SENATOR HALE DISCUSSES SOME OF THE
PROBLEMS BEFORE IT.

Especial Despatch to the Boston Journal
AUGUSTA, ME-, Nov. Is. Among the
guests of Mr.. Blaine this week were Hon.
Eugene Hale and wife, who spent day
and night at Augusta, returning to Els
worth this afternoon. Your correspon-
dent met the Senator a. he was returning
home, and he talked freely concerning the
/ political situation The Senate Tariff bill
and the position of the Republican party
in regard to it were first discussed.
Now that the Republicans secure entire
| CONTROL what course will they pursue re-
gariing the tariff" was asked Mr.. Hale.
They will adopt a bill substantially
like the Senate bill and. a. John Sherman
said, it i the most complete bill ever pre-
scented to an American Congress. A. two
great features. it reduces the revenues
much more than the Mills bill, and protects
all our great American industries, and will
be substantially the basis OF our tariff leg
slation either in this Congress or the next,
aud the action of the Senate in reporting
it showed the country that the Republican
party was capable of dealing with the
question of reducing the taxation and yet
maintaining the American doctrine OF pro-
lection. In my judgment, If the bill had
not been reported. we should have been on
the run before the election and had t. an
>wer the cry which was heard. especially
IN the West. that the Republican party
did not mean to reduce taxation.
The Democrats now 20 80 far a 10
assert that the Republican party must
adopt the Mills bill or one very similar
to it. before the end Of four years
That's absurd, because the Republicans
are committed to the Senate bill which i
directly opposed TO the Mills bill. The
two are no more alike than black and
white"
Did the House act wisely"
The Republicans of the House took
very timely action. and were very useful
in exposing the weakness OF the Mills bill.
But they failed 10 20 forward, aud, in
addition To that Law ont a Republican pro-
gramme that included both reduction and
protection"
But viii the House pass the senate

Il think not. The Senate. however,

much from it, own bill II the Senate
