During the depression the Pacific
slope IS looking 10 the tourist 70 e!e-
vate the tone Of business Just as
Maine looks to the tourist TO help
business conditions. Thousands upon
thousands are visiting out there now
and they help materially TO hold busi-
ness from sinking to q lower level Of
prosperity than it has already
reached. Every section visited, Mr..
Gannett says. appears to have a com
paint Of some kind that grows out o.
business dep-es2ion: in general the
market conditions for products are
the first object Of complaint
In sharp contrast to this depression
extending across the country Mr..
Gannett finds unusual prospects for
Increased business activity upon ar
irving home in his own city and is
greatly pleased with the announce
ment that a new and important shoe
industry is about to begin operations

erected and that within the near flu
ture a much needed and long desired
potato house is to be provided. Mr..
Gannett says he is glad that Augusta
is one Of the first to see the light Of
prosperous days cleaning ahead and
congratulates the city upon the pros
poets. He says in this connection
that nowhere in the West did he see
the spirit Of confidence which he
found upon arriving in Boston and he
thinks the upcoming Of business will
reach from the East westward just as
the business depression extended from
the West eastward.
At San Diego Fair.
"One should visit the San Diego fair
before going to the great fair at San
Francisco" declares Mr.. Gannett He
describes the San Diego fair as a very
beautiful exhibition of landscape gar
dening and California products which
is well worth visit and quite Won
derful to behold, but says that it
would seem small and less interesting
after a visit to the greater world ex-
position in the city to the north. The
San Diego fair covers 100 acres in the
middle Of a new city park of 1900
