Many of the Chinese expelled across Oregon made their way to Portland, where they settled in the city's Chinatown. In Portland the Chinese were tolerated in part because of its close commercial shipping ties to China. In 1886 an anti-Chinese convention was held for the entire Pacific coast in Portland. Governor Sylvester Pennoyer penned a letter on March 15 of that year, advocating that "legal" means such as officially sanctioned boycotts should be used to remove Chinese people from the state.
