To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Marcy had said that "to the vic- tor belong the spoils of the enemy, " he remarked, " but I never said that the victor should plunder his own camp. " Yet that was the logic of his principle. The hardest fighter should have the most spoils. There is no logic in equal division between him who merely wishes well to the cause and him who fights the battle. If influence is to appoint, the less influence must yield to the greater ; and when a man has not been appointed by reason of his fitness, he mu...st not ask that he be retained on account of his merit. The doctrine of rotation inspffice implies that merit should not be considered. It treats the public service as a huge soup-house, in which needy citizens are to take turns at the table, and they must not grumble when they are told to move on. Plainly, if this political pressure for the appointment of a particular person could be baffled the present uncertainty of tenure would be corrected. The head . Of a department who should fill the various offices under him, not with favorites of certain men, but with those who are found to be qualified, would then have none but legitimate reasons for the removal of any faithful and efficient officer.
