In looking over the list of lectures to be given this year to students of the university, we regret to see that no arrangements have been made by the powers that be for lectures in Political Economy, except for those on Free Trade and Protection. Now, last year, students taking Political Economy, and especially members of the elementary course, Political Economy 1, derived great pleasure and profit from the lectures given under the auspices of the Finance Club. The lecture by Mr. Edward Atkinson on the subject, "What makes the Rate of Wages," and that by Mr. Gamaliel Bradford, on "Political Economy as a College Study," were especially interesting and valuable to the large number of beginners in the study of Political Economy. Why could not a few lectures on important questions of the day in Political Science be given this year by prominent economists? Boston is very near us, and numbers among its citizens some of the leading authorities in economical matters in this country, as, for example, Gen. Francis A. Walker, Mr. Atkinson and Mr. Bradford. If any one of these gentlemen could be induced to deliver one or more lectures at Harvard, we feel sure that there would be deep gratitude felt on the part of the students.
