Lat web, Ivy the close vote Of
lbs 20 l40 the National HoasC OF
Representative decided 10 take W
the Morrison Tariff Bill.
There wvIe two reports in regard
to the ui.i from the Committee on
WAYS and Mans. The majority
report came from the Democratic
members Of the Committee, and the
minority report from the Rcpuhli.
can members. There were also sc
Democrats, headed 10y Randall, who
opposed the bill in cauc IL. The
points made in opposition to the
bill ny the minority report are briefly
the following:
!. The manufacturing and in.
du,trial interest Of the country have
earnestly protested against the
passage of the bill.
3 The bill, if it becomes a law,
will unsettlc values, rctard incipicnt
enterprises and cripple those already
est ablishcd.
3. The bill would of necessity
force down the rate Of wages in the
Uuitei States, and thus prove 4
damage and q curse t the working
men Of tie country.
4. 1t wOull lead to large in.
crease in our foreign importati2ns:
and hence, instead Of r,dlciag tho
revenues OF the Government, it would
increase them.
5, TIE bill has none Of The mer;ta
Of q carefully proposed tariff bill,
but makes Il 20 per cent reduction
on tariff rates, without any regard
to the conditions affecting specific
articles to which the reduction is
uudis criminately applied.
Such are the l,a linz POINTS Sc
forth ia lie minority report. Mr.
Morrison, Of course, does not expect
to get Ills Till through both Houses
Of Congress and then get TIE sigma
ture Of the President 70 it. 1t is
10y no means certain that it VII get
enongh Democratic support to be
passed by tie Hou,c Of Representa-
tives. The main theory Of the
movement Is to make q Democratic
record Tor the pending Presidential
election; and should the Democrats
in the House Of Representatives pass
the bill, they will furnish = very
good reas,n II vi tie pe.pte should
repudia'e the Democratic party ~
