He was asked, since they were so friendly to Mr. Carisle, why they did not botp hin get a tarif Dill through. “We will,” he rep “some of us mean to do so." It ts spoken as probable that the republicans will a3 a party decide not to oppose the considera- ton of the tarifl, and they may attempt to defeat any tariff reform project by introducing as a sub- Stitute for the democratic measure some Dill of their own with tore of the essence of protection in it and chance tt to get the vote of tho protec- tonlst democs ‘The Delayed Pacitic Railroad Report.
