L. Muhroe, government agent at Atlln (a Liberal appointee), to Norman Watt's position, stating that the position is being filled by a Liberal, therefore the dismissal could not be considered m making an opening so that a Conservative might get the position. I That Is not the point at issue. Nobody in Prince Rupert Is concerned whether Norman A. Watt , is a Liberal or Conservative, but ;they are concerned that an 'honorable, efficient, painstaking and courteous official, an upright and loyal Canadian land a battle scarred veteran of the great war shuold be summarily dismissed for political activity when everyone who has I 'come in contact with him in his official or social position knows that the reason given, is only subterfuge . Mr. Watt Is a northern man, having lived for years Irt the Yukon and northern British Columbia. He has pioneered with us, knows our sentiments and our aspirations, therefore it behooves I the men of the north to get behind land stay behind him (Irrespective of political affiliations), until the j wrong is righted, and if Mr. Shelly jand his ilk in the south treat us only as a few scattered pioneers 'whose opinions and rights are of There were a number of large j 4Uch ,ittle Importance that they American schooners in with hali-jcan get away with such methods, but for thia morning's sale on thelthn 1 think il 19 hih ilme for the Fish Exchange.
