Isern writes of it : " All provincial administration is in the hands of caciques and their representatives, and is profoundly immoral in eighty cases out of every^hundred. Yet, of the immoralities which we find in families which pay little or no taxation, in alcaldes and councillors who fill no office, yet live magnificently at the public expense, in politicians who receive more or less considerable bribes from these families and alcaldes — of these the provincial authorities and tribunals take... notice only on the eve of elections, and prosecute only when the culprits have given some cause of offence to the Ministry, such as failing to give beforehand to the governor the forms, signed and blank, to be filled up on the day of the election with the number of votes which it is thought fit to assign to the ' pigeon-holed ' candidate, as they say."' The elections in the majority of constituencies are what J. R. Lowell pronounced them in 1877 — "^ sham." I am told by a Spanish journalist that less than 200 out of 400 deputies are genuinely elected.
