Panopticon Compensation Claim IV Patent Inventions
(3) 8
3. No Among the inventions of this labour-abridging class, but what there can is not be any, but what
is attended (as is well known) to be can not but be attended with very serious danger, at the hands of the
handicrafts who, with or without sufficient reason, behold, in an
establishment of the nature in question, a cause of their being
thrown out of employment. Many instances could be adduced,
of manufactories of this nature class destroyed, and
the undertakers ruined, by the operation of this cause. At
this very time I happen to know of an ingenious young
man Gentleman who having with the benefit of my Brothers ideas
as recorded in the among the specifications, and carried into execution
in some of his machines, set up a steel mill, has
hand by and rumours and his intimacy been kept now in a state of perpetual terror, since it has been at
work. With all the assistance he has derived, as above
got for removing this or that difficulty, real or imagined in making as it seemed to him this or that
beneficial addition or alteration or alteration he has to in various
particulars drawn upon had recourse to his own ingenuity, which
is of no ordinary stamp. By and by, this or that some less
ingenious person have having, by one means or other
obtained information of his system when brought into the plan, when wrought up to its
highest state of perfection, may by superiority of capital,
set up a manufactory of the same kind, unencumbered
with any of those preliminary and experimental expenses,
and by superiority of capital, undercut him,
and thus drive driving him out of the market, and he
set himself up in his place.
In the privileged and compleatly protected situation
in which in my Panopticon Penitentiary Establishment
my Brothers works would have been carried on, all such
dangers would have been out of the question case.
