the bill. Hs did not buiievo it to be
within the power of congress to en -
not such a lav without first amend

Plumb also opposed the bill. He
regarded it as an anomaly in legislioa
lation, appropriating money not only
for one year, but for eight yiars. He
had no doubt that at the end of eight
years, if the appropriations now
pendlug were not ooutluu-d, con
ventions would meet aud de!egae>
would be sent to Washington to urge
oongtees to keep on appropriating
more money. We must, therefore,
understand that iu passing this bill
We were arranging for expendituiei
lor generations yet to oorne. Large
appropriations bad come to have
something attract'/e in th»m
and an aopropria'.ion of $77,000,000
was eeveuty-sevcu turns more aurao-
tive thau uu appropriation of $1 000,-

that a much larger piopuUion ol

bill whs false, that theory being that
the southern states were not able to
give common school education to
