    Thus then between the party by whom this mass is shared together /including/ those who by their means are in constant expectation of succeeding to shares in it on the one hand, and the party by /to/ whom neither in possession nor in expectancy is any share in view strife constant and interminable has place. Constantly is the excluded party occupied in forcing itself in. For doing so it has no means but that of preferring against the party in possession: accusations matter for which never has been nor in such a form of government ever can by any possibility be wanting But for the bringing and prosecuting this /receipt of any such/ accusation, there exists but one possible tribunal /judicatory/, and that is the Public Opinion Tribunal

    As to the odium, in intensity and extent it will be exactly in the ratio of the

    degree in which the qualities /attributes/ of probity and intelligence /moral

    and intellectual aptitude/ have place in in the community. By no government

    which is not an enemy - an uncontrovertible enemy to the rest of the community,

    can any such endeavour be ever or any where employed: by every such endeavour an

    avowal is made of such enmity, consequently of such /its own/ inaptitude, and

    consequently of its being the interest of all who are subject to it to put it

    down with all possible speed and by whatsoever means promise to be at the same

    time the most efficient and in respect of evil in all shapes least expensive: an

    avowal not in words indeed /it is true/, but in deeds: in deeds by which of the

    state of the agents mind on every occasion is afforded to such a degree

    conclusive, that evidence the most probative that in the nature of the case can

    be given by words alone shrinks into insignificance: and in truth amounts to

    nothing at all when opposed to the abovementioned practical evidence.
