...second inning was open for Amherst with a base hit by Stuart, who stole second, reached third on a wild throw by Nichols, and came home on Marble's put out. Willard scored a run for Harvard by making a tremendous drive to right field for three bases. The next three men at the bat struck out, but Willard scored on a wild pitch. Neither nine scored in the third inning, though flarris sent a hot liner to centre field, which was caught in fine form by Jones; while, for Harvard, Winslow made a clean hit, only to be left...
...came home on an error of Tirrel. Allen hit to Tirrel, who threw wild to the home plate to cut off Nichols, allowing Allen to reach second, whence he was brought home by Willard, who duplicated his hit of the second inning by sending a beautiful fiy to right field, on which he reached third.

Here, too, it would seem that the balance of argument must be on the side of college...
Taxation for encouraging trade may be right, but is a tariff the best mode of imposing such taxation? Protective tariffs are to give certain profits to a certain class of producers, to compensate for certain losses. Now, as a rule, no tax is levied by Congress without giving the definite amount and purpose; but the matter of tariffs is an exception. Taxes levied for aiding manufacture are mixed up with other government expenses. Yet the people have a right to know all the particulars of taxation, "how much and what for." All national expenditures and taxes should be purely open...
