Indirect Legislation
the conclusiveness of the inference. In this case
the creation of such an offence comes to nearly
the same thing as to suggest the fact in question to the judge in
the way of instruction under the character of an
evidentiary circumstance. There is only the difference
that in the one latter case the legislator puts
it to the judge to make the inference, whereas in
the former he makes the inference himself, reserving
only a power in the judge to repel it If he should think
proper
in the
event of his finding any special reason for so doing [in any
given instance for looking upon it as inconclusive]
Upon In the latter plan the conclusion is most likely to take
place: in the former it requ requires an
effort to establish it: on the other latter in establis it requires an
effort to overthrow it. Ceteris That side of an alternative
has ceteris paribus the best chance which has the
vis inertiæ of the brain mind in its favour. Whichever
scale the vis inertiæ of the mind is thrown into possesses
a great advantage.
