8. Rule 2. In the hands of each such Agent minimize
this power of doing evil.

9. Rule 3. Leave at the same time as little diminished
as may be, the power of doing good.

10. Rule 4. Minimize the quantity of public money at
his disposal.

11. Rule 5. Minimize the time during which it remains at
his disposal.

12. Rule 6. Minimize the number of hands through which
it passes in its way to the hand by which it is received in payment.

13. Rule 7. Extra reward give none without proportionable
extra service: extra service proved and that by evidence
not less conclusive than that which is required to be given of
delinquecy with a view to punishment.

14. Rule 8. Maximize each mans responsibility with
respect to the power and the money with which he is entrusted. 15
— Note (a). To this arrangement no objection wearing the face
of a rational one, could ever be made other than that of unpracticability

an objection formed by the assertion that consistently
with internal peace and security no such arrangement can
have place. But in the case of the Anglo American United States, the
groundlessness of this objection has been completely demonstrated by
experience: demonstrated by the very first experiment ever
made: which to the purpose of all such persons as had on new
Constitution to make — this same arrangement even upon the
supposition that the experiments made of it had in a considerable
number, all of them failed might still have remained
the only eligible one: for as will be seen below the above mentioned
Constitution is one which beating irresistible force from without
affords a reasonable promise of everlasting endurance: whereas
every other form of government contains in the very essence of
it, the seeds of its own dissolution: a dissolution which sooner
or later can not but have place.
