The fishing operations up there are carried on mostly by people from northern Europe.- - The fish ing is done north and south of prince Rupert, and the catches are assembled at that point' for ship ment . Ketchikan, Alaska, is the next most important fishing point above Prince Rupert in American territory. ' The fish are brought together by power boats, and other large power boats, gathered , the glacial ice floating in the water, the ice being crushed on board. The fish., are then taken to Prince Rupert and: loaded onto freight cars packed in loose ice,' and tak en in train' lots to ' the ' ' interior point e? the tTnltod States - and Can- fil c-j jo tlie"AtIantic coast, f ar.distribution..
