No such arrangement has place in private service
No more reason why all those why one should be cheated
What are we to think of a scheme, plan, system of government which
upon the face of it has not the good of the community in view?
so interest of the governed in pl supon intended to be
by th its nature to the interest of its value?

Take next the case of grants for Joint lives.

In the case of a grant for joint lives, the corruptionthe clever
stands in blotches upon the face of itfool shews itself at once

If there were business sufficient to occupy
afford full occupation to If the quantity of business
were such that the disposable time of a single person
were not sufficient for the discharge of it, two persons more than one
occupation would be given to would be employed about it in the first instance
In other words there would be in the first instance two
offices created with an officer in each to fill it
each with one Officer to fill it each with a separate
remuneration, if the nature of the office rendered remuneration
necessary for his time andtrouble. But by
the supposition one Office alone, with one Officer
in it, lives is in post therefore how little
may be the quantity of business may be small
in any degree, it may be equalnothing to nothing at all
but at any rate it is not more than is necessary
to fill up the time of one person. Therefore the object it is
not the division of the business that is the object
it is not the making any provision for the business.
The object is the quantity of emolument and happens
to stand attached to the office being sufficient for persons
more than one what the arrangement has for its object the object is the division of the emolument
the making of a provision for individual
more than one.
