Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sioux City and Its Government (a Revision of "How Sioux City Is Governed" Previously Published in 1915): A Condensed, Correct Explanation of Sioux City's Government, Activities, Industries, Early History and Public Institutions, Checked by Those Who Are and Have Been in a Situation to Know; Addenda on State and National Government If merchants or farmers knew no more about their business than most citizens know about the way their government is managed, they would be come penniless in record time. It is more than likely that there is less than one per cent (about one thousand people in all Sioux City) who make it a point to study and to know what is being done. Pupils in school study city government and forget it. Their parents occasionally read a paragraph in the daily newspaper. But very few except those actually employed in city offices and those who come in contact with the government in their daily business, know what is going on. In fact, citizens seldom count it as being a part of their business. There are too many duties which concern their home, their work, or their business deals, they say.
