(4) II. Elucidations

A blessing would a consequence of a tax
upon justice would be a tax both and
upon bread.

These know what it
is they say

This class when they speak of litigation as an evil, and the repression
of it as a good, provided always that it is by this
instrument the effect is produced know what it is they say. Advocating
in this instance their own cause, they thereby discourse and argue
with the sort of that disposition and practice in respect of
sincerity which is attached to the profession of advocate. They behold
in the plaintiff's word litigation and in the repression of litigation
instruments of delusion by which the authority a too large portion of the people are
in fact deluded, and of this delusion they take advantage.

34 or 8
2 Persons who though
liable to suffer severely
yet submit to the danger
rather than deprive
themselves of means
of maleficence.

Another class of those who, though themselves sufferers
as no man can fail of being, by the tax they imposed upon the
services of the Judge, and such security as is derived from this:
yet for the sake of a collateral benefit which they desire from
the tax, are content to pay it: content in such sort that they
would oppose the abolition of it. These are they who behold
35 or 9
Monopoly of justice its
value as an instrument of
1 oppression
in it an instrument of oppression, depredation and self
exultation in part constantly applied on either part at any
time applicable to their own use. In their hands An instrument of oppression it
is rendered by the bare possibility of being applied to this use
by the possibility: and thus without any act due in consequence, and thus without any expence.
One of these relatively rich men has he a fancy for
causing a relatively poor man to suffer in , he gives him
to understand that he has in contemplation the bringing against
him a suit, the suit at Common Law or Equity; by a suit at
Common Law most men are capable of being ruined, by a suit
in Equity most men. [How then may be seen the effect of the
upon justice.]
