Usage:

...strongly urge the class, then, to discuss as much as it likes, the worth of its men. Such a course would end in the choice of the best possible men. And, on the other hand, we strongly protest against this ungentlemanly way of organizing and deciding upon tickets in the middle of the junior year. It can result only in arousing ill-feeling and bitter distrust in the class, and in electing class-day officers who may be unsuitable in every...

...rule which we shall not attempt to criticize; but we suspect that, if our interpretation is correct, it will bring about many perplexing cases.

...senior class election passed off with unusual quiet and rapidity. Seemingly there was not a hitch, but, as the evening went on, it became evident that the elections were pre-arranged and that a kind of "machine" was in operation. We wish to protest against this kind of thing in a Harvard class day election; it is not fitting to the dignity of the occasion and moreover does not allow of a free expression of opinion. It is highly improper for a group of men to carry on a systematic canvass, to hold caucusses and make agreements for mutual benefit...
