...prejudice, naval interference, and congressional investigation and imperialism. The former will delight the mass mind; and because of the latter comment from the most intelligent is inevitable. All papers have succumbed. The New York Times printed a complete and candid official naval report of the case and even the Transcript led last night's paper with a follow-up account (duly expurgated...
...chairman of the Tariff Commission, vice Henry Prather Fletcher, resigned. New England's insistent demand for commission representation by a thoroughgoing protectionist brought about the appointment. A Republican now, Mr. O'Brien began life as a low-tariff Democrat. Grover Cleveland plucked him from the Boston Transcript office for a private secretary upon his second presidential nomination in 1892, kept him on at the White House until 1895.

At Harvard, men have come as before, and they have come prepared to spend as before. There has been only a minor decrease in the average standard of living. The storekeepers of Harvard Square are not facing the bleak winter of their colleagues in Boston. For example, one of the music stores reports that its sales of expensive phonograph records is nearly as great as ever, the radio notwithstanding. Men may buy more circumspectly, but still they...
