TO TUB EDITOR 01' •THK rRESS." Sir, —"Common Sen«r might have gone even further than he div in criticising the proposal ot the Premier to run a line of steamers to cany p:oduee to West of England porte. 11 the colony is not careful in this matter, it wni find itself in the position of the boy and the nute. In Messrs W. weddel end Co.'s annual review of tho frozen meat trado for last year appears the following paragraph on page 5: —"lne direct trade between South American ports and London showed considerably greater expaneion than tho ArgentineLiverpool trade, and it was only tho difficulty of securing freight that prevented the still more rapid growth ot the former. Thus, while Australasian shippers aro seeking to extend taeir trade to outports in the United Kingdom, Argentine shippers now appear to be laying themselves out to cater most vigorously for the London trade.' This statement needs no comment. —\oure, C C EYE ON THE MAIN CHANCE.
