The history of how history is

schools of historians have adopted in
gathering their material the nature of
the sources used is an interesting
study. The older historians-those
who wrote not romance, but history
followed the official documents and
wrote their stories from the debates
in Parliament, the acts of the Privy
Council the proceedings of the Colonial
Houses OF Burgesses. AS the field of
history has widened the newspaper

one of the most interesting and inn

ArrR1BUT1NG MOTIVES.

Walter B. Sheppard. who lives at
Fort Collins, Colorado. or who was
there at least when he wrote his let
ter, has fallen out with the SPRING
field Republican, because he does not
agree with what it has said recently
on the conservation question. He
makes his assertions with much cir
cumspection and with exhaustive
knowledge of the facts, derived first
hand" Probably he meant to say Eek
hausting," and before we should be
willing TO accept his statement we
not get his knowledge at frst-hand
from Pinchot,N whose champion he
seems to be. Among Pinchot's other
champions are Garfield and CLAWS and
Kerby. Walter says that call the
arabic land has been taken, and much
that has been settled on within the
past ten years will not afford a living
to those who have occupied it." The
Republican points out that only a
week or two ago. the Government re-
stored TO the area open 10 Seltlement
a considerable stretch of public land
with the hone that it might by this
means check to some extent the eXo-
dus of American farmers to Canada
How did 1t happen that with all his
tirst-hand knowledge Walter did not
know that there was such land as this
belonging to the Government that
might be opened to settlement? Is It
possible that Pinchot did not tell him
about 1t?
This, however, Is mot why we are
particularly Interested in what Walter
says. He declares that Pinchots worl,

nAnL1NcEn LET'S ms roor SLIP.

When Secretary Ballinger was on
the stand during the recent investi-
CATION he did not impress the public
as n patient man, willing to be per-
secuted for conscience sake. He struck
out like a man, and If he did not call
his traducers liars II was simply be-
cause he had respect for the commit
tee. He appeared 10 be deeply in
censed, to use chaste term. at what
his enemies had done. and he did not
hesitate to show it,
In a current magazine Secretary
Ballinger justifies the impression
formed when he was telling the COM
mittee how it all happened. He goes
for the muck writers" with gloves off,
and he lands few body blows on
the muck publishers The muck

Secretary Baninger has certainly

more fully than ever, that he has a
| good many things to learn. If he had
been in public service long time. and
If he had read history Alright, he
would have learned that muck battle

man descends from his place and
| hurls the same epithets that his
enemies are using. he cannot expect to
stand above his enemies. and he finds,
sooner or later, that what begins in
a justidable retort ends in indiscrim-
| mate mud singing. The only test of
the victor in such a fight is his ability
10 throw more mud and blacker mud
than his enemy.
Apparently the Secretary is not al
together without appreciation of what
his bout with Pinchot has cost
him, even If he have no idea what
further mud slinging will involve He

This Is true. and it is equally true
that Ballinger is not one of the "iron-
nerved sort. He has given some time
TO the discharge of his duties. but he
has given 50 much more time to
answering his opponents that his
administration is failure. He ought
to see this. and if he want to keep

The New York Times and the Column
