CHICAGO MAN GETS PLACE| | Walter L. Fisher, Vice President of the National Conservation Associa: tion and a Friend of Pinchot, Named to Fill the Vacancy—Accusers of Re- tiring Secretary Roundly Scored by Chief Executive. ‘Washington, March 8—Richard A. Ballinger’s resignation as secretary ot the interior, dated Jan. 19 last, has| been accepted by President Taft and Walter L. Iisher of Chicago appoint- ed as his successor, his commission being signed immediately by the pres- ident.. Mr. Fisher will take office within a few days. Secretary Ballinger tendered his Tesignation in a letter on Jan. 19, bas-| ing it entirely upon the condition of his health. The president replied at once, expressing his confidence in Sec- retary Ballinger, his reluctance to ac- cept his resignation and requested the secretary to remain in office until the close of the sesslon of congress. Im- mediately upon the adjournment of congress Secretary Ballinger renewed his request that he be relieved at a date suiting the president’s conven- ience, but immediately if possible. President Taft, in a letter, formally accepted the resignation. The correspondence between the president and the secretary is not.vol- uminous, but sets forth beyond gues- tion the confidence which Mr. Taft has reposed in Mr. Ballinger throughout the long siege and the indignation with which he has viewed the attacks upon the secretary’s personal and offi- cial integrity. High Praise for Ballinger. | “I have had the fullest opportunity,” the president says in his letter ac- cepting the resignation, “to know you, to know your standards of service to the government and the public, to know your motives, to know how you have administered your office and to know the motives of those who have| assailed you. | “I do not hesitate to say that you| bave been the object of one of the| most unscrupulous conspiracies for the defamation of character that his- tory can show.” And in the conclusion of his letter fiber of my nature rebels against- such hypocrisy (referring to the attacks upon Ballinger’s character) and merves me to fight such a combination and such methods to the bitter end, lest success in this instance may form | a demoralizing precedent. i “But personal consideration for you and yours makes me feel that I have no right to ask you for a further sacrifice” . ety The president goes on to deciare it evident that he has been himself the ulumate object of the attack and says that to insist upon Mr. Ballinger’s re- maining in office “with the prospects of further efforts against you, is sel- fishly to impose on you more of a bur- den than T ought to impose.” FISHER IS A PROGRESSIVE New Secretary of Interior Staunch Conservatidnist, Chicago, March 8—Walter Lowrie Fisher, newly appointed secretary of | the interior, has been one ot Gifford Pinchot’s staunchest supporters in the matter of the conservation of natural resources. He was president of the Conservation League of America and is now vice president of the’National Conservation association, which sue- ceeded the league, and of which Mr. Pinchot is president. Next July on Independence day Mr. Fisher will be forty-nine years of age. He was born at Wheeling, W. Va., and received his education at the Marietta (0.) college and the Hanover (Ind.) college. He was admitted to the bar twenty-three years ago and has since been in practice at Chicago. He has always taken a deep and ac- tive interest in conservation and has been identified with the so called re- form wing of the Republican party.
