Harter had by this time become thoroughly convinced thac the justice of a demand cut no figure with the republican senators and heads of departments, and that it was utterly useless for any one to seek for favor at their hands unless he had a strong "pull" or was willing to stand a "rake off" from his salary each month, as shown by the reports of several investigating committees had been done in many cases.
