STILL DEBATING THE ANTIOPTION BILL.
SENATOR COKE ADVOCATES SUBSTITUTE


Washington July 27.-In the senate to-day con-
sideratlon OF the AntiOpon bin was resumed Mr. Coke
proceeded argue against the constuonaity OF the
bin and I'm favor OF the substitute offered on behalf OF
himself, Mr. George and Mr. Pugh.
The use OF the taxing power In order to carry out
the objects ~ the BILL would be, he said, perver'on
from It's original dsign. clear and manifest as to
show an unmistakable disregard Of constitutional
obligation. The power to lay and collect taxes had
been vested in Congress to raise revenue to support
the Government but 1t was proposed In the pending
bill TO use It I'm order destroy business that was
essentially vicious and bad, but honest commerce
would be obstructed by It. Hundreds OF thousands OF
good honest people would be ensnnred In the pitfalls
of the complicated bill II 1t became law. and would DO
made liable to runous prosecutions and penalties.
The farmers of the United States were entitled to a
more respectful recognition than such nondescrlpt
bill would give them. The substitute offered by Mr.
George would be, in Mr.. Cokes judgment, more com
pete and effcacious remedy for the evil: and was,
so far as he could see. free from constitutional Oh
lection.
Mr. Mitchell. a member OF the Judiciary Committee,
from which the bill reported said that In his
an xiey to see the bill passed he had RETAINED nom

a legal argument in support Of the position which he
took which that the taxing power covered inder
the decisions OF the supreme Cour not only the power
TO protect trnde and commerce, but the power 10
destroy.
Mr. Palmer argued against the bill as an ABUSE
and perverson Of the taxing power not to be lus'e'
by any sound system OF reasoning. one or the MIS-
fortunes of the times that the police powers OF the
liz tod nv III
uess had the power to invade the States In order 10
punish gambling, he did not know why the senator
from Minnesota (Mr. Washbnrn might not support
a bill to punish card playing or any other form Oh
gambling lie deprecated and depored every invita-
ton TO the people abandon their popular methods
which were the lfe-blood OF self government and OF
sefenacted and selfenforced law, and to resort to
dcspoc agencies.
Al the close OF Mr.. Palmer's remarks the bill was
laid aside without action. after Mr.. Washburn had
made A request for unanimous consent to nix a time
for taking a vote the bill and Mr. White had en-
phatically objected
