[Plunkitt of Tammany Hall by George Washington Plunkitt]@TWC D-Link book
Plunkitt of Tammany Hall

CHAPTER 6
7/11

I watch the City Record to see when there's civil service examinations for good things.
Then I take my young Cit in hand, tell him all about the good thing and get him worked up till he goes and takes an examination.

I don't bother about him any more.

It's a cinch that he comes back to me in a few days and asks to join Tammany Hall.

Come over to Washington Hall some night and I'll show you a list of names on our roll' marked "C.S." which means, "bucked up against civil service." As to the older voters, I reach them, too.

No, I don't send them campaign literature.
