Expenditures beyond the
means of private individuals are
required for surveys, engineer

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, su,nmarily to
suspend their usual occupations,
break their business engage

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.

upon all occasions, as are fully
shown by his unanswerable
speeches in Congress against the
reduction Of duties upon foreign
manufacturers and foreign pro-
which exposes in Is
style and in a clear
and forcible manner the free
trade doctrines of modern De
Hisable and exhaust

the last speech in Congress upon
that subject, in which he has
