Anything more at variance with truth than this could not well be conceived. The Constitu- tion was the outcome of wrangling and difficulty, and was wrung by necessity from an unwilling people. Indeed the doctrine of State sovereignty never bit the dust until the close of the bloodiest and most costly civil war on record. Everything is exaggerated in the United States, and the evils which always follow great wars, and those evils which are the peculiar heritage of civil wars, manifested themselv...es on an unprecedented scale. Though G-rant took the first step in Civil Service Reform, he was, and is, a friend of the Spoils System. His disregard of republican simplicity, his willing- ness to compromise the independence of his great office by taking presents from all sides, the scandals and peculations brought home to some of his prominent supporters, his readi- ness to stand by them, even after their character took the com- plexion of infamy, forced on the minds of the best citizens the truth that all human institutions will have peculiar weaknesses characteristic of the structure, and marking the way in w^hich they act on, and are influenced by, human passions.
