: as the education of pupils in th'
) sparsely settled sections of tht
, State is necessarily more expen
sive per capita than where /
large number of pupils can at

Expenditures beyond the
means Of private individuals are
required for surveys, engineer
ing, and the construction of res
ervoirs, canals, and other hy--
drauic works, for the purpose
of irrigation in this State. We
therefore favorliberalappropria-
tioDs by Congress for surveys,
both photographed and topo-
graphical, to ascertain how the
waters of this State, which now
run to waste in flood time, may
be stored and utilized for the
purpose Of agriculture. to the
end that when all the facts are
known suitable aid may be OBJ
tanned from Congress to en- BILE

Resolved, That two years
experience has demonstrated
that the present jury law which
compels citizens, at Their own
expense, without regard I" their
pecuniary ability or the losses
they may suffer, summarily to
suspend their usual occupations,
break their business engage
ments, travel long distances and |
remain from their homes for an |
period, and attend up
on District Courts as jurymen, is
a measure of unWise economy,
often productive Of great hard
ship and an unjust imposition
of public burdens upon private
individuals. We therefore de-
mand Of the next Legislature
such legislation as shall secure
to all citizens fair compensation
for all the time which they spend !
and full reimbursement for all
expenses which they incur in
performing the duties of jury
men in the District Courts.

shown by his unanswerable
'peeches in Congress against the
'eduction Ofduties upon foreign
manufacturers and foreign pro-
factions, which exposes in a
style and in clear
nd forcible manner the free
rade doctrines Of modern De
Hisable and exhaust
We speeches upon the relnone-
ization of silver, particularly in
he last speech in Congress upon
hat subject, in which he has
displayed more strongly his abil-
ty to render the abstruse subjects
to the common mind.
hereby replacing and uphold
