THE COMING TARIFF.
We zee It atated that the Committee on
Why's and A1eana of the House OF Repro
scntatives has decided to hear no ona of tho
nnny delegations or committees who desire
to be hears1 on the subject Of their special
interest or manufacture which they want
protected by tho tariff. The Committee
hayo nctod wisely. The present tariff is
