the Tariff Bill.

WASHINGTON, April 2.-The report

men and others on the produced reduc-

port declares that the Republican party
favors tariff reduction, but would have
this made only with due regard to the
interests of manufacturers, labOring
men and producers generally, and after
full hearings of their opinions. 1t states
that although the Democratic party
has had control of the house for five
wears and has made tariff reduction its
battle cry, it has passed no such bill,
while the Republicans have reduced
the tariff over 100000, 900 between 1869
and 1888. The action of the majority in
respect to wool is pointed to as direct
slap on the part of the South at the
North.
The minority regard this bill not as
revenue reduction measure, but as
direct attempt to fasten upon this cOun-
try the British policy of free foreign
trade. So viewing it. their sense of OBJ
legation to the people, and especially
the working people employed in manu-
featuring and agricultural in all sec
.tions of our common country impel
them to resist it with all their power.
They will assist the majority in every
effort to reduce the redundant income
of the government in direct and prac-
ticable way, but every effort at fiscal
legislation which will destroy or en-
feeble our industries, retard material
development OR tend to reduce our labor
to the standard of other countries, will
be met with the persistent and deter
mined opposition of the minority repre-
Sented in the house.

Burlington system, are in favor OF

ceeded to this city. He returned to New
Richmond and notified Marshal Dodge,

found the men at the Hudson depot and
arrested them. The money, excepting
