ing mine constitution o' th's state
which makes u obligatory on the
Legislature to pass such q law and
THAT The exercise Of the implied au'

Re'oired 81. That this As-ocia.

journals with the evident and sole
object of beng designated by the
Legislature as the mediums for pub
lie advertisements, the best evidence
OF their unhtness therefor, 1t implios
a subservency Incompatible with
the dignity and independence Of a
free, unshackled press, and there
fore unworthy the c%ountenance ala
free aud independent people.
Re'oired 4th. That the passage Of
such a law cannot be regarded other
wise than an attempt to force such
newspapers upon the patronage of
the people, aud that to six the

right to have such service performed
through better mediums and on bet
