...opening the debate for the affirmative S. Feingold '07 explained that the revenue in France was derived from two sources,--direct and indirect taxes. The indirect taxes act as a burden upon the poor. A. Prussian '08, the second speaker for the affirmative, pointed out that direct taxes were not only unjust to the individual but were unsatisfactory to the government, because they are insufficient for the regular administration and inflexible in a government emergency. The revenue must then be increased, and the way to increase it is by an income tax. B. S. Pouzzner '09, the last speaker...
...muff of Jube's throw, and after Dexter had gone out, scored on Palmer's second error, on which Simons reached first. He stole second but was left. Dana and Pritchett going out in order.

In the first Annapolis game, Hartford's work was very promising, and it appears as though he is recovering from the nervousness which made him ineffective for University baseball last year...
...Grays, where no effectual attempt has been made to interest the College authorities in the matter. In the Senior dormitories, the conditions are peculiar and we doubt whether common-rooms are necessary. However that may be, we do feel that the occupants of Matthews and Grays have showed poor spirit and lack of enterprise in pushing an innovation which has not only proved successful in other buildings, but also an innovation which the Regent and other College officers have sought to encourage. We have spoken of the undeniable failure of the common-room in one building, and a partial explanation...
