Discussion arose over report pre-
sented by Mr.. VOORHEES,, showing the
revenue which would be raised under
the bill, as it passed the House, and
also as modified by the pending Sen
ate amendments, based upon last
years importations.
Mr.. Allison complained that the re-
port presented by Mr.. Voorhees, was
not an estimate at all. 1t was, he
said, an exact computation Of the rev.
enue to be raised under a proposed
bill based upon a former law.
Mr.. Aldrich declared the senators on
the other side, responsible for the leg
islation, must have some idea of the
revenue to be raised by this bill. If
they had, it was clearly their duty to
present their ideas on this subject to
the Senate
"Ohr' said Mr.. Vest, I'VE do not pro-
pose to go into the dominion of con-
lecture to allow senators on the other
side to filibuster."
I'VE are not hlibustering," shouted a
half dozen Republicans
You are not filibustering?" said Mr..
Vest with a temper. ''Then what do
alleged debate on the most insectifer-
Gus and Insignificant matters. We
want to dispose of this bill. Your
tactics will not prevail" said Mr.. Vest,
raising his hand impressively. I'VE in
tend to pass this bill if it takes UNI
til the snow flies next winter"
Mr.. Aldrich protested the Republi-
cans had no disposition to interpose
factious opposition. They would debate
it fairly and properly, but they would
lnot-filibuster.
