Excerpt: ...that the Senate had the right to amend in any way, ft but nearly all debate turned upon the advisability of the repeal of the tax, rather than upon the right of the Senate to make the amendment, and the bill passed, March 28, by a vote of 35 to 4, though Mr. Scott's amendment had but 28 yeas to n nays. XX Mr. Sherman said that he believed Mr. Scott's amendment had been made to defeat the bill. Certainly the House could not be blamed if it should view with suspicion a bill which had grown in the Senate from two lines to twenty pages, and whose very title had been changed. Soon after the bill was sent back to the House, Mr. Dawes, April 2, submitted a resolution "That the substitution by the Senate, uader the form of an amendment, for the bill of the House (H. R. No. 1537) entitled 'An act to repeal existing duties on tea and coffee, ' of a bill entitled An act to reduce existing taxes, ' is in conflict with the true intent and purpose of that clause of the constitution which requires that 'all bills for raising revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives, ' and that therefore said substitute for House bill No. 1537 do lie upon the table." The clerk of the House was also directed to inform the Senate of the purport of the resolution if the House should see fit to adopt it. The debate which ensued was all upon one side, and the names which follow indicate that the best talent of the House was engaged in defending the House privilege. Mr. Dawes, referring to the discussion over the Scott bill of the previous Congress, said: "The same proposition is now before the Senate in a little different form. The bill which now comes back from the Senate is a bill embracing a general revision not only of import...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Control of the Purse in the United States Government: A Thesis The investigation outlined in the following pages, of those pro visions of the constitution which relate to the control of financial matters. Was originally undertaken with the idea of tracing the development of the principle of self-taxation in England, and of noting how that principle came to be introduced into the United States. It was found that a study of budgetary control by the Commons in England amounted to little less than a study of the wow) of the English constitution, so that it seemed besr to confine the thesis to the consideration of the great provisions of the constitution of the United States, and to trust to the reader to remember that the presence of an article in the constitution, granting to the House the privilege of originating revenue bills, is due to the long recognized principle in England, that the people. Through their representatives in the Commons, should control the extent and purpose of taxation. The history of the introduction of the constitutional restriction referred to has been condensed also, so that the greater portion of the thesis is devoted to the various debates in Congress upon the correct interpretation of the constitution. These debates show that the House of Representatives has put a broader construction upon its privilege than was intended by the constitutional convention, and has practically assumed supreme control over all financial matters. Under these circumstances the natural inquiry is, whether or not the House of Representatives secures to the people of the United States that direct control over money matters which was intended by the Constitutional provision. In this connection a brief account is given of the business organization of Congress and the effect of that organi' About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on State and Federal Control of Persons and Property in the United States, Vol. 2: Considered From Both a Civil and Criminal Standpoint Our conclusion therefore is that there is no private property in land in the sense in which Mr. Spencer and Mr. George employ the term, and the provisions of the law in respect to the tenancy of lands are in strict conform ity with the principles they advocate. It may be, as Mr. George asserts, that certain cunning men in days gone by cheated society out of its dues, and obtained from it fee simple tenancies without rendering an adequate equivalent and it may be true (we shall not question the proposition in this place), that the present returns to the State for the private enjoyment of these tenancies are grossly inadequate to the benefits thus received: Mr. George may possibly be just in his claim that taxation of lands ought to be increased far beyond its present rate; but the economic problem would be very much simplified, if it is clearly understood that the scheme proposed for the nationalization of land in volves no legal, as it does an economic, revolution.
