first Draught 1826. Feby. 3 Constitutional Code.

Ch. VI. Legislative.
§. Relocable who.
Rationale

1.
Quest 1. Non-relocability,
why
Ans. 1. From undiscontinued
relocability,
evil in all shapes:
good in none.

2.
2. to public, all good
expected from it is secured
by Continuation Committee
with addition,
and without evil.

3.
3. To public, the evil
has for immediate cause
relative inaptitude in
all shapes.

4.
4. To deputies, evil
none; because
disappointment none: those
whom the Constitution
finds located excepted:
whence the grand
obstruction.

5.
5. Of the evil immediate
cause, relative
inaptitude in all shapes
6.
6. taken together:
for, by relocability
the first location is
made tantamount
to do. for life:
non-relocation, to dislocation.
The first locatee pleads
appropriate services:
neither now nor ever can
now or ever can be
non locatee plead any: by
no negative inaptitude
can a man be ousted:
only by flagrant
positive. Thus, the first
year; by every other, the
hold is strengthened.

relocability do corrupted: observe
evil in all
shapes, 2. in moral: 1 L 7
§. 2. Matter of corruption 8. 4 15
§. 3. Experience 146

Ch. VI. Legislative.
§. Relocable who.
Rationale

12.
13. In the moral, attraction
of corruption is
what do. of gravity is
in the physical world.

13.
14. Every year, the
adhesion, of which the
matter of corruption
is the cement, will
be the closer.
Having tasted of the
sweets of power, few
will willingly submitt
to be debarred
from them.
-----

III 1 14.
Sole reason for
undiscontinued relocability,
the word experience:
experience gained by
Deputies the first year,
and so on.

15.
16. But vague and
delusive is the idea
presented by it. If relevant,
it must mean
applied in all branches,
particularly moral,
in which it's utility on
the others depend.
But, in the moral,
instead of aptitude,
inaptitude, as above, is
the result, and the
intellectual and active
aptitude, being subservient
to the moral
inaptitude, are worse
than useless.

IV. 1. 16 15

will — nothing but the
less uniform influence
of understanding on

Committee men can not
be corruptees or
corruptors. so easily as .

Ch. VI. Legislative
§. Relocable who.
Rationale

17
18. To Deputies, situation
will not give intellectual
and active aptitude
equal to what it will to
Committee men. Electors,
and Judges, of the aptitude
of Deputies, the comparatively
uninformed and
inattentive Electors: of
Committeemen, the
maximizedly informed and
attached Deputies.

18.
19. For want of the stimulus
applied by competition,
the Deputies, if there be
no Continuation
Committee, will have no
need to strengthen, by
exercise, their intellectual
and active aptitude.
Not so, those who look to
the Committee men.

19.
20. But "experience" should
be applied to the situation
of Electors, as well
as of Deputies: in Deputies,
it means exercise
in the performance of
the business of the assembly:
in Electors, exercise
in the habit of taking note
of the conduct of Deputies
with a view to the relocation
so as to judge between
competitor & competitor.

21. Quest 2 Relocability. why
not perpetual.

21.
Reason. If it were, those who
alone have had practice
will be excluded from
competition with those
who have had none.

22.
23. What is desirable is
that as soon as the requisite
number of persons
who have had practice in
their situations, & whose
conduct in it the Electors have
had the means of observing
is completed,the Elector shd.
have the benefit of that
information & this they
can not have without
relocability.
