Tiiat tha Panama Canal will ba one
of the most Important factors la build
ing up tha Pacific Coast tttatea la the
conviction of Mortimer Flelahbacker.
banker and paper manufacturer of San
Francisco, who was in Portland yes
terday. Mr. Flelshhacker la a director
of the Panama-Paclflc Exposition Cor
poration, of San Francisco, and In con
nection with that enterprise he says
ha haa found sentiment throughout tha
Coast states favorable toward San
Francisco In Its endeavor to secure the
location for tha exposition.
"The people of Portlind Impress ma
as being especially Interested in tna
proposed exposition." said Mr. Flelsh
hacker. "They appear to take tha
broad view that the fair will result in
tha promotion of every locality on tha
Paclflc Coast- There Is no doubt that
a great percentage of the visitors will
Include Portland on their Itinerary
either bound for the fair or on their
homeward trips. The fair will b tha
means of bringing thousands of peo
ple to Portland and Oregon.
Portland has made a great growtn
since I last visited the city. Tha solid
ity of Us business Interests particu
larly impresses a visitor. By all odds
Portland Is In the best position finan
cially of any city on tha Coast at tha
present time. Portland has a great fu
ture. I believe that your cltixens do
not fully realize what Is In store for
Portland.
"The banking Institutions of Port
land are strong, and the banking busi
ness Is conducted alonir most safe and
conservative lines. The strength of
the financial situation of Portland Is
due to the methods ,f ollowed by your
bankers. X
Relative to tha Panama-Pacific Ex-
position, the people of San Francisco
have shown characteristic w esiern en
terprlse in providing fundr. With atste
and Federal appropriations, wa will
have the sum of I17.500.0C0 available
for the fair. We believe tbaT. we have
everything In our favor over New Or-
leana as the place tor reieoraiing mi
opening of the canal. e nave a su
perior climate, better water and many
mora points of Interest for tha edlflca
tlon of tha visitors.
San Francisco has constructed over
100 hotels since the big Ore. and witn
tha many hotels In Oakland and other
near-by cities wa will have splendid
accommodations. The site for the pro-
nosed exDosltlon has not been deter
mined upon as yet. but It Is likely to
be the Golden Gate Park, which is one
of tha finest and most attractive parks
In the siate."
Mr. Fit-lshhacker ana nts Drotner, Her
bert Flelshhacker. of the London-Paris
National Bank of San Francisco, are
recocntxed as among tha leading finan
cial giants of the Pacific Coast. Beside
their immense bank, the largest commer
