As the day appointed for the procession draws near, the lack of interest in the Harvard contingent becomes painfully apparent. Scarcely enough men have signed to insure a respectable representation of our university before the public of Boston. In past presidential campaigns, the students have evinced a desire and eagerness to participate in the procession which has made the Harvard delegations one of the main features of the parade; and once we have determined to have our university represented on the night of the 5th prox., it behooves all who can afford the slight expense to don a uniform and augment the number of students in line. Confessedly we do not take part in the parade for political motives but merely for the sake of the enjoyment derived therefrom. Thus, as the choice of procession does not represent the political principles of the college, the representatives of all parties should lay aside partisanship and join in making our part, at least, of the procession a success. As yet no men from the Law School have signified an intention of marching. Since the Law School has always been repesented in the past, we urge the speedy formation of a battalion in that department of the university.
