Important Lines Of inquiry.
''The great problem of municipal govern
ment, arousing yearly closer public atten-
ton and investigation, and coming home
as II does. to the interest and the pocket of
every citizen, may well enlist our inquiry
A comparative view of our own city and
District administration. under the peculiar
and unique form of government provided
by Congress. with that of other cities where
universal suffrage divides with legislative
control the local government, might elicit
facts of great value. AS experience has
been styled the mother of all the sciences,
and history is but an aggregation of expe-
riences, ii becomes us to make use of all
means of enlightenment at Our command to
compare the relative merits OF every sys-
TEN and to suggest possible improvements.
THE methods of the historical investigator
should involve the highess intelligence, the
most careful and thorough research, the
keenest sitting of evidence and authorities
a zeal for information that is limitless and
q patience that Is inexhaustibie. To distrust
every statement that is unsupported by COL
lateral testimony should be his instructive
and habitual mood of mind The method of
the careless writer Is TO take everything for
granted: the method of the true historian is
to take nothing for granted. To no man, to
no writer, is the calm judicial temper more
indispensable than to me historian To be
faithful to his high office ne must iBdis-
pensabiy diabuse his mind of predictions,
prejudices and the besetting conceit OF opin-
ion. His only business is to follow the
truth, no matter where or how far from his
preeonceived judgments it may lead him.
fhe absolute Importance of close scrutiny
or authorities of distrust of all sources of
Information, except original ones, will be-
come apparent TO any one who will carefully
trace any narrative of occurrences in COM
mon life from hand to hand, and see how
wofuily IL becomes distorted in the changes
1t undergoes. Or let any one compare the
conflicting evidence of eyewitnesses OF the
same facts in any court of justice where
absolutely opposite and irreconcilable state
ments of the same occurrence are made
under oath by persons of apparently equal
candor and means of inforIas tioa. And IL
