Fallacies Ch. 3 Job denouncer's

1

Ch. 3. Job-denouncer's cry. A Job this? all a Job!

' 1. Exposition.

The occasion by which opportunity is afforded for the working of this fallacy, is the institution of any measure, from which any peculiar benefit can be shown /appears/ to be likely to accrue to a determinate individual or assemblage of individuals

The observations which as above have been applied to the last preceding fallacy will be found, a /in a/ /in some/ considerable part of them /considerable degree/, applicable to the /present/ one now under consideration.

If however we consider job-places (places charged with being created for no other purpose than that of putting the emolument into the hands of the placeman, and giving to the servants of the crown the benefit of the sinister influence) if we consider job-places as discarded /posted off/ to and already considered under the last preceding head, the common pleas in question may in the observations made on the subject in speaking of the present fallacy be both of them laid out of the account.

    Job denouncers cry

    1. Expression

    J.B. will not mention an instance of Contract free from Job, because of the still undiminished form of the preferably[?] scattering[?] fallacies.  which will have been mentioned before

    The sort of transaction to /the designation of/ which the word job is in use to be applied is one in which by the authority of government money or moneys worth is out into the hands of some individual or assemblage of individuals

    The intimation it is employed to convey is that in the first concoction /original design/ or at any rate in the progress of the transaction the general interest of the whole community has been sacrificed to the /that/ interest of that particular part.

    That transactions to which the appellative may in this sense be applied with justice, have existed and still continue to exist in no small abundance is not to be doubted They /Such transactions/ will continue To a more or less considerable amount transactions of this description will continue to have place and come successively into existence, so long as the manner of conducting business of government shall continue to fall short of perfection in this line.

    . 2. Fallacies classed

    In those /such/ instances in which, after an explanation has been given of the natire of the fallacy, any thing remains that can contribute to the exposure of it, observations under the head of exposure are accordingly given.

    But in many instances, where in addition to the indiciation given of /imtimationb afforded by/ the general term fallacy had been simply /merely/ explained, what appears sufficiently evident is that from any thing that can be added for the purpose of exposure the inefficiency of it in the character of a rational argument can not be placed n any clearer or stronger ground. In these cases the head of exposure is omitted, and in lieu of it examples are given of classes of cases in which the fallacy in question has been in use to be employed.

     In lieu Expectation and Exposure, may on this occasion perhaps be placed for a heading the word

    Observations

    The fallacies which are alike capable of being made to serve the purpose of the Ins and the Outs: which are so many instruments of deceit alike capable of being taken in hand and employed with more or less advantage to the purpose, of those who have powers in expectancy only, namely in the event of their being substituted[?] to their adversaries, [...?] be the purposes of those who are to the purpose of the expectant party as of the party in possession have been already brought to view.

    Those which are peculiar to the case of the Outs of the expectant party come /be/ within a very narrow compass.

    They seem to be all of those referable to one or other of two intimately connected, and but little different heads. 1[?] the Blind Place-abhorrers cry; and the Blind Job-Denouncers[?] cry.
