, in towns and thickly populated
, sections, but in the rural and
sparsely settled districts, and
: as the education Of pupils in the
J sparsely settled sections Of the
: State is necessarily more expen-
sive per capita than where
large number of pupils can at
tend the same school, such
division of the school money
should be made as will furnish
the means of education to all
children in the State.
XVI.
| Expenditures beyond the
means Of private individuals are
required fer surveys, engineer
ing, and the construction Of res-
ervoirs, canals, and other hy-
draulic works, for the purpose
of irrigation in this State. We
therefore favorliberal apprepris-
tions by Congress for surveys,
both hydrographical and tope-
graphical, to asc rtain how the
waters of this State, which Row
run to waste in flood time, may
be stored and utilized fer the
purpose of agriculture. to the
end that when all the facts are
known suitable aid may be OBJ
tanned from Congress to en- bic
the Government of the United
States to dispose ofits lands, and
! to enable the people to settle up
on and occupy the same.

Resolved, That two years
experience has demonstrated
that the present jury law which
compeis 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 al
uncertain period, and attend up
on District Courts as jurymen, is
q measure of unWlSe 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 ia the District Courts.
XVIII.
Resolved, that we point with
pride and pleasure tothe able and
brilliant record made by our
Senator in Congress, the Hon.
John p. JONES, in his watchfuI |
and yigiIant care ofeur interests
upon all occasions, as are fully |
shown by his unanswerable
speeches in Congress against the
reduction of duties upon foreign |
manufacturers and foreign pro-
ductions, which exposes in q
mastery style and in clear
and forcib!e manner the free |
trade doctrines Of modern De-
mocracy. HisabIe and exhaust
i've speeches upon the remone-
tization Of silver, particularly in
the last speech in Congress upon
that subject, in which he has
displayed more strongly his abil-
ity to render the abstruse subjects
intelligent to the common mind.
thereby replacing and uphold
ing the olu tilue-honored Amer
lean Dollar of our fathers in its
rightful position as part of our
medium and pur-
chasing power; and its logical
and overwhelming arguments in
favor of the passing ofthe Chi
nese Restriction and Exclusion
Bill and amendments thereto
during the last Congress.
Resolved, That our able
Representative in Congress,
Hon. William Woodburn, de-
s. rves the united thanks of the
people of this State for his con-
stant zeal and watchful care
over the true interests of the
people of this State, and that
we recognize in him an able
statesman, a faithful Represent
ative, and an honest man; and
we say: "Well done, thou good
and faithful servant; renewed
hOners await thee"
