Excerpt from The Fakers
Senator William H. Paxton, universally known as The Old Fox of the Senate, had been to the White House that morning, had wheedled the President into promising an important appointment to a man from the Paxton organization and was well pleased with himself as he walked down Pennsylvania Avenue toward the Capitol. His hat was cocked a bit to one side, he swung his cane jauntily, and blew little clouds of smoke into the sunshine from the cigar that tilted upward from one corner of his full-lipped mouth. He smiled genially at the passers-by and added a bow to his smile whenever any person he met displayed the slightest sign of recognition, which was frequently, for Paxton was serving his twentieth year in Congress and was a familiar figure on the streets of Washington.
The Senator was not only pleased with himself, but pleased with the politics he had played, with the President who had helped him play it, with his party, his prospects, and his power. Several of his colleagues had candidates for the place Paxton had secured for his own man, and the fight had been lively and, at times, acrimonious.
