...that a student may fit himself without especial effort for Yale and the other colleges in three years, while a man to enter Harvard must remain another year, although there are a number of cases where men by dint of assiduous application have passed the necessary examinations at the end of the Middle year-that is, a three years residence. Thus many men in order to gain a class go to other colleges solely on this account; and not, as it has been stated with utter falsity, that Harvard has lost its prestige in the eyes of the faculty...

Many strong arguments were presented in favor of the system, and but little opposition encountered. The various advantages of the cable over the electric and elevated systems were shown. The cable system can be operated at all seasons of the year, while the electric will not work in winter; the elevated system, by darkening the streets and stores in addition to making it disagreeable for second story dwellers, decreased the value of real...
