"...a government which derives all its powers directly or indirectly from the great body of the people, and is administered by persons holding their offices during
pleasure, for a limited period, or during good behavior. It is ESSENTIAL to such a
government that it be derived from the great body of the society, not from [a
small] proportion, or a favored class of it... It is SUFFICIENT for such a

tenures just specified..."
