English term or phrase: minor office
A frase toda é:

Aristocracy withdraws a few men from the exhausting and
coarsening strife of economic competition, and trains them from birth, through example,
surroundings, and minor office, for the tasks of government; these tasks require a special
preparation that no ordinary family or background can provide. Aristocracy is not only a nursery
of statesmanship, it is also a repository and vehicle of culture, manners, standards, and tastes,
and serves thereby as a stabilizing barrier to social fads, artistic crazes, or neurotically rapid
changes in the moral code
