A class Of announcements appearing in
the newspapers almost daily prompts the
mention of one of the greatest but least ap-
preciated-the prostitution of public patron

The average American would Indignantly
resent any effort to improperly influence him
which he would recognize as such. but
would regard an assignment of official duty
of almost any character as only natural
and deserved recognition of his ability and
fitness for the public Service, for which he
as a man Of honor should feel duly CRATE
full and stand ready to repay in kind.
knowledge of these facts makes towards
of public men. Unless they are In favor
with the appointing power they fear they
may be out of favor with their constituents
For an INSCRIPTIONS executive, If we
should ever be so unfortunate as to have
one. this is a dangerous weapon with which
to enforce his will on not only unwilling
members of other departments of the gov
eminent, but upon all who make public
sentiment. Fear on the one hand and hope
Of favor on the other combine to aid his
purposes.
This power has been recently greatly aug
mented and is all the time growing.
The great majority of public servants are
not only appointed in the first instance. but
they hold their places subject to removal.
The army itself is scarcely under more COM
plete control. They would make a tremen-
dous and dangerous factor in any contest
that an ambitious President might make to
continue himself in office or to dictate and
