536.
104 Adoption of the Fourteenth Amendment.
The resolution as reported by Mr. Stevens from the Recon- struction Committee was adopted by a vote of 120 to 46.^^ Mr. Stevens stated that he had at first favored a proposition similar to the substitute offered by Mr. Schenck, but that when he saw that it was impossible to secure it he gave it up. He also expressed the desire that his proposition that " all national and state laws shall be equally applicable to every citizen, and no discrimination... shall be made on account of race or color " would be brought forward. In his opinion it was unwise to join it with the proposition in regard to rep- resentation, ^^ and this statement should be remembered when we come to consider this question later. Mr. Benja- min, of Missouri, opposed Mr. Schenck's proposition on the ground that the representation of Missouri would be reduced from 9 to 4, since the Confederates had been disfranchised in that State.
The resolution was destined to meet such opposition in the Senate as to foreshadow its defeat.
