A Talk With Speaker Carlisle.

In the course Of general CONVEX.
sation with Speaker Carlisle regard.
ing the political issues of the day he
was asked
"What do you think Of future tar
if legislation ?" and he said:
II think the time is not far off when
public sentiment will compel congress
to reduce the tariff. If the Morrison
resolution should pass, even with the
Senate amendment increasing the re.
serve to S130,000,0O0, VIC will reach
a point within comparatively short
time where a change in policy in re-
iation to the revenue will be absolute
ly necessary. Under the operation Of
the Morrison resolution in a year or
so the whole amount of the bonds
now matured will be paid and large
surplus revenue will continue to be
annually collected from the people.
In such contingency it is evident
that there will be but three lines Of
policy open for consideration. First,
the government must purchase its
own obligations at high premium
or, secondly, Congress must by ex-
travagant and wasteful appropriations
prevent the boarding of immense
sums in the treasury thirdly, it must
reduce the revenue. / think the peo-
pie will demand a reduction Of the
revenue. They will agree with Gen.
jackson in the opinion that the SIM
plcst way to-obviate all difficulties is
to collect only revenue enough ia
meet the wants of the government and
let the people keep the balance Of
their property in their hands for their
own profit"
"Do you think that you can ever
get the question Of reducing the rev.
enue on a non-partisan basis z
II doubt whether VIC will ever be
able to do so. The reduction of the
revenue necessarily involves the q6es,
ton of protection and revenue reform
and consequently every attempt to
abolish taxes presents an issue upon
which the two great political parties
of the country are divided"
"What do you think of the pros
pect of carrying the next House ?"
81 think there is very little doubt
about it. There are 20 districts
now represented by Democrats, in
which the average majority was about
