Stetson at dock. "Get behind it." ' This is the terse and forceful ad vice of C. A. Burckhart. president of the Alaska Pacific-- Fisheries company, to the merchants and people of Port land in respect to the Portland-Alaska steamship line. The opportunity is there, and It Is golden. Alaskans like Portland and are willing to trade with her. Alas kans are entirely In sympathy with Portland In her venture. Get behind the line. Show the people of Alaska that you are wholly in earnest about the proposition and It will be an un qualified success." This is the way Mr. Burckhart sizes up the 'situation. He is in Portland for a few days, called home from his canneries at Yes Bay and Chomly by the Illness of his mother. Just pre vious to returning to Portland he vis lted Ketchikan, Wrangel, Petersburg, Douglas, Juneau and Haines. "Everywhere I went," he said yes terday, "1 found the people most en thusiastic over the Portland line. But they all fear Portland Is not sincere. Portland fell down on them onca be fore. Now they want to be shown. They want some assurance that the line is to be permanent. If this Could be given them the volume of busi ness would be materially Increased and the line would be a positive suc cess. "To give them this assurance all the merchants, all the people qf Portland must get behind the line. Show the Alaskans that you are In earnest with a big business proposi tion. Cven now the tonnage of the Portland boats is greater than any of the Individual boats running out of Puget Sound and It must not be for gotten that trade conditions In Alas ka at the present time are comparable to those In the rest of the oountry "The merchants- of Portland need to send more-men to Alaska to solicit the - Alaskan's trade, and they should take care to send only men who are familiar with the Alaskan trade. With the Alaskan people full of sympathy for Portland salesmen knowing condi tions there they oannot fall to get business. In fact, they should get all the tonnage the boats can handle. . 'The Alaskan people are satisfied with the service but greater care should be exercised in the packing. There was some complaint about this at first and as the freight rata is the same on either high grade or low grade stuff, the greatest care should be used, for invariably the Alaskan buys for' himself the best there Is, and, of -course, he wants to receive It in good shape. Fack your goods a little better than the other fellow and you'll get the business. . "Up at Juneau I find that all the butter used is Portland butter and ,.that a large number of eggs come from here.
