letter From Oar Congressman

WAsHISGrcs, ID. c.. Feb. 2j, lSs0.-W.
p. Walton: DEAR SIR-Your letter in re-
gard IN tariff on paper, &c, and containing
the memorial Of our friends was duly re-.
ceived, and take not only great pleasure
in presenting it, but will do all that one
man can to bring forth the results prayed
for. We do not meet with that success we
desire. The tariff men, during the long
control Of the Republican party, 80 framed
the tariff as TO break up the unity Of the
Democrats, and we are 50 divided that
even with the grudging aid given rs by
some Republicans, We are in a minority.
have no hesitation in saying this is largely
due to the organization of the House by
the present Speaker. As long a. he holds
the helm protection cannot be assaulted in
detail, the only way to defeat and break il
up. No general tariff bill can be put
through. Louisiana will not surrender
her protection in sugar, Pennsylvania in
iron and steel, West Virginia in coal and
salt. The Republicans make most Of their
men vote against any relief Of any kind.
A gene. al tariff bill is always framed to be
defeated by antagonizing Democratic pro-
teeted interests, when party fealiy yields to
local interest and foar Of local influences.
We can hardly expect even Democrat
to vote for reduction in the tariff when
that vote seals his political career, We are
now trying to &c. up league, "Anti-Pro-
lection" composed Of Greenbackcr, Re
publicans, principally Democrats, and by |
an organized effort to accomplish some

strong hopes that VIC will get il organized I

lines We can put the protected interests TO
