Educated broadly in America and in the principal universities of Europe, Mr. Steffens has been well in touch with the new thought of both this country and the continent, and his stand on social and political questions has won for him the title of "anarchist."

The affair at Andover is capable of two evils: first, it places Harvard in a false light with just the men in whose opinions we wish to stand high; namely, prospective Harvard men.
