bare justice to them should cause impartial public

As democrat, am opposed to monopolies of all
kinds, either in the shape Of interpretations other
associations. The New York pilots say, they SEEK
no monopoly; but they simply protest against tho
voluntary continuation attempting to force ono upon
them in the way OF licences, fees, &c. That they
would prefer for the business .cmain free and
open; but if they are to be regulated, they would
prefer to be governed by a law Of Congress, or he
legislature.
