THE El)IlOR’S MAIL.
The Winter Steamers.
SiR.~‘.[.iy I my a [iw words regarding
,the pi-.ibiein propaun ed inthe proposition
laid down in your leading article in issue
_of the l9;h, to wit :- .
“Hwv ein the interests of the entire
island be best served by the two available
winter'steamei‘s under existing circum-
stances."
Your “cali facts" do not include the
whole truth, hence your deductions are
mt quite right, notwithstanding your
evident iairmindness and public spirit.
Addto your facts tha turthsrfact : Ons of
these steamers can carry two or three
times as much cargo as both ol than have
been doing in the busiest season this
winter, provided she were relieved 0! the
mail and passenger service; capacity
has been eacridced to make time.
I make this statement without fear
ol successful contradiction; therefore
giving the Georget own~Pictou route in
operation with the other boat on the
western route carrying the mails and
passengers, the freight problem would be
solved, as it woull then he only a ques-
tion of handling. Now with one of the
steazneri on the western route provided
with and supplemented by the ice boat
service, in-ills and passengers could cross
the straits as often as necessary, two,
three or four times 'a day. You mention
twoother matters unfavourable to the
W te route v' - th ° te hi
es rn iz. e priva owners p
of the N. B. and P. E. I. R. R. and the
condition of Torrn _-ntine Pier. Regarding
the former drawb.1c‘~: you are right but
there is this to be said, if an honest
"desvor were made to utilise and make the
route perui_ine:it.the management of that
road would only be too glad either to sell
orlaase, or work the road as cheaply as
would be c misistent with sound business
principlcgseeing that if they did not do
sa, the Government would be just-iiled in
building a line from Pninsec or Shediae
tothe Cape thus making their property
practically vslueless. Reizarding the
pier let me say that the drawback men
tionsd in the report of survey can be over
como in one day, and at a cost ofavery
sidl sum, that is lor one winter, all that
is needed for present purposes is to keep
ships from laying their bilge too near the
base hlthe structure; this can bc done, as
it iadons in hundreds of cases abroad by
 a mutton' .between "the
"steamer and the quay. In short the boat
oaths western_'route can go within titty
test (morswf llllll ot the ears.
