1t is a rare thing that men Of wealth
can be induced to make such sacrifices
for the good Of the State.

calibre of Mr. du Pont could look after

The present system of giving office to
men who are totally unfit to fill and tc
repay them for some party work which
they have done (some of which is of ar
unsavory nature) does not bid far tc
lower the expenses, but on the Other
hand they will go higher and higher un-
til the system is changed and men are
appointed to office for merit alone.
