OVER FUTURE
OF PENSACOLA
CHICAGO CAPITALIST SAY s
GROWTH WILL SURPRISE THE
sTAUNcHEsT BELIEVERS IN
THE DEEP WATER CITY.

Just as soon as the new railroads
begin operation and we locate a few
more men with capital Pensacola will
astonish the people who have been the
most optimistic in regard to her fu-
ture," said e. S. Mason, OF Chicago,
to representative OF The Journal at
the San Carlos last night Mr. Mason
owns twelve or fourteen thousand
acres Of land in Escambia and about
twenty thousand acres In Santa Rosa
county and naturally believes In the
future of West Florida, but he says
he, becomes more enthusiastic every
visit he makes to this section
Mr.. Mason came down this time to
go over some OF the surrounding coun-
try and to show Pensacola to two of
his banker friends who wanted to stop
by for day on their way to Cuba and
the Panama canal As q result they
became interested ana will purchase
some city property and may decide to
invest some capital In industrial en-
terprises here. Mr.. Mason is not max
ing any effort to dispose Of his vast
holdings, instead, he Is trying to in
terest many capitalists in investing
in Pensacola to builc UP the city and
turn into the trade channels Of this
city their capital.
Marvellous Growth.
the city and the haroor and out into
the country, along tho new railroads.
The growth, he says, IL even e sur-
prise to him. He finds what waS
wilderness several years aso now
has railroad stations and numerous
farmers, and Pensacota cannot be
recognized as the city here ave years
ago.
The northeTners expect TO find
Florida nothing but a mass of sand"
he says, but il takes only a few min
utes to convince them that the lands
are most productive and respond
readily to the efforts OF the farmers.
Pensacola harbor is another revelation
TO them, and 80 is tho municipal i'm
proyements now being made.
| Right now Pensacola Is making
more improvements than any town in
the north 1 know of with ten times
the taxable property to do it with.
All Of this is well, but we must get
more capital here to establish manu-
featuring plants. The industries viii
come when the new railroads begin to
operate
Many Are Interested.
More people will visit Pensacola
during the next two months than ever
before, says Mr.. Mason. They are not
coming here merely to enjoy the
chmauc conoltlons, Dut with the in
tention Of looking for desirable in
vestments for themselves and their
business associates Right now Pen
sacola is In the minds or the capital
lists Of the north who realize what the
opening Of the Panama canal will
mean to the gulf searorts, especially
