THE HISTORIAN’S PERSPECTIVE. “The historian must he able to see the worth of the work of Conservatives like Coleridge and Disraeli, of Liberals like Green and Bryce, of Radicals like Bentham and Carlyle, of Individualists like Spencer and Seeley, of old-fashioned Socialists like Owen and Kingsley, and of new-fashioned Socialist like Mr Sidey Webb (now Lord Passfield) and Mr Ramsay MacDonald. In order to appreciate Malthus he .must not depreciate Dean Inge; he must leave room for Newman and for Chalmers, as well as for Maitland; he must see why Bagehot believed in a deferential nation as well as why Mr Bertrand Russell would usher in the rule of the Guilds Much patience and much understanding are required to do justice to competing and completing systems of thought.”—Dr Robert H. Murray, Litt.D.
