The canadians and the Fishery Ques-
sc. Louis Republican.

st. Louis Republican.
One would suppose from the complaints
made by the New England fishermen
against the fishery treaty that all it's
disadvantages fall upon them and all it's
benefits go to the Canadians; but it appears
that the treaty is no more favorite on
that side the line than it is on this The
Canadians are as ready for its abregation
as our fishermen are. for they regard the
right which it gives to New England fish,
ermen of taking fish in Canadian waters as
OF much greater value than the right it
gives them of bringing their fish into the
United States free of duty. 1t is not
the duty on fish that we care about" the
Canadians say. but your participation in
our fisheries. The duties are always paid
by the consumer and if you impose duties
on fish. you must pay them Don't par
ticipate in our fisheries and we wont care
snap for your duties. We can catch
flsh cheaper than you can, and if you do
not have Canadian competition, the cost
will be so increased to consumers that fish
will vanish from your tables as an article
OF diet, for. you get up such an array of
appliances, expensive outfits and the like,
that 1t costs you a great deal to catch fish,
and all this increased cost the consumer
must pay" In other words, the Canadi-
ans argue that if we insist on repeling
their cheap 6sh and taxing ourselves
for the benefit OF New England fishermen,
our salt fish will cost us more than we
can afford to pay for them, and we shall
cease to use them as an article of diet-a
view of the case which has good deal of
truth in it, Our fishermen, they add, are
exnausting their fisheries; they do such a |
rushing business" For these reasons
they are ready to have the treaty abrogat-
ed and matters restored to the old posi-
tion-they to have the fisheries to them.
selves, and we to levy high duties on their |
fish, if we think we can afford to.
