...held so many or so wildly enthusiastic spectators; the return of the victors through the avenue on a coach called out the flutter of banners and choruses of cheers from the windows and balconies and pavements, and the newspaper press sent out a half dozen extras to announce the result. And when we consider the character of the attendants upon the game, it is certainly suggestive of its immense power over the people-and the people who both make and reflect public opinion...
