Resolved, That two years
experience has demonstrated
that the present jury law which
compels citizens, at their own
expense, without regard to 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
uncertain period, and attend up
on District Courts as jurymen, is
a measure of unwlse economy,
often productive of great hard
ship and an unjust imposition
of public burdens upon private
individuals. We therefore de-
maud 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
iHen in the District Courts.

speeches in Congress against the
reduction ofduties upon foreign
manufacturers and foreign pro-
which exposes in a
style and in clear
and fOrcible manner the free
trade doctrines Of modern De
Hisable and exhaust
i've speeches upon the renone-
tization 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.
