! Expenditures beyond the
means Of private individuals arc
required for surveys, engineer

EesaiNed, That two years
experieuce has demonstrated
that the present jury law which
compel5 citizens, at their own
expense, without regard to their
pecuniary ability or the losses

to all citizens fair compensation
for all the time which they spend

expenses which they incur in
performing the duties of jury
