Tariff Reform.

Late telegraphic dispatches, say of the tariff bill, now being prepar- ed by the ways.and means commit tee:
 "A prominent Democratic repre- sentative from the East. who has seen as much of the bill as has al- ready been prepared, said that 1t would make q reduction of about ?50,000,000 in duties on imports. On woolens the reduction is about S10,000, ,000, and putting wool on free list, as the bill does, will re- duce the revenue about So,000, 900 more. The tariff on steel rails will be reduced to 4l2 and on pig iron S450. The bill proposes a re- duction of 20 per cent in the duties on sugar. The Democratic mem bers of the committee, however, will not encourage this last reduct- ion unless the other provisions Of the bill are adopted by the House. All manufactured tobacco except cigars and cigarettes will suffer a reduction in taxation of from S20- 0O0,OO0 to S25,O00,0O0. There will be and additional reduction in cotton goods and other articles Of general use. Besides all this the free list will be considerably ne. larged included; wool. coal, oars, lumber and salt with some unim- portant additions.
 The same dispatches state it will be two weeks or more before it is fully prepared and presented to the House by Mir. Mills, char man of the committee.

From the Field.

But the cattle kings whose in terests ramify in Wall street have not been molested, and soft-head ed fools, who pretend to be Wheel CTS and Knights Of Labor, call Cleveland a democrat and a friend of the laboring classes. Dis patch.
 Oh, consistency, where art thou? Dead! Deadi Capt. Ansley would have the people put ont a man like himself, who is. in favor of An. -archists, high tariff, railroads and Ben Butler, who was the greatest cattle king in the gang. Now, Capt. A., l want to inform you in time, that the Wheelers of this county are soft-headed fools enough not to vote for you, nor any man that will uphold your doctrines. We want the tariff re- duced on the necessaries of life,  and that is what we thought was the object of the Wheel, or at least you said in organizingWheels at different places. Now, you try to make us adopt a platform that is not consistent..with our welfare. No, no, Captain, we can not and will not submit to such. What have you done since you was elect ed to represent the people? You have done nothing to alleviate the burden of the people; you have worked regardless of our wishes. 1 an a true Wheeler,

 Yes. Tom McRac is doing very well, and while Gov. Barker k al- so good man, yet it don't pay to swap horses in the middle of the stream. The third term idea doe not apply to congressman but the longer they serve the better fltted they are for the place, and the more influence they have Ouachita Herald.

The argument that a constitu- tional convention would cost S2OO, GOO is very easy exploded. The average time of the constitutional convention in Arkansas taking the four that have been. held in 1886, 1865. 1868 and 1871 is about for ty.five days. Certainly the ex- pense of the body ought not to exceed S1 1000 per day, or S45,OOO for the session. The expense of a legislature is about 5000 per day. If the convention should remain in session sixty days, the expense need not exceed S60. .000. and if to this sum be added Si0,00O for ad- ditional election, should it be nee esssary, we have but 0O0,O0O.- Arkansas Democrat.
 And so that brings the cost down to figure just half what op- posers to the constitutional con- vention make it. It would cost over three times that sum to make and take ten to tweu- ty years to do it, according to the average work of legislature in such work.
