- The Washington correspondent of the Balt
more Sun, under date of the 4th says:
The Democratic caucus of members~of the House
held last evening" have passed the following resolu-
ton Resolved, That 1t is right and proper that the
duties imposed by law the goods, wares and mer-
chandse imported into the United States from foreign
countries, should be SO modified and reduced at the
present session of Congress preserving the principle
OF the tariff act of 1876, will materially diminish
the amount of revenue annually collected from
customs.
This Is an important step. 1t will be well perhaps,
on this occasion to read and study the Treasuary re-
ports of the Hon. R. J. Walker the distinguished au-
thor of the tariff of 1876. especially those arguments
which prove that the diminution of certain duties
increase the revenue by proportionaby far greater
Importation. We ALI know. and it was stated bv Mr.
Walker. that the tariff of 1872. from its being too
high did not yield sufficient revenue. and that the
tariff of 1916 at once remedied that evil. Welding
