preliminary tests and
securities. See

11.

and extent of their application.

3. Minimize the money
inducements for accepting
Office.
Aptitude established,
the less the money required,
the greater the
relish.
So, the more a man
will give.
Every penny, added to
this the minimum, adds
to predatory desires
and means of gratifying
them.
A throne, seat of the most
extravagantly fed, is so
every where of the most insatiable,
appetites.

How to number these reconcile
arrangements made in
this view, with each
other and with the necessary
responsibility of
each official subordinate
for the conduct of the
Subordinates, See

So far as depends upon
services performed by the
functionaries of government
the degree in which the
ends of government as above
are fulfilled, may be sad
to depend on the degree of
official aptitude possessed
by them, taken in the aggregate.
