To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I deny not the right of Congress to regulate their own compensation. So clear is this, that had they voted to themselves a salary of 15, 000 instead of 1600 dollars, the law would have been constitutional. And for this rea- son it is peculiarly important that, in the exercise of an unlimited power to take money from the treasury for their personal benefit, they proceed with caution. Here, if aHy where, vigilance becomes the duty of the people ; because here, more than anywhere else, a dangerous... temptation is presented to the avaricious. Had Congress believed an increase of the compensation of the members to be necessary, and been free from the in- lliience of selfish motives, it would have been easy to have deferred the operation of the law to the commencement of the next Congress. By the constitution, the salaries of the judges can neither be inci'eased nor di- ininished during their continuance in office. An amendment extending the same provision to members of congress, who are entrusted to regulate their own compensation, is certainly not less necessary.
