Washington Letter on tariff bill and political maneuvering
The Washington Letter reports a heckling remark by Senator Faulkner and a partisan crowd in the Senate praising the tariff bill's impending signature. It notes Democratic tensions over tariff policy, the Coxeyite camps crackdown, and House support for a $200,000 Atlanta exposition appropriation. It covers opposition to a Sun Dry Civil appropriation site, and Public Printer Benedict urging urgent measures for the Government Printing Office.
