they are to any other fact, dis
covery, or method used by the
willy and ambitious to obtain a
selfish purpose, or to gain the
emoluments, deservedly or unde-

office. The politician and the
means by which he seeks a COW

they were a hundred years ago;
and in the nature of things, so
will they ever remain the same.
