THE TARIFF QUESTION.

Special Dispctrh to the Register.
WASHINGTON, March 29.-The discussion
of the Tariff question hasnOw fairly begun,
and bids fair to last for some weeks. No
less than two hundred members have pre-
pared speeches upon the various branches
OF the question. Still there are indications
that members OF both parties in the House
feel some hesitancy and nervousness as the
time for general tariff discussion draws
near The Democrats are divided, and there
is more or less diversity Of views in the
Republican ranks. Two Democratic men,
bers OF the Ways and Means Committee,
Randall and Speer, favor the tariff commits
sion bill, while three, Carlisle, Tucker and
Morrison, are violently opposed to it. OF
the Republican members, five or six hear
tifySlsavor it, while the oelers are
,l,Ikewarm, and will accept it
with more or less reluctance. Certain
Democratic members of the committee, and
others in the House who are not OF the
committee, have been for some time hold
ing frequent consultations and collecting
material of various kinds with view to
bringing in a general tariffbill. 1t is quite
possible that they will attempt to offer such
a bill as a substitute for the Tariff Com
mission when the latter shall come before
the House, and that they will move to re-
commit that measure with instructions to
report bill for revision Of the tariff.
Whether either of these propositions will
be accepted by majority of the House may
be regarded as exceedingly doubtful.
The Tariff Reduction bill was reported
by Judge Kelly, to day, and referred to the
Committee of the Whole, where it will be
promptly and severely antagonized, and
will result in 4 discussion which will prob
ably cover the whole field OF taxation, rev.
enue and protection. Altogether the out
look for deluge of Congressional cloquence
is most flattering. Ian.

WASHINGTON, March 29.-The matter OF
the appointment of the Commissioners,
under the provisions of the Edmunds'
Anti -Polygamy bill, is attracting q good
deal of attention. The Saints have made
no opposition, but have contented them
selves with insisting that the Commission
shall be composed of parties living outside
the Territory, who could approach their
duties without prejudice for or against
either party.
On the other hand, Governor Murray,
Mr.. A. G. Campbell-the anti-polygamy
candidate from Utah-Judge Mcbride and
other prominent citizens OF the Territory
have filed papers with the President, earn
estly contending that if the bill is to have
any effect the election board must be
appointed from within the Territory,
and they have submitted list
of prominent citizens, not one OF
whom is. or would be-, an applicant
but who embrace the chairman of the ter
riIorial Democratic committee, the chair
man OF the Republican committee, two OF
the most influential Republicans OF the ter
ritory, and wealthy Democratic bsnker,as
a board that would be acceptable to all the
weil-disposed people of the territory. Mr.
