The Revenue Reduction.

WASHINGTON, March 6.-The total
reduction in revenue made by the bill
presented to the Ways and Means Com
n1ittee to-day is about S25, 100000, made
up of$20, 100000 on tobacco and S5,OGO,-
900 on various special taxes removed.
The presentation of the bill was the sig
nal for vigorous onslaught by the Re
publican members upon their Demo-
cratic colleagues. They roundly de-
nounced the majority for their conduct
in the preparation of this and the tariff
bill, and their Indignation was height
ened when the proposition was put and
carried, despite their objection, to con-
tolidate in one measure the tariff and
revenue bills.

In commenting on the base ball article
inithe, ADVERTISER of last week the Rapid
City Journal takes occasion to give this
paper a rub for being SO outspoken on
matters generally Of public concern.
The ADVERTISER admits that it is a
fearless rexponent'of the rights OF the
people. 1t is Independent. It believes
in the freedom OF the press, and if an
individual sets himself up for a public
stool-pigeon this paper proposes to take
shot at him. every time the occasion
will justify,it, believing this to be one of
the principal duties of the press. While
the ADVERTISER. always maintains due
regard for the rights and privileges Of a
corporation OF an individual, it does not
stop to consider whether it will gain Is
cents or lose its annual pass whenever
questions arise that shelh be discussed
through the columns OF a newspaper.
Speaking more<plainlg: the ADVERTISER
has no fear of,voieing. the sentiments Of
the public.
