Ch
§ Subordinates choice
of greatest

Ch.
§. Subordinates how chosen

1.
Three requisites requiring,
but not easy, to be made
to have place in conjunction.

1. In Superordinate's eyes,
security for appropriate
aptitude in Subordinates:
to this, unlimited power
of location and dislocation
seem necessary.

2. Actual security for do.
by means of public
probationary or test exercises
in the branch of
instruction appropriate
to each department.

3. Minimization of
expence, by means of
competition between
candidates.

2.
Means of reconciliation
1. Maximize the number
of probationers
who have undergone
the tests: the greater the
number, the more the
Superordinate will have
to choose out of.

3.
Example. England.
By the multitude of
Barristers, the necessity
of confining the choice
of Judges to persons so
qualified does not
deprive the Superordinate
of a sufficient latitude
of choice.

4.
2. Maximize the publicity
of the degrees of
superiority manifested
by the candidates by
means of these tests.

5.
3. Maximize at the same
time the publicity of
the offers made by each
for the situation.

Ch.
§. Subordinates how chosen

6.
Here may be two claims
on different grounds —
A is higher than B on the
examination. B's bidding
is higher than A's.

Yet perhaps neither may
be on the whole so apt
as one whom the
superordinate knows of: for
example, both may be
deficient in moral aptitude
or in some branch of
intellectual, which the
examinations can not
very correctly show.

7.
Result recommended:
Superordinate being
responsible for his subordinates,
leave it in his
power to choose neither
A. nor B. but C, by whom
neither of these titles have
been exhibited.

8.
By fear of the Public
Opinion Tribunal added,
to his responsibility by
means of dislocatability, he
will be prevented from
choosing a favourite, in
whose instance incontestable
inaptitude in
any shape may come
to be manifested.

9.
Without need of legal
obligation, common
prudence will generally
direct his choice to the
aptest candidate: or at any
rate prevent him from
choosing an unapt favorite,
while documents so
public are testifying ag<hi rend="superscript">st
him.

Ch.
§. Subordinates how chosen

10.
With the want of the power
of dislocation, the responsibility
of superordinate
for Subordinates would be
altogether incompatible.

11.
On dislocation of a
subordinate, who has purchased
his situation, the
purchase money should be
returned him.

12.
Of those who have
undergone the examinations,
let the names and grades
be entered in a Register
Book: fresh editions
published every year.

13.
To each name add the
office he prefers, and the
purchase money he is
ready to give for it.

14.
To this Register Book wd.
all eyes, particularly
superordinates, turn of
course on each vacancy.

15.
For offices, the functions
of which are confined to
the receipt and payment
without need of exercise
of judgment, no tests need
be required.

Sole securities requisite
and sufficient, Bondsmen,
binding themselves
to supply eventual
deficiency.
