Success of the Portland Steamship
.mpany In ltB invasion of the Alaska
territory Is assured.
The consensus of opinion at a meet
ing of stockholders held in the Cham-bf-r
of Commerce offices yesterday
afternoon was that the missionary
work of the line is well on the way,
: and that while another year of hard
work remains, success looms beyond.
ana tne presen: line should go on.
With this spirit prevailing, a com
mlttee of seven businessmen to work
with the directors of the company and
the presidents of the Commercial club
and the Chamber of Commerce was
authorlied, and will be appointed by
Jay 8. Hamilton, president of the line.

and means of cementing the founda
tion already placed, and report to the
stockholders again at a meeting to be
held Friday evening.
Encouraging- Mews.
Encouraging news greeted the ears
of the merchants and stockholders
when C. H. Burckhardt, president of th
Alaska-Pacific Fisheries company, was
called on by President Hamilton.
"The business is there waiting for
you," he said. "'Got up and go after It
We will have 13.000 tons of freight
next summer which we will gladly give
you, and to Show you that we mean
business we will head a stock subscrip
tion list with a contribution of $10,000.
"We must have better steamers to
handle the business, however, and with
vessels capable "of carrying 200 pas
sengers each and at least 160o tons of
. -freight, the line wUl be equipped to
"bundle any and all business that may
be sent its way. I know the feeling of
Alaska people, and know that they
need only the asurance of permanency
to switch thel" accounts to Portland."
It was shown at the meeting that
the present steamers had carried a
total northbound tonnage of 13,630
tons of general merchandise and 2,643,
490 feet of lumber. Southbound salmon
sfferlngs ha,ve amounted to 5300 tons
Df canned salmon, 1142 tons of mer
chandise, 1490 tons of lime and 625
tons of gypsum.
Great Future Ahead.
Consensus of opinion was that this
was only a starter and that with bet
.er steamers, the larger business that
Is bound to be done in the north next
year will come in this direction and
that the Portland Steamship company
will get Its share.
"Our salvation lies In trading with
the north, said C. S. Jackson. "A
generation or two llvine in this won
derful climate of ours brings stagna-
tlon and laziness to a man and we
must Infuse with ours the blood of the
north. The trade of that northern
.country within the next few years
will amount to a tonnage of which we
have no Idea and the Portland Steam
ship company offers our last chance
to get It and keep it. By trading with
the north we can bring the people of
the north here, our people will become
a part of that country, will- migrate
there and become imbued with the
same energetic spirit which charac
terizes everything up there and sooner
or later we will become a great people
here."
A concerted effort Is to be made to
have an even larger attendance at the
meeting Friday evening when the re
port of the working committee which
Jay 8. Hamilton, president of the com
pany will appoint today, will be read.

EXPLOSION OF SEWER. GAS
Disturbance Causes "Tidal Ware"
on Water Front.
An explosion of sewer gas from the
Stark street sewer which has its out
let under the boat house of the harbor
patrol, last night lifted the launch
Klidor nearly out of the water, rocked
the boat house more violently than do
the swells from the largest steamers
on the river and threw water over
everything about the place.
Engineer Clarence Gilliland and
Frank Masters were seated in front of
the stove about 11 o'clock last night.
The only sound they heard was a light
.swishing, but the next instant the
houseboat commenced to careen wildly.
The Elidor moored in the after part
of the house, leaped forward, her bow
denting the wall two feet above the
height of the boat, "while the scratches
on the boat showed two feet below the
deck. A wire cable used to restrain
the boat snapped from the strain.
The engineering department of the
bureau of public works is now extend
ing the nd of the sewer out into the
river an additional 60 feet.
COSTS TO BE INVESTIGATED
Chamber of Commerce Will Probe
Waterfront Conditions.
Following disclosures by the Port
land Steamship Company that It cost
more to operate a steamer out of this

port on the Pacific coast, the transpor
tation committee of the Portland Cham
ber of Commerce is to be asfced to in
vestigate conditions with a view to
putting this port on an even footing
with Puget Sound and California ports.

HOW TO PREVENT
ACID STOMACHS AND
FOOD FERMENTATION
By a Stomach Specialist. !
As a specialist who has spent many I
years in tho study and treatment of
stomach troubles, I have been forced !
to the conclusion that moat people i
who complain of stomach trouble pos- !
sess stomachs that are absolutely :
healthy and normal. The real trou
ble, that which causes all the pain
and difficulty, is excessive acid In
the stomach, aggravated by food fer
mentation. Hyper-acidity Irritates the
delicate lining of tbe stomach and
tood fermentation causes wind, which
distends the stomach abnormally,',
causing- that full bloated feeling. ,
Thus both acid and fermentation in- i
terlere with and retard the process i
of digestion. The stomach Is usually
healthy and normal, but irritated al-
most past endurance by these foreign I
elements acid and wind. In all such
cases and they comprise over 90 per ;
cent of all stomach difficulties the
first and only step necessary is to ',
neutralize the acid and stop the fer- j
mentation by taking In a little warm j
or cold water immediately after eat- j
ins. from one to two teaapoonfuls of 1
bisurated magnesia, which is doubt- j
less the best and only really effective
antacid and food corrective known.
The acid will be neutralized and the 1
formentation stopped almost instant- j
ly, and your stomach will at once 1
proceed to digest the toon in a
Good Spirits

digestive organs work naturally and
regularly. Tbe best eorrectfre and
preventive yt discovered for Irregu
