...editorial on "hazing" in the Sunday Herald is in one sense encouraging. It shows that the drift of public sentiment in such matters is towards a greater reasonableness and fairness of judgment in the affairs of college students, and away from prejudice and summary condemnations. In this particular the effect of the expression of such liberal and tolerant views by the public press can do little but good.

...sins of sectional prejudice and local conceit. That same native vigor and rude energy of style which we found so remarkable in the case of the Review, is equally striking in the case of the Chronicle: therefore we have been led to connect, after the fashion of cause and effect, this mental malady (so characterized by illusion and belligerency), with the spasmodic intensity of style which pervades these articles...
