that

it
is

What
does
this

It

that

Editor.
Daily
News,
I
have
read
with
interest
a
letter
published
In
The
Daily
News
of
Friday,
the
7th
inst.,
written
by
a
gentleman
sign
tag
himself
."A
Member
of
the
Board
ef
Trade."
To
say
the
least,
I
consider
him
very
inconsistent.
He
says:
"Why
should
the
Board
of
Trade
be
called
upon
to
deal
with
such
contentious
subjects?
Is
is
fair
that
individual
members
shotfld
be
placed
in
such
a
posi
tion?"
Then
he
proceeds
to
give
an
in
dividual
member's
biased
view
In
favor
of
Howe's
canners
proposals
I
believe
that
the
Board
of
Trade
Is
a
democratic
body,
where
the
ma
ority
rules.
Then,
why
not
be
man
enough
to
fight
it
out
on
floor
of
the
meeting,
Instead
of
trying
to
stab
the
board
and
the
fishermen
in
the
back
through
the
medium
of
the
press
before
the
meeting
takes
place.
He
says
that
during
the
past
week
or
two
he
has
discussed
the
matter
with
Independent
seiners
and
gillnetters,
and
they
seem
to
feel
some
such
steps
will
have
to
be
taken
to
assist
them
in
earning
a
living.
This
means
that
he
wishes
the
public
to
believe
that
the
Howe's
canners
proposals
are
a
"cure-all'
Instead
of
a
monopoly.
If
the

will
take
