INAsMUCH as the fisheries treaty and
the appropriation bills will occupy the
attention of the senate during the next
two weeks, there has been no necessity
for the senate committee on finance to
hasten action on the tariff bill, which
has been in preparation for some time.
Members of the subcommittee having
the bill in charge say IL will be ready
to report to the full committee before
the middle of next week, and that there
is no prospect of its coming up in the
senate before the Goth inst. limitations
are thrown out, however, that the pub
lie will be surprised at the brevity OF
the debate on the tariff bill, and that an
effort is to be made to past it by the end
of the first week in September.

A WASHINGTON correspondent has the
following explanation for the non-ap-
pearance Of Growers letter:
The non-appearance of Cleveland's
letter of acceptance has given rise to the
rumor that the delay is caused by fear
on the part of the president that if il
should come out before the big demon
stration on the reception of Mr.. Blaine
next week, the "plumed knight" would
pay it some attention, and as it were,
tear it to pieces. Of course Mr.. Blaine
would be able to give it due notice al
any future time, but if he should allude
to it in his reception, which is to be the
real opening of the Republican cam
paign, it would be apt 10 attract more
general attention than afterward. Hence
the delay.

A CITIZEN of Des Moines, Iowa, has
written lengthy letter to DR.. Brooks,
the Prohibition candidate for yice-presi-
dent in which he shows up the incon-
sistent position of the third party patri-
OTIS very clearly. The letter is so long
that we can not find room for it entire,
but there is one point which the gentle
man makes which is so good that We clip
it and would commend it to the careful
reading of those Prohibitionists who as
sumo that their third party monopolizes
all the temperance sentiment, and that
the voter who does not favor this ticket
is open to denunciation as a whiskyite.
The letter is addressed openly to Brooks
as follows:
You have much to say of 'conscience votes"
which you assert that the Prohibitionists who
do not agree with your wild-goose, third-party
movement are not acting according TO their
conscientious convictions. As you and are
co-workers in the same church and acting to-
gether religiously, 1t is query TO me when
Won became the keeper of the consciences of

any such position, for certainly where there
are five Prohibitionists who VIII not vote your

egoistic sense IL say have done as much for
the cause of prohibition as you have. You

A letter has been received in this city
within the past two days from Mr..

THE MILLS TARIFF BELL.

After g struggle of almost three months R. 6. Mills and his Democratic eoadjutOrs, of the Ways and Means Committee, have evolved tariff bill, and in the sweeping reductions which it eontemplates the fears of the West are fully realized
 In the framing of the bill the policy laid down in President Cloveland's s message has been closely adheared to, and it now remains to be seen wheth- CT or not ihe Democrats in Congress will commit themselves to a policy so unpopular in States which it is neees- sary should be by every means con ciliated, if victory at the polls in No vember next is hoped for It is hard ly possible, however, that representa- -rives from those States whose leading industries are menaced by the Mills bill will have the temerity to go eoun- ter to the wishes of their constituents.
 The bill provides that wool shall be placed oI1 the free list after the 1st of July next. A large number of artl- 1ies are enumerated from winch 1t is proposed to remove the duty entirely. California would suffer by the enact ment of the bill frsm placing on the free list lumber, salt, borax, quicksil- yer, prunes, currents, plums, dates and figs, among its chief productions Copper ores also are to be admitted free. Large reductions are made on ingot copper, Chili bars, old copper clippings for re-manufacture, rolled plates, sheets, plpes etc; also on lead ores, pigs and bars.
 The extension of the free list wlll amount to about $22, ,250,000 and the entire reduction contemplated is estl. mated at S53, 3,OOOO0
 The very slight reduction to be made on iron and steel IS evidently in. tended as a concession to the Randall contingent.
 We mss our guess if the bill, should it reach Congress in its present shape IS not easily dsfeas sed.
