Oirector of Bank of Seward Writes ot |
New Institution in Post
intelligencer.
Maurice D. Leehey, director of the
Bank of Seward, went out of his way
to show that he and the other officers
of the Bank of Seward more than vvel- <
come the coming of the Harriman
National Bank to this city. The fol-:
lowing letter appeared in the Post j
Intelligencer:
SEATTLE, June 8th. 1915.
Mr. Edwin Selvin,
Financial Editor,
Daily Post-Intelligencer,
Dear Sir>
As one of the directors of the Dank
of Seward, the only director who has
served as such ever since incorpora
tion, I want to compliment you on the
splendid article in the P-i of June t,
on the financial significance of es
tablishing the Harriman National
Bank of Alaska.
The Bank of Seward expects compe-1
tition. and we were delighted indeed
that Seward should attract such a
bank. We were selfishly delighted
perhaps, for we feel that it is a com
pliment to the Terminal city, and such
institution will strengthen local con
fidence in the local banks and keep
money t>n deposit in Alaska that
would otherwise go to banks in the
states. We were afraid that the
selection of Seward as a terminal
would attract three or four small
banks on the mushroom order which
would only weaken local confidence,
for we realize that a strong bank in
any town gives confidence in all local
banks, while one weak bank corres
pondingly caste suspicion on the
others, or at least to some extent des
troys local confidence. My residence
in Seattle enabled me to meet the of
ficials of the Harriman Bank at Se
ward on their way north, which I did
at the direction of our President, Mr.
Charles E. Brown, of Seward, and ex
tended to our new competitors the
greetings of the Bank of Seward anti
a hearty welcome. Again my compli
ments on your splendid article.
Yours very truly,
MAURICE D. LEEHEY.

Here’s a welcome to Cordova
Ami the Rooters they may bring,
To help celebrate the Fourth,
And make the Welkin ring.

And help to fill them up.
We’ll give them everything they want
But we’ll fight them for that cup.
