Radicalism not dangerous

Ireland
1. Bill &c recapitulated
Compared with
triannuality, annuality
not deemed to
important as to preclude
acceptance of
trinniality if withlb/> secrecy, equality
and housholdership
But in favour of it
no reason could be
found

4. As compared with annually triannuality of suffrage I
annuality of suffrage did not point itself to me as
being of that importance that should prevent me
in the supposition of its depending upon myself from
giving acceptance to it accepting of it surrounding it on condition of obtaining
triannuality with secrecy of equality of suffrage suffrage, and

a reason I am no more able to give you what appears
to me a reason in favour of it in preference to
annuality than I am to give what appears to me
a reason favour of housholder suffrage in preference
to virtually universal suffrage.

Precedents for annuality:

2. American States

parliamentary practice in this England country the existing
practice in the body of the Metropolis of
the empire and the practice in any one of the
22 American United States: in any instance without
upon bestowing in it.

And as for any effect produced by When proposed it seem comments to be
proposed without the addition of either seeing if vertical commonality
of suffrage or so usual as practical equality of suffrage.
and in these terms I see not any effect good
but that can be produced by it except by additional
frequency be a contest of which the evils inconveniences

in the shape of the representation,

uncorrected and
pulluted all the actions
and evils the
