WE ARE THE LARGEST DEALERS IN RAW AND MANUFACT- *
I RED FURS IN THE NORTHWEST and all we ask of you Mr. Shipper *
• is to give us the chance of a trial shipment and we will convince you that *
we pay more for furs and make quicker returns than you can get any- *
where in the country. W'e have been in business in Alaska for 36 years and *
have built up a very extensive trade. We sell manufactured furs in all *
* parts of the United States. Canada and in a great many European Cities. •
By shipping to us you are not only helping an Alaskan industry but *
you are helping yourself to build up a business that belongs to Alaska. *
We eliminate the middleman entirely as we buy direct from the trap- *
per and trader and sell direct to the consumer, thus we are able to pay *
you a better price than you can get elsewhere. WE MAKR RETURNS *
THE SAME DAY SHIPMENT IS RECEIVED. •
If so desired when your shipment amounts to $106.60 or more, we will *
wire our hid and if not entirely satisfactory you may wire at onr expense* *
and we will ship to any place you designate. *
All we ask of you is to he fair with yourself as well as with us and •
make us a trial shipment, the result will make you a steady shipper. „ *

GOVERNMENT R. R. ROUTE
IS GIVEN GOOD BOOST
Charles T. Clair of Fairbanks ar
rived on the Alameda and is reg *
tered at the Ciastineau hotel* says tin1
Juneau Empire. He came to the coast
from Fairbanks to Seward by the
Broad Pass route. He says it took him
four days to travel from the end of
the steel on the Anchorage end. Mr
Clair said that a number of people
are using this route this winter, in
preference to the Richardson trail.
The road he said, was in good condi
tion.
v“Onc thing is certain,” said Mr.
Clair, “no finer scenic route in the
world will be found than a trip over
the government railroad when it is
finished. This will apply to cithe.*
winter or summer. One also gets a
good idea of the probable resources
of the country, which will be devel
oped by a railroad and feeders, and
by the securing of population an 1
capital.”
