Civil

2. Finance. Expence of resulting from excessive
salaries to public officers, salaries annexed to
superfluous or useless offices, or sales sinecure, i:e: pensions of favour, salaries
without office.

That reform in every one of these instances is
desirable is not scarcely to be disputed, that a bar ought
to be set up against the granting of pensions of
mere favour, and exclusive of or over and above
the remuneration due pensioner allowance proper
on the score of reward to be allowed to annexed to service that
all sinecures and all offices unless either by in their nature
or by their multitude ought to be struck off, and
that the quantum of emolument annext to efficient
and necessary offices ought to be reduced to the
quantum of allowance necessary to engage in each
branch of public duty functions service the quantum of abilities and
other qualifications necessary for the most advantageous
discharge of those duties functions.

On the other hand it is not the less true, that
whatever portion of such allowance is struck off
without the most proper indemnity or any other terms than that of to the occupant
for the time being is not a gain but a loss to the
community upon the whole, to have considering the such
occupant as a part of that of the community, which
be a it is as much as any other. It is still the same
losing bargain as before, the same inequity of a tax
laid exclusively upon one or a few members of the community
for the benefit of the rest.
