Extractions: PLUNKITT OF TAMMANY HALL [George Washington Plunkitt (1842-1924), long-time State Senator from New York's Fifteenth Assembly District, was for forty years a Tammany sachem and something of a power in New York City politics. He became wealthy by means of what he called "honest graft," but continued to hang on to political power because he enjoyed it. He seems to have given interviews and conducted much of his business from a seat on the bootblack stand at the New York County Court-House. William L. Riordon, a journalist, published a series of interviews titled Plunkitt of Tammany Hall (N.Y.: McClure, Philipps & Co., 1905) which give the flavor of the man with disarming frankness-indeed, one might regard parts of the book as disingenuous. Here we reproduce parts of two chapters: "Honest Graft and Dishonest Graft," pp. 3-10; and "To Hold Your District," pp. 46-53.] Everybody is talkin' these days about Tammany men growin' rich on graft, but nobody thinks of drawin' the distinction between honest graft and dishonest graft. There' s all the difference in the world between the two. Yes, many of our men have grown rich in politics. I have myself. I've made a big fortune out of the game, and I'm gettin' richer every day, but I've not gone in for dishonest graft blackmailin' gamblers, saloon-keepers, disorderly people, etc.and neither has any of the men who have made big fortunes in politics.

http://www.mcmanusdemocrats.com/html/history.html

Extractions: This is believed to be the photograph that Thomas J. McManus used during his successful election as District Leader against George Washington Plunkitt in 1905. There are a number of bills that Thomas passed while serving in the State Senate. One of those bills helped create one of the Westside Parks called "Dewitt Clinton Park." The McManus family has provided leadership and service to the area known as Hell's Kitchen - now officially called Clinton - for more than 100 years. For over 30 years our Democratic Association, through Jim McManus' leadership, has and continues to act as law adviser, social service provider, consultant, and accountant to his constituency. All are welcome. Housing, jobs, health and social services problems are among other areas the Club addresses.

Extractions: Two documents - the 'Fourth Of July' speech by Frederick Douglass in 1852 and the opinion of Justice Taney in the Dred Scott versus Sanford case of 1857 are, in essence, declaring the same thing - that blacks of the pre-Civil War era do not have the rights of an American citizen. This 5 page paper compares the opinion of Justice Taney with the speech by Douglass. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

Extractions: The Shame of the Cities On The Shame of the Cities The Shame of the Cities. Yes, the Irishman is grateful. His one thought is to serve the city which gave him a home. He has this thought even before he lands in New York, for his friends here often have a good place in one of the city departments picked out for him while he is still in the old country. Is it any wonder that he has a tender spot in his heart for old New York when he is on its salary list the mornin' after he lands? Source: William L. Riordon, Plunkitt of Tammany Hall (1905; reprint, New York: E.P. Dutton and Company, 1963).

http://historymatters.gmu.edu/d/5030/

Extractions: One of the famous, albeit not the most important of the old-time political bosses, was George Washington Plunkitt. Although he was well known in New York City political circles in the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries, his enduring fame came from a very short book with a very long subtitle: I see my opportunity and I take it. I go to that place and I buy up all the land I can in the neighborhood. Then the board of this or that makes its plan public, and there is a rush to get my land, which nobody cared particular for before. Up in the watershed I made some money, too. I bought up several bits of land there some years ago and made a pretty good guess that they would be bought up for water purposes later by the city. For instance, the city is repavin' a street and has several hundred thousand old granite blocks to sell. I am on hand to buy, and I know just what they are worth. How? Never mind that. I had a sort of monopoly of this business for a while, but once a newspaper tried to do me. It got some outside men to come over from Brooklyn and New Jersey to bid against me. As a matter of policy, if nothing else, why should the Tammany leaders go into such dirty business, when there is so much honest graft lyin' around when they are in power? Did you ever consider that?
