it is true that we are called a democracy, because power is in the hands of the many and not the few . . everyone is equal before the law; when a citizen is in any way distinguished, he is chosen for public service, not as a matter of privilege, but as reward for his abilities. neither is poverty an obstacle; a man may benefit his country whatever his social class.
