TRYING TO FIND A
HEV CHINESE QUARTER
Two Factions Seek Locations In
Different Parts of the
City., ;
Prominent Second street Chines mer
chant are in a quandary a to. the
wisest plaa to pursue In establishing a
new - Chinese quarter. Several of the
leading and wealthiest oriental In the
city are la favoivof remaining In - the
district north of 'Washington or Morri
son streets, alleging that the north end
of the city will always remain- tha best
business district, while Beid Back, ths
best-known Chinaman In Oregon, and
Moy Back Hln, tbe Imperial consul for
the northwest, have purchased property
on Salmon street and will erect a large
building which they hope to flu with
Chinese merchaata and roomers.
Those favoring ths northern and baVe
been quietly seeking a large site north
of Washington street, upon which they
propose to erect a huge building that
will become a center ef Chinese activity
and ultimately beopma the nucleus of
an exclusively Chinese quarter. The
exact location thst Is being sought could
not be learned, but It waa uggestsd that
somewhere on Fifth - street north of
Burnslde, or in the vicinity ef the Fed
eral building on Park er Seventh streets
would be tbe final choice.
The Chinese realise that they must
give up their old district on Second
street, between Pine and Salmon, that
ha been known aa Chinatown for the
past to years. Property In that quarter
ha become toe valuable for Chin ess oc
cupancy. Their business will not stand
the rent, that that property will very
soon command. With the completion of
the new passenger station by the Port
land 1 Railway company. It Is expected
that Second street from Burnslde south,
for a dosen or more blocks, will dsvslop
into a flrst-elasa retail thoroughfare.
BUILDING FOR DENTISTS

Suggestion Mad That One Here
' Would Be Profitable,
' "I see that afosea Ounat ef Saa Fran
cisco baa begun work on his asw 10-
story office building la that city to be
devoted exclusively te the uses of den
tists, and will be arranged and fitted up
with that end la view." remarked a well
known Portland dentist. - "Why don't
soms ef our cnpltallsts whe are piercing
the sky with office structures adopt the
Idea of the Baa Francisco millionaire
and provide the Portland dentists with
offices especially adapted to their
needsf
"I have no doubt such a venture wonld
pay. There are vary few office that
are In every way aulted to the require
ment of our profession; especially Is
this true with regard to light and in
terior arrangement. Probably a large
eight er ten-story building In Portland
could not be filled up with dentist
alone at thla time, but It could be ar
ransad to meet the rexitilrementa of phy.
l i l -aa
tolas as wall.
There are not lesa than 100 physlrnane
and dsntlsts tn Portland, and X should
think that at leaat half ef them would
be glad to offloe la a building la which
their comfort and convenience had been
arranged for la the design. Some time
ago I noticed where aa enterprising
Portland builder waa preparing td put
up an office building specially designed
and arranged to meet the requirements
of the member of the legal profession.
Such a building for ths medical and
dental profession would without a
doubt be a paying Investment," - ,
