"Apparently unironic and wisely unsigned, [Twain's The Curious Republic of Gondour] modestly proposed a change in the suffrage laws... the essay argued, in essence, that universal suffrage was fine - but why not allot bonus voting privileges on an escalating scale based on extent of education and property holding" (Powers, Mark Twain: A Life, 378).
