ARCHIVES OF iowa
System in Use Is Approved by
Historical Authorities.
PAPER IS READ IN chIckG0
Showed That System In Use In diva
Follows the Sound Principle pf
Classifying the Archives WIFI
Respect to Origin.

Des Moines.-The public archives"
lished by the historical department,
the leading article Is paper by Ethel
Virtue after an investigation Of the
science Of administration Of public
| archives which she made owing to
having the responsibility of indeying
the public archives of Iowa. She read
| the paper at the conference of arch
twists held during the last meeting OF
| the American Historical association
at Chicago.
Victor Hugo Paltsits, chairman OF
the public archives commission OF
the American Historical association,
says with regard to the work being
done in Iowa:
Knowing Of the good work that 10
being done for the archives of Iowa
by the historical department of the
state, the commission invited Miss
Ethel B. Virtue to present paper
on the principles Of Classification
or Archives" She showed that the
system in use in Iowa follows the
sound principle of classifying the
archives with respect to their origin,
as advocated and practiced by the
best archivists OF Europe, where the
business of arranging, cataloguing
and administering public archives is
an accepted profession of the highest
order"
"They present four classifications
OF the records. The first, or primary
classification provides for the separa-
ton Of state and local archives. Thus
far Iowa has no local records in the
files OF her archives department. A
few private papers have been over
looked by stale officers and left with
the official files but no account OF
these has been taken in the classifi-
cation.
"The second or formal classified
tion makes the distinction between
printed and manuscript records Prac.
tically no printed archives are re-
tanned in this department. There are
few exceptions In the case OF mill
tary orders in the governors office
and some printed insurance schedules
in the auditors Office. These are Ill
ed side by side with the manuscript
records.
"The historical classification de-
fines the three distinct periods in the
history of Iowa; period of the terri
tory; period of the first constitution
and period Of the second constitution.
THE fourth or administrative out
line practically combines the three
classifications."
e. r. HARLAN. curator Of the his
torical department Ia an editorial
note explains that the doubtful point
Of responsibility for the public arch
ives has been cleared up by law
passed by the Thirty-sixth general
assembly. This law, effective July l.
1915, takes all authority over the
archives away from the executive
council and places 1t with the his
torical department.
