The fault of whatever panic thete was in Oregon was due to a
lew rortland bankers, and particularly one head of a leading bank who
was the first to Unvtue scared and he grew so frightened that ho lost
his wit entirely. He was the first to run to tiovernor Chamlvrl&in
mid go on his knee, imploring state aid. The result was Uui for the
Ute, for the state's reputation, but worst ot all for rortland, which is
tho hardest hit of any northwest city. Compare how Seattle wathered
the storiu in splendid head-up fashion, to the weathcrbeairn ci aft on
the Willamette thatwi few months ago proudly claimed to" he tho finan
cial iuistiw of the northwest.
