The system of government I have suggested here is based on the conception that it is the duty of the Governor or Ruler to provide a good Government for his people, and it is the business of the elected representatives of the people to see that the Government is operated in their interests and for their welfare. The great advantage of this system would be that the Government would be administered by capable, trained officers, who would have the confidence of their Chief and the desire to co–operate with him. The Assembly, which would constitute the people’s voice, would merely lay down the general policies which it wished the government to follow, and see that these policies were carried out to their satisfaction. Such a government would be stable, efficient, and honest, and would contain far fewer frictional elements than a system wherein all of the offices were filled by elected men from the mass of the people who are likely to possess varying degrees of education, experience and ability, and who are bound to have sectional loyalties.
