OULD it be worth your while to own this building, collect all the rents,
pay all of the operating expenses, pocket all of the net trrofits arl
independent of everybody and everything for thirty years? If you haven't
enough money to buy this building, you cannot do this. Undoubtedly you have
enough, however, to own part of this buildings participating in your share of the
profits, and make exactly the same percentage as though you owned the entire
building. If ownership of the entire building is beyond your means, remember
that the ownership of part of it is just exactly as profitable an investment.
A Few
Strong Points
This building is about to be
built on the northwest corner
of Fourth and Alder streets.
It will be eight stories high,
of concrete reinforced with
steel, and covering an area of
iooxioo feet.
It is within a radius of two
blocks of the Postoffice, Port
land Hotel, Marquam Building,
Oregonian Building, Olds,
Wortman & King, Perkins Ho
tel, Rothchild Building, Couch
Building, Chamber of Com
merce, the new Ladd buildings,
Lipman & Wolfe, Meier &
Frank, Woodard & Clarke's,
store, Corbett Building, Sweet-Head-Lemcke
Building, Hon
eyman Hardware Co., Belve
dere Hotel and every streetcar
line that enters the city of
Portland.
On the. present basis ;, the
rental values that the building,
will earn are $75,000 a year, in
creasing as Portland grows.
Rental space is already in de
mand, the basement, entire
ground floor and second floor
having been contracted for.
Applications covering almost
all of the balance of the build
ing have been received, are on
file and are pouring in daily.
This demand for office room
assures an average annual in
come for 30 years of 9 per cent
on whatever amount yon care
to invest, from $100 up to
$100,000.
Notice to present tenants
has been given to vacate with
in 30 days, and on the first of
May the present shacks will be
torn down and the construc
tion of this magnificent new
building will be commenced.
Is a solid, substantial con
crete structure like this, in the
heart of a city to have one-half
a million population in 1912,
sufficient security for you for
the investment of $100 and up?
If so, make application for
our Profit-Sharing Unit Bonds
without delay, as they are
being subscribed very rapidly.

The above sketch is a preliminary elevation drawing of MULTNOMAH TRUST BUILDING NO. 1, showing sub
stantially what our architects propose and along the lines we will follow when we commence building, on or about
the first day of May, of this year. You may become a part owner of this building upon the most logical terms ever
offered. Delay and the opportunity will be denied forever, as this building is very nearly financed at the present time.
The wealthiest and most representative merchants and
business men of Portland hold many of these units
A Few
Suggestions
Any property, security, bond
or stock certificate that you
own that is paying you less
than 9 per cent annually you
can profitably dispose of and
invest in MULTNOMAH
TRUST BUILDING NO. 1
Profit-Sharing Unit Bonds.
If you have a son or daugh
ter that you wish to start off
in life with a comfortable
. amount of money on hand, in
vest from $1000 to $5000 in
these Profit-Sharing Unit
Bonds, and by the time 'that
child reaches the legal age it
will have enough accumulated
money to engage in almost any
business.
What is Portland going to
do for office room when it
reaches the half million stage?
Can you answer this question
without admitting that an in-
vestment in the Profit-Sharing
Unit Bonds of MULTNO-
MAH TRUST BUILDING
NO. 1 is high-grade, first-class
and exceptionally profitable?
Inasmuch as you cannot own
a building of this kind, why
isn't it reasonable, sane and
logical that you should own as
much of it as you possibly can?
Whether you own a whole
building, one-half of it, one
fourth of it, one-eighth of it,
one-hundredth of it or one
thousandth of it, the per cent
profit on the investment will be
exactly the same as though you
owned it all. Everybody who
invests in these Profit-Sharing
Unit Bonds shares and shares
alike in proportion to the
. amount invested.
The men who are the lead
ing real estate operators on the
Pacific Coast tell us that within
two years the unit plan of own
ership in business blocks and
other big real estate projects
will be financed on the unit
basis. This company is the
pioneer of the unit plan of own
ership in the City of Portland
and offers an opportunity un
known to this city heretofore.
MULTNOMAH TRUST
BUILDING NO. 1 offers a
similar proposition to that of
the Trustee Company of Seat
tle, which has' made hundreds
of thousands of dollars for its
unit owners and has built sev
en large structures.
