MARSHALL’S SPEECH

Will Declare Congress Has No Right to Levy Duties. Indianapolis, April 6.—The dissociation of private business Interests and public government as a necessity In the solution of the political and economic conditions of the times will be the theme of Governor Marshall’s speech before the National Democratic club, in New York city, on April 17. The governor has constructed his speech on facjs closely connected with the present of the tariff bill. "I believe,” said the governor, "that there exists no inherent right in congress to assess a duty on any articla brought into this country, because it violates the principle of our government, which provides that no legislation shall be enacted in favor, of one class as against the interests of another.”
