at the President's last annual message
had discussed ths subjects usually DIS

future, and suggested that It might be
done b7 repeal Of the Internal revenue
laws, or by reduction OF tha tsrif, or by
reduction OF each Of the two, sad re-
ierfsd the question 10 the wisdom OF
Congress IS &c the mode CT making the re.
ductlon.
