Seattle Mail Talks ol Alas
kan Trade
K. R. Novak, who c ime to Alaska for j
the Seattle Commercial Club to study
northern conditions and to inquire into
complaints squints Seattle business
methods, has returned to the ijueen
City, after visiting Southeastern Alas- 1
ty' towns. Fairbanks. Nome and other
pk es. lie makes some interest :l
observations concerning Alaska.
Chieilv does he dwell upon the great
ness of the northern country and the
desireability of holding its business.
Speaking of some of the conditions
in the uorth which it would be well Cor
those sreking it strading to know,
that they might avuid hostile criticism,
Mr. Novak said to the Seattle people:
"Alaska is a 'brand' country, and the
consumer insist? upon having only such |
goods as 1km r brands familiar to him.
He will accept no substitute. There is
absolutely no demand for cheap or!
shoddy goods in Alaska, a? the coudi-l
tions call for only the best goods, and!
the consumer comes to know these by
the brand and to rely upon that for
guidance as to quality,
"Alaska merchants are too far away
from Seattle to keep iu touch with the
fluctuations of the market. Seattle '
merchants must learn to advise the!'
retailers in Alaska immediately of any
changes in the price lists. There is I
naturally very strenuous objection to j
overcharges.
"Send the best salesmen and repre
t :ativ?t to Alaska: in fact, it would
p?v any nouse seeking a large trade to i
send one of its highest officials ta study :
conditions."
Mr. Novak thinks there is not a great
feeling against Seattle business men s
among Alaskans as has been repre
sented. i
