Ch. 2. Blind Job-Denouncers Cry — What? more Jobs?
The Blind Job-Denouncers cry differs no otherwise
from the Blind-Place-Abhorrer's than as the nature of
the benefit in question in the one case differs from what
it is in the other. In the case of the Place-abhorrers cry cry
the benefit is generally of a permanent as well as a
well defined nature: in the case of the Job-Denouncer's
Cry cry it is commonly of an incidental and transient
nature and still more commonly of an undefined or
imperfectly defined nature.
Of the species sort of transaction termed a Job, the most
extensively applied and best-defined species is that which
is commonly however undiscriminatingly designated
by the word Contract: understand with Government: a contract
for the supply of this or that portion of the labour
or stock or all sorts employed by Government.
In a word any institution or transaction from whence
benefit in any shape is seen or pretended to be seen to
be reaped or about to be reaped by an assignable individual
in consequence of a any transaction of his with Government
is in virtue of the quality thus ascribed to it, wont in use to be
termed a Job, and as such denounced in the character of
an instrument of corruption employed in the source of corruption
And so concise the in its form is the word and at the same time so commodiously strong
and so extensive is the sentiment of disapprobation which by exposure of
the evil has been stands attached to the idea of a transaction voluntary on [+]
[+] the part of an individual
between the individual
and Government;
and thence so commodiously
dyslogistic the character and complexion of the it,
that it is as no commonly employed applied in the its character of a dyslogistic
application
application to any fresh
Office under Governments
or to any the increase by
which such office has
been established.
