Assignment for Tuesday, 10/2

There are two readings for next time. First, read Richard Croker's "Tammany Hall and the Democracy" in the UP Reader. Then, read the following sections from Plunkitt of Tammany Hall (available here):

• Preface
• A Tribute by Murphy (one paragraph)
• Chapter 1: Honest Graft and Dishonest Graft
• Chapter 3: The Curse of Civil Service Reform

(If you end up printing this out, it's about the first 12 pages, minus chapter 2.) We'll discuss on Tuesday.
