Papers Relative to the Obstruction of Public Business and the Organization of the Civil Service (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Papers Relative to the Obstruction of Public Business and the Organization of the Civil Service

IN no instance Within the recollection of the Writer has it been more needful than in the present to read the Preface, or more necessary for the Reader to take thought of the occasion of the work, as well as of the relation of the matter to his own concerns. The Critic, the Public, the Minister, the Minister of a Department, the Member of Parliament, the Head of a Department, the Officer and Clerk, and the Special Interests, popular, local, commercial, profes sional, Will all look at the matter with an eye to their own objects, and such is the dry and scattered nature and casual purpose of these papers, that, without a Word of explanation, the object of the effort will, in all probability, be missed, and that not through any body's fault, not even that of the Writer.
