We reproduce the opening para
graphs of Senator Vests speech against
the Anti-Option bill:
Mr.. President: l have earnestly en-
deavored to persuade myself that the
path of duty lay in the direction of
supporting the pending bill. l have
examined it very thoroughly again and
again, and l have been unable to come
to any other conclusion than that this
measure is one of the most pernicious
which has come before the Congress of
the United States during my fourteen
years of public service. Speaking from
my own standpoint and for myself alone
l would be compelled to give up every
conviction 1 entertain as to the struct-
ure and autonomy of our Government
before could give my sanction to this
bill. know the aggressive and almost
overwhelming public sentiment in
certain portions of the country in its
favor. know that explanation will be
required in every farming community
why opposition is made. 1would rath-
er explain my vote in every township
of Missouri from now until the Novem-
Der election than to put myself on rec
ord in favor of bill about the uncon-
stitutionality and the vicious tendency
of which l have not the slightest doubt.
If I could vote for this measure / would
support class legislation as a rule, for
have seen no bill before the Senate,
which in its web and wool, from the
first to the last word in it, contains so
much of the essence of class legislation
and of nothing else.

consider it an elegant oil painting.
