The Denison review. [volume] (Denison, Iowa) 1867-current, 1906-03-29
Senate remained in session all summe,

Senate remained in session all summer
however, and took testimony from
every part of the nation, and heard
every possible phase of proposed rem
eiy. AS soon as the new Congress
convened, the House prepared and
passed new bill. The former bill,
though reintroduced, was rejected in
the Committee of the House. The
bill as passed by the House is now
pending in the Senate.
That good, effective and satisfact-
DRY rate bill will pass is, in my judg-
ment, certain. A very large majority
of the members of both Houses are
determined to pass such measure.
1owa's entire delegation are not only
in favor of such a law, but they are
enthusiastically in favor if it. 1t is
Of prime Importance, however, that
such a law be considered, in every
possible. aspect. If it should share the
fate, after passage, of the Democratic
income tax law, great harm would
ensue, and the party would receive
no end of criticism. The debate now
going on is not between the bill as it
passed the House and no bill, but it
is with respect to the technical effect
of its provisions, and their consti-
tutionality. There are plenty of men
in each House of Congress who would
honor the Supreme Bench, and it is
but just to the people that these men
take the necessary time to perfect the
bill, if it be now perfect, and make
sure that it will stand the severe at
tacks that will certainly be made upon
it. This is being done. The great
lawyers in the Senate are studying
the bill in conjunction with the Pres
ident and his advisors in the light of
every decision of the courts, determin-
ed that when it is passed it shall
stand all tests and shall accomplish,
so far as is possible. all the President
asked in his message and what the
people expect.
Should the Senate by any unhappy
chance fail to pass such bill shall
be as much displeased as any one,
but l shall not be offended while the
question is being debated, nor shall
assume that difference of opinion is
synonymous with difference Of
motive.
