It was written as an autograph for con-

ment:
esPublic offices should be created and
conducted exclusively for the benefit OF
those who do not fill them,
That is the essence of genuine demo-
cratic government in an epigram which
NAV easily be committed to memory. Ii
ought to be inscribed on tie walls OF
every legislative hall and every Office OF
administration.
A great part Of all the evils which
afiict our country spring from an idea
which is the opposite of this one-name-
". that public offices are created and
should be conducted exclusively for the
benefit of those who FIJI them. The opin-
ion NAV not often be avowed in these

upou which rheyact while holding Offices.
