mcnt of the city. Subserviency to them is tlie indispensable condition of political success, and efficiency ...in the management of voters comes to be treated as the supreme qualification for office. Growing numbers of men perceive that their votes have a cash value ; unofficial agents demand a high price for their services ; some of the oflficials find their vices enormously expen- sive, while others of them are in haste to be rich, and, all this time, contractors are offering large rewards for the privilege of thrusting their hands into the public treasury. Day by day, the corruption grows more pervasive, and its pressure increases, till the covering which has been held over it gives way, and we have an ex- plosion which arrests the attention of the coun- try for a brief period.
