ST. THOMAS' POLITICAL DOCTRINE AND DEMOCRACY 97 of a royal regime. Too, he teaches the untenability of the doc- trine that the end of all government is the good of the governed. Dunning expresses his position thus : ''A monarch, and especial- ly a monarch with sovereignty in full proprietorship, may rule, like the master over his slaves, for his own interest, or like the husband o
...ver the wife, for the joint interest. "^°- Now St. Thomas considers no nation so abject as to be absolutely incapa- ble of some share in its own rule. His doctrine of rationality evinces this. Individuals may be incapable ; but the aggregate in a state always represents a degree of intelligence and responsi-" bility which must be regarded and respected. One draws from the Doctor's views that no ruler is or can be absolutely adequate, much less superior, to the community. The natural law is bigger than he ; and he is less than the People.
