the interference of mischief max
ing aspirants for public notoriety
than to any real antagonism be-

1t is true that Mr.. Ballinger is
under suspicion and Mr.. Pinchot
is not. But Mr.. Ballinger has
courted and demanded a full in
vestigation of his acts. 1t is no
more than fair that congress
should give him this. If Mr..
Ballinger has been maligned, he
should have full reparation. If
he is not a genuine conserva-
zionist, it will appear. In any
event, President Taft, in order to
accomplish anything on conser-
walton, must have harmony of
effort and mutual confidence
among his subc1dinates.

the play in each one will be far above
the average.
Arrangements have been made for
the friends of the club members to
witness the games from points of van
