The Fisheries Dispute.

Those who from force of circumstances find
themselves compelled to sustain Mr.. Bayarl in
his course on the fishery question have an I'M
enviable duty to perform. 1t has been openly
admitted by the Canadian press that the har-
as>ment to which our fishermen have been sub
jected is expressly designed to force this coull-
try into accepting treaty under which Cana
dian fish would be admitted duty free. The
Administration before the fishery troubles be-
icy, and Mr.. Hayard has pursued that line. dc>-
pite the protests from our fishermen. The at
tcmpts to make it appear that American fisher
men are claiming special privileges is wholly
unWarrantcd. Upon this point there can he no
better authority than the fishermen themselves.
one of the leading fishing merchants of New
England said in recent interview: Nv hat
we want is not the privilege of fishing in Cana
diam waters, but the same commercial rights in
Canadian ports as are granted Canadian vessels
i'll oHr ports" But this the Administration
has not been disposed to demand. although it
ma, yet be forced into adopting an American
policy. Not only is Secretary Bayard willing
that Canadian vessel, should continue to enjoy
privileges il our ports which are denied to
American vc>svi> in Canadian ports but he has
eNerted all The influence of his position AS the
head of the state Department to secure the sd-
mission of Canadian fish into this country free
of duty. The question is one that vitality affects
