1. Annals of Congress, 1807–8, p. 23.
2. If I may be permitted an opinion, I would say that in campaigning for public office, a candidate does what he must do in order to win, yet when he is once elected to the legislature, for example, the majority of university men probably serve the public more effectively than do a majority of non-university men. This is not true in every case, there are many exceptions, but, by and large, I think it is true. My observation of Fabian and Guarda since their induction into office supports this view.
