"It behooves the Jobbera and manu facturers of the city of Portland to get a lively move on themaelvea and hustle for Alaska business," said one of. the Jobbers who has been working' on the Alaska ateamahlp problem. "The steam ship' company that haa agreed to run a Una from Portland la responsible and roeana what It says. All the transpor tation company wants la tonnage.

"It ia not to be expected that a ateam ahlp company will take boats out of a profitable and established trade and put them into an experlmentai.tradeThey want the trade established to the extent that they know will be sufficient topay sinenses- from the start.
