The Flags of the Several united States Originally named New Netherland, New York was later named After the Duke of York and Albany, who received a patent to the region from his brother Charles II of England and captured it from the Dutch in 1644. A name coined by the state meaning "gem of the mountains" or "light on the mountains." Originally the name Idaho was to be used for the Pike's Peak mining territory in Colorado, and later for the mining territory of the Pacific Northwest. Though its exact origin is unclear, one theory maintains that it may have been a variation on the name of the Wisconsin River, which was called Ouaricon-sint on a French map dated 1715. www.barefootsworld.net /stflags.html   (3213 words)

Lalor, Cyclopaedia of Political Science, V.1, Entry 69, APPORTIONMENT: Library of Economics and Liberty The regular annual apportionment in many of the states, New York, Illinois, and others, of a school fund raised from the several counties by valuation and distributed by population (New York) or by population of a school age (Illinois) has continued the use of the word apportionment in fiscal allotments. Historically the apportionment of representation has been first by status, next by the recognition, generally on an equality, of the organic or administrative divisions of the state, and lastly by number; a method of apportionment now recognized in the fundamental law of all constitutional nations except Great Britain, and at intervals recognized even there. —In apportioning representation, the state authority discharging this duty is generally limited in three particulars, in the number of members to be distributed, in their distribution among the civil divisions of the state and in the representation to be given to fractions. www.econlib.org /library/YPDBooks/Lalor/llCy69.html   (6884 words)

Several of these, exhausted by the hardships incident to their work, gave up their lives only to be replaced by others from their community in New York.
