Lh the discussion of the tariff in

Senaror George ot Mississippi,
presented some general observa

ground that "the bill which the
Senate was considering was not
the till that originated in the

Constitution reqmred bill to raise
revenue to originate. Technically
speaking t might be called an
amendment, but the House bill had
only been a j unsdictiouttl fact by
which the Senate has assumed con
frol of the outject." Correct.
