question at issue berweoal-a iwir J1
eminent democrats Is seemtnglr
never to be disposed of, tariff.
Mr. Mills, from tbe Committee on
wais and means, has reported tbo
senate substitute for bis tariff bill
to the bouse, accrmpanyiog it
wih a resolution declaring that the
senate bill is unconstitutional, and
directing the clerk of the houte to
return it to tbe senate. This of
couise is just so much gammon,
and only means that tbo committee
will oppose tbo senate bill is every
way possible.
Here is where the real right be
gins: A bill which purports to be
an entirely new tariff measure has
been reported from tbe bouse ways
and means committee by Mr. Mc
Millin. In reality it is only tbo
Mills bill witb tbe cotton, metal
and chemical schedule left cut.
Another bill has been reported
from the same committee by Mr.
Breckinridge, which is claimed by
its authors to be a compromise.
It provides lor free woo1, tbe re
peal of tbe tobacco tax, anu con
tains tbe woolen and worsted sched
ules of tbe original Mills bill. All
this is from the free trade wing of
the democratic party. Now lor
the other side: Mr. Randall baa
rcjMirted from tbe aupropristioa
committee, the Cowles internal
reveuue bill which repeals all to
bacco taxes and modifies some of
internal reyenue laws relating to
the manufacture anc sale ot liquors.
Ali cf these bills have beeL refer

and the question is, which, it either
of them will be passed by the
bouse. -:-; . t'
