The memorial recited that the general court of Massaghusetts views with deep concern nt interference of the government of with the rights of fishermen of the United States, and urges congress to secure immediate relief for that class of citizens. Mr. Hoar remarked that there was very natural fecling of uneasiness on the part of the fishermen of Massachusetts over the pres- entconduct of the Dominion government.

Mr. Hoar wished, however, to add that in his judgment it would be necessary to enlarge somewhat the ope of legislation alreardy adobted from the amendment to the shippini bill, and to put it in the power of tne president, when eom- mereial privileges were denied to United States vessels in_foreign ports, to retaliate, not merely by denying ' like privi lezes, but ~ by authorizing the presi- dent’ in his~ discretion to deny all commercial privileges in United States ports to vessels of the powers sodenying, or to ve: sels of any province, colony or deépendenc, of such power, ‘The senate then, at 1 of Mr. Edmunds, sion.

Apart from the claims of justiee, it is not denied that there exists in Treland a general desire for greater control of her own affairs. This desire, within certain limits, the liberal party recognizs as a reason- able claim, The question is, to what extent can it safely be conceded by the government. Lam compelled, therefore, to conclude that within the lines of the government’s plan it is impossible to give adequate protection for those who, it is admitted, need'it.

That line claims that it brings into Peoria at least 60 per cent of the business, where it is picked up by the Indiana, Bloomington & Western, the Peoria, Decatur and Evans- ville and other roads, the Rock Island only getting its proportion to that point in- stead of the Chicago proportion which it claims that it is entitled to.
