If the trade of Alaska Is worth while
wjiat are we doing to secure It? I will
tell you. On board tjre Stetson 1 no
ticed some bales of musty and moldy
hay. I wondered what they were in
our hold for. At Skagway I learned
with Interest of the fine dairy herd
there the milk sells for 15c a quart
and tlio cows are high grude animals,
as It is not profitable to pay freight on
scrub stock to, Alaska.
Dairyman Disgusted at Portland.
I learned that the owner of the dairy
herd was anxiously awaiting a ship
ment of hay from Portland, as his feed
was nearly out. It seems he had got
ten one shipment of hay from Port
land and received clean, bright alfalfa
hay and saved money on it. A, man in
Haines had also received 10 tons of
hay on the Wand and saved $35 on Scat
tie prices.
The Stetson docked at Skagway and
discharged, with the rest of her cargo
of freight, the bales of spoiled and
musty hay for the dairyman at Skag
way. When the dairyman came down
to see his hay he said:
"Stung again. 1 ought to have
known It. That settles it. I will never
spend another dollar In Portland. This
hay will not even do for bedding, let
alone feed, and the worst of it is I
am out of feed and depended on this
shipment. No. I won't do anything. I
will pay the freight, take my loss and
know better next time. It's the old
story. Portland thinks anything is
good enough for Alaska."
This is one of a large number of
similar complaints registered by Alas
kan merchants againt Portland's Com
mission men and wholesalers. It is
time for us to turn over a new leaf and
deserve Alaska's trade. When we do,
we will get it.

(Salem Bureau of The Journal.)
Salem, Or., April 13. Declaring that
the blue sky law was enacted to pre
vent robbery of unsuspecting people,
andthat legitimate business Is not
opposed to the law, Corporation Com
missioner R. A. Watson today pointed
out some of the efforts being made by
"wildcatters'' and others to discredit
the law.
"There appeared in different papers
through the state, under date of April
2 and 3," ha said, "the following state
nent:
" 'The Oregon blue sky Jaw is being
attacked by a second suit, and-is meet
ing with general opposition from those
seeking ! investments.' This identical
sentence appeared simultaneously in
eastern and southern Oregon, in Mult
nomah county and in Lincoln county
publications. It shows conclusively
that an organized press bureau has
been established for the purpose of
furnishing misleading news items to
the public press, in order if possible
to create public sentiment against the
blue sky law.
"The report of the postmaster gen
eral shows that during the past year
the people of the United States spent
$200,000,000 for worthless stock. Not
for stock of douotful value, but of
such utter worthlessness that the pro
moters were convicted In the federal
courts and sentenced for misuse of the
mails and for fraud. This stupendous
sum is based on convicted cases, and
does not take into consideration those
cases under indictment, or under in
vestigation, "It is to prevent fhis enormous rob-
oerji of unsuspecting people that the
blue sky laws have been passed. It is
because the law is accomplishing its
purpose that the wildcatter, the stock
jobber and the fake promoter are band
ing together to destroy it.
Those Who Oppose It.
"The Oregon law is opposed by two
classes of people:
"1. The promoter of doubtful com
panies and the seller of doubtful secur
ities; whose hands have taken from
the pockets of the people by the law.
"2. The person who does not under
stand the law and whose mind has been
filled with misinformation! by those
of the first class. !
"It is the representatives of the first
clacs who have banded together to
scuttle the Oregon law, if possible, for
personal gain.
"Suits have been filed in Michigan
and in Iowa, attacking the constitu
tionality of the blue sky laws of those
states. These suits were filed b.v the
law firm of Caldwell, Massllch & Reed.
