EVENING. APRIL II. 1882.

Mr. KELLEY, Chairman of the Ways and
Means Committee of the L. 5. House Of
Representatives. who is known to be in
favor of Il reduction of the internal revenue
tax. yesterday rose in his place in the House
and stated that he ''acquiescedS i'll the OPP
such Il reduction, and that he did not pro-
pose to resign his craftsmanship and become
the leader of the opposition to his own party.
In other words, Mr. Kelley knows
obedience to the orders Of the republican
caucus. \ large number Of his party
colleagues agree with him that rs the tariff
is to be- continued and that us by 1t and the
internal revenue Il yearly surplus OF more
than hundred and fifty millions is exactcd
of the people. three dollars and a-half for
every man. woman and child. white black
and yellow in the land. for which there is
no use. which cannot even be appropriated
tothe payment of the public debt because
that debt is not yet due and its payment
cannot be anticipated, and whchiS only the
prey Of plundcrerS. there should be Il rcdlc-
ton in the latter tax. and with the support
of the democrats they could readily effect
that reduction, but they subordinate their
just and right ideas concerning measures
that will be conducive TO the welfare and
happiness of the people TO those Of 4
caucus whose only object is party success,
and whose members sec in the surplus
in the treasury fund from which they can
draw ad libitum for their own reelection
and for the election Of their candidate for
the next Presidency. While the republic
cans are thus united there are a few Sucl So
called democrats as McSsrs Ellis, OF Luuisi-
ana, and Spcer, of Georgia. who, to achieve
little notoricty, take up the republican cry
of Bourbon democrats" pratc Of the beau
ties and benefits of independence, and assert
that their votes shall not he controlled by
caucus action!

personal quarrels between its individual
members are more numerous and more
frequent than those that occur between
their political opponents. and it is through
these quarrels that the democrats obtain
much of their information concerning the
frauds and corruptions by means of which
the republicans have achieved success in the
past, and to which they will be likely to
resort again in future elections. Hon. Mr.
Hastings and Mr. Whitclaw Reid are now
quarreing, and the former in his denuncia-
lions Of the latter tells the world that to
secure Gartield's election the railroad kings
of the country were induced TO subscribe a
large sum upon promises Of favorable Con-

ton went even So far as to include the
promise of a seat on the Supreme bench to
induce the payment Of that sum. During
the decline of the Roman Empire corruption
never exceeded the degree ii has reached in
the Republic of America.
