ed to the Full Committee,
And simultaneously Given to the Public,
aS It il the Measure that VIII Go
Before the House for It's
Adoption.

Adoption.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 27.-After weeks
of preparation, involving an exhaustive
study of the subject, from a democratic
point of view. the new tariff, bill is at
last completed and made public.
The bill, it should be explained, is
purely democratic measure. 1t is the
work of the democratic members of the
!. committee, who have jealousy guarded
its details even from their compression
al associates. 1t was not until to-day
that the republican members of the
committee were made acquainted with
its contents, while their knowledge of
the measure during the past fortnight
has been gained wholly from the
printed accounts in the daily press.
Whatever criticism may be made of the
measure from an economic or party
standpoint. it must be admitted that
Mr.. Wilson and his associates have
given their best thought and study to
the work in hand.
The following is a condensed text of
the bill:
