The President has again outmatched tn
Republicans of the Senate, and thi
time he Is after them with sffarI
stick, which they cuts and points
themselves and then placed in hi
hands when they rejected the fishefie
treaty. In all the contests betweel
the President and the Senate he 3ha

The rejection By the Senate of the
treaty lately negotiated for the settle.
ment and adjustment of the differences
existing between the United States and
Great Britain concerning the rights and
privileges Of American fishermen in
the ports and waters of British North
America, seems to justify survey OF
the condition 10 which the pending
question is thus RENTED.
: The treaty upon this subject, ? con
cfuded In 1918, through Disbursements
as to the meaning of It's terms, has
been fruitful source Of irritation and
trouble. Our citizens engaged in fish
ing enterprises in waters adjacent to
canada have, been subjected to numer-
Gus avexatiOus, iiteffereiices and an
-hoyallces; their vessels have, been
seized upon pretexts, which appeared lid
be entirely inadmissible,, and they have
otherwise been treated BY the Canadian
authorities and officials in q manner
ineScusanis harsh and oppressive.
This conduct has beer Justified by
Great BFitainand Canada by the claim
That aStfeaty of 1878 pernnitted it,f and
upon the ground that it was necessary
to Canadjanyint terests.f ,eNveE deny that
treaty agreements Justify these acts,
and we further maintain that, aside
from amy treaty restraints, of disputed
interpretation, the relative position 5of
the United States and Canada ass near
neighborsr the growth of our Joint com
mefce, the development and prosperi-
ty of both countries, which amicable
relations surely guTShtee; and above
all, theliheEaIt ty always extended by
the United States to the people OF
Canada, furnished iii iihtives ferkirlda1ss
