.

...Yale News for Dec. 1 devotes by far the larger part of its first page to "clippings" from the Princetonian's report of the Yale Princeton game, and enlivens these clippings with characteristic comments. We reprint in another column one of the News' comments, and think that it will be enough to convey to Harvard readers the general feeling that just at present pervades the Yale mind. That the enthusiasm which the Princetonian naturally displayed in its report, should be extremely unpleasant to Yale readers, is hardly surprising. While we do not say that the Princetonian showed perfect taste...
