...sharp eye is kept on its development. It holds potentialities that on the whole bode no good to the country. It is the formal declaration of class war in America; and we have seen what class war means wherever it has been waged. But there is still time to spike the guns of the new party.

Rotch and Glidden surpass the other high jumpers, though no great heights have been cleared, on account of the poor condition of the take...
