Some OF these Resolutions are worthy &C nrois,

solutions we have more fault to find
nc recommendation to the Legislature eeto nrn.
vent the consumption in this State of oil articles

uio5 tae several suites, alil with FOREIGN nations
r''u alone has constitutional power to Law
n''ies on imports and exports It follows that No
