Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book presents the proceedings of a legislative committee convened to investigate an alleged bribery attempt involving a member of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives and a state Senator. The author provides testimony from key figures in the case, including the accused legislator, Henry W. Conrad, and the Senator who made the accusations, Jacob Krebs. The transcripts reveal the details of the alleged offer, which involved a substantial sum of money in exchange for Krebs' vote in favor of a bill to charter a state bank. The committee's investigation delves into the motivations and actions of both parties, shedding light on the prevalence of corruption and the challenges of maintaining ethical conduct in political life. Through its thorough examination of this specific case, the book offers insights into the broader issue of political corruption in the United States during the 19th century.
