do not expect to make any money this year, notwithstanding the somewhat increased rates. We have made re- peated attempts to charter govern ment vessels, but always found that it would mean very heavy loss to do so. It is an impossibility for any. one to come out even on any Alaska business at the charter rates now in effect, and if the territory goes into the steamship business with chartered boats they want to be prepared to lose a good many thousands of dollars on each vessel each year.
 If the government should put boat on the run to Cape Nome it wound simply mean that we, would withdraw cur steamer Senator, as she is profit ably employed in other trade, and un- less we can get all the business, and at increased rates, she would lose Southwestern and Southeastern Alaska.
 There is only so much business to handle, and if the territory puts on vessels it will leave us free to with draw some of ours for more profitable trades. We are hanging on to the Alas ka business and providing the best service we can, with the hope that the future may reward us.
 It is useless for us to openly oppose the proposed legislation, as we would be accused of mis-statements and vari- ous other crimes, whereas we are playing an honest steamship game, with every desire to build up Alaska and all of her industries, realizing that we can have no success unless we do assist in building up Alaska. Our cards are all on the table and if the people of Alaska wish to freeze out the legitimate transportation com panies there will still be cargo and passengers to carry in other trades.
