Excerpt from Appointing Officers and Civil Service Regulations

There are still other people, and manv of them, who do not take the trouble to think about the matter, who care for little which does not promise advantage to themselves, and who lack the taste or the energy for political activity. They keep quiet, refrain from stirring opposition, and take advantage of any wind from any quarter. When they want something, they want it very badly. Then they cannot understand why every interest should not turn aside for theirs. Seeking some thing, they think that the laws and rules are made only to fool the uninitiated, and when disappointed they are very skeptical about square and honest men in public life. Passing for most excellent people, professing rec titude and possessing it so long as no selfish interest is in the way, they are singularly deaf to all reason and blind to all principle when a real test comes and con science toys with temptation.
