Indirect Legislation

Non-seducing

But he who is removeable from a place of honour
or profit at the pleasure discretional of another, is pro
tanto
in the power of that another. It seems as
danger
In this point of view it seems inexpedient
that a the members of administration should
have no votes in either house of parliament: or what comes
may come to pretty nearly the same thing, that
the number of such votes should be in a very
small proportion to the rest. [In strictness Ex majori cautela perhaps
it were better they should have none]
It would wear a better appearance if they had
none. The arrangement institution system of government would appear more
perfect: individuals and the whole body it's whole body would stand clearer of be less obnoxious to
suspicion. It is necessary indeed that there
should be an a certain intercourse between the parties
and judges in this case as in others. But
what intercourse need is there of any other. It is
their duty to be heard as witnesses: it is their right
to be heard as parties: but is it necessary on this
account that they should act as judges in their
own cause? The right of speaking is one thing;
the right of voting is another: the first may subsist
without the second, or the second without the
first.
