Apart from the value OF personal
journalism as historical material, l hold
that the desire for personal details with
regard to public men is healthy, rational
and should be yielded to. Statesmen
are not ciphers, without form of blood
or passion. Their utterances and acts
are not pure intellectual secretions. If
you want to know how such and such
an act of weakness or folly is Ineligible
at some crisis in the history of a politi-
clan, you must have learned something
more of the politician than you can get
from the verbatim report of his speeches
or the colorless and dry language Of his
public documents. Behind every speech
and every act there is the mana weak
man or a strong man, high or low, gen.
erous in purpose or base in intrigue
You cannot get rid of this background,
if you want to describe the event accu-
rately. You cannot do SO when you are
listening to the man, though you should
never have to describe him.
