W. E. BAW YEE, OUR WASHINGTON LETTER. (From our Regular Correspondent.) Washington, Dee. IO, 1887. The general drift of Democratic comment on tho President's brtof nmi prac! ?cul message to Congress, bestows Hie highest praise on that document. Indeed, many,of Mr. Cleveland's warmest admir?is tn Congress exultingly declare that it is tin; most pithy and courageous State paper issued since tho day* of .Jackson. There is naturally tl chorus ol" discordent notes uttered in an undertone, but tluit the Pres ident's view- are those of tho Dem ocratic masse.', there is llttlo rea son to seriously doubt. With '< ho President and the Bpctikor of tho Mouse cordially concurring upon tin; absolute necessity of turill're form, that question dwarfs all oth ers and becomes the chief political issue of the limes. Democrats flif l"f as to the pill lictlbir methods of reaching tho desired result ot re dacting internal taxation, hut nil egree that a reduction is tho coun try's only chance of financial re demption. And here in Washington, il is (ho universal opinion of nil tho pol iticians thai tho tariff question will ho tho chief factor in tho Presiden tial contest of 1 888.
