...regard to the Freshman Race, the Springfield Republican persists in what we consider the wrong view. As that paper will undoubtedly have a considerable influence upon public opinion in boating matters for the next month, we will state clearly the opinion of Harvard Freshmen; the Springfield newspaper shall not have this excuse, at any rate, for its partisan course, that it was ignorant of the facts...

We pass by as of little consequence the sneers concerning our "fine-sounding but meaningless" phrases; either the Republican would not find a meaning (which conduct was highly immoral in a paper of such pretensions), or it could not; in which case, either it was stupid, or we admit we were to blame.
