against tho Measure m such towns. When the sta
makes laws for raising money for general purposes the
burden must hl equally on all the people The
proposed by this bill violates that rule We cannot
do indirectly What we cannot do directly We cannot
delegate power TO towns which cannot exercise
selves He was willing To be taxed TO any extent to help
the soldiers and the government but he did not think
this was ufoper measure
Mr. Dprr of Rutland said that in the progr s of this
bill he had once moved 10 refer Dc 60 the judiciary com.
mi.ee foe the purpose VI rang the constitutional qu's-
tons alluded 20 by the gentleman from Fairfax tsssrd
upon. But the House had oycrruled his motion aud
the military committee had taken u into consideration.
This bi simpy provides or the payment of b'uuues by
towns that have been pledged by u iiyduas n those
towns, and therefore bears analogy the quest
raised IN the supreme court " the state Of Maine The
constitutional question being disposed of he thought the
mU ougnto pass ana such was the conclusion Of the
committee individuals huvo pledged their faith TO
that they would 20 10 the war they should have the
houn'es Now those individuals do not ask the State 10
raise incy, but simply give hcm chance % fulfil
their obligations which went 70 swell the armies of lib
elty Another point The bill ought to remain just as
II is Let il provide for paying 90 who may be draft
ed hereafter, well as 20 those already drafted
That is bat lust and il makes better feeling among the
men ia the army. lie aid it would not rctard volun-
tccug because the towns in trying TO raise vounteers
could say to their people that II they did not volunteer
they would not AID them if thcy became draod notNi'h
standing they had an cnAbling act
Mr. Shaw of Burlington could NOT see any more of a
constitutional objection 10 allowing towns to raise money
10 pay bounhes % drafted men, than 70 volunteers bug
we should make di-tncion-we should draw line II
demarkatou between drafted men aud volunteers We
ought not to say 70 men, either by express enactment or
Implication, that II they drafted they shall be vel
done by As II they should volunteer
Mr. Wheeler oi South Hero moved that the bill be
dercd 20 De and be made the special Greer for tomorrow
at 10 o'clock A. NJ Agreed to.
