votes for the tax: Western States go for ana
25 against: New York for and % apaj 80,
New Jersey for and 3 against. The SoHh
and West by the above it will be observed
were nearly solid in favor of the tax. and thh
House will doubtless tack an amendment n
the tax bill carrying out the boye object
should the WAYS and Means committee nev.
lect 10 insert clause to The above effect in N.
bill 10 be reported by them. Six members OF
the WAYS and Means committee voted in the
affirmative, which leaves but three opposed 10
the tax, hence we naturally conclude thai tha
tax bill will be drawn up TO carr, ont the ex-
preston of the House above referred to 10
the above vote was included some forty or more
members who but short time ago a voted
against reducing the tax on whiskey. 4, Is
more than probable that the tax on tobacco
may receive a reduction of l6 cents on the
pound, should the WAYS and Means commit
