J sparsely settled sections Of the
|, State is necessarily more expen
sive per capita than where .
large number Of pupils can at

division of the school msney

the means of education to all
children in the State.
XVI.
Expenditures beyond the
means of private individuals are
required for surveys, engineer
ing, and the construction Of res
ervoirs, canals, and other by
draulic works, for the purpose
of irrigation in this State. We
therefore favorliberal apprapris-
! tions by Congress for surveys,
both photographed and topo-
graphical, to asc rtain how the
waters of this State, which now
run to waste in food 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 oh
tanned from Congress to en- ble
the Government of the United
States to dispose Off 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
coinpels 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, i.
a measure of unWISe economy,
often productive Of great hard |
ship and an unjust imposition
of public burdens upan 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 tDthe able and
brilliant record made by our
Senator in Congress, the Hon.
John Z. Jones, in his WatchfuI
and vigiiant care ofeur interests
upon all occasions, ia are fully
shown by his unan5werable
speeches in Congress against the
reduction of duties upon foreign
and foreign pro-
ductions, which exposes in
style and in Il clear
and forcible manner the free
trade doctrines Of modern De-
Hisable and ex haust-
i've speeches upon the remone-
tization of silver, particularly in
he last speech in Congress upon
that subject, in which he has
more strongly his abil-
ity to render the ahstruse subjects
intelligent to the common mind.
