It is, perhaps, quite safe to predict that the Senate will go fully as far as the finance committee rec ommned in this respect. The bill is not satisfactory to those who advocate a liberal cutting down of tariff duties, and they will make every effort to amend it so as to embody their ideas of what a .tariff bill should be. This element seems to be stronger in the Senate than in the House, and hence the tarjlj reformers prefer to start tariff legislation in the former body. The Republicans feel that they mast, as a matter of party policy,1 meet the popular demand for tariff leg islation at this session, and rather than 1 have such legislation fail by reason of the determined opposition of the tariff reformers, they will probably make con - cessions, in the way of reductions which to live and lalor until they were sum-gpucific i3 at Bozeman tunnel, which is m oned to appear in the eternal woi W,8at an elevation of 5565 feet above the that undiscovered country from whosersea.
