At that time the city consisted of about two streets, Pirst ant Front, and they were iu a sad con dittoti. Mudholcs lay in open view to an pedestrians, and the unwary teamster who was so unlucky as to drive into one of them found it fearful task to extricate his team from its miry depths. Superannuated wooden sidewalks with holes and broken boards man ifestcd themselves all along the two principal streets and were a menace to all who tried to follow them by tnc dim light ot a coal oil lamp on a dark night. Property could have leen scctirw on Third street at from ssoo to $500 tier lot. It is needless to men tiou the price one would have to pay for any of those lots today. 1'ive hundred dollars invested iu 1868 would today make a man wealthy. A young man lauded iu Portland on the 8th day of April of that year. He put up at the old Occi dental hotel. It was the hotel of the city In those days and was con sldered something, wonderful. This lad was the happy owner of S.soo which he had earned, and he was only twenty years old. Men whom he regarded as real estate sharks tried to induce him to purchase a lot or two. They painted hi glow ing colors the future of Portland. They tried to show this boy that the investment of his $500 meant a fortune to him within a few years, but he turned a deaf ear to all their blarney. He had heard of real estate sharks before, ami his money looked good to him, and it seemed to fit nicely iu a niche in his pocket He went up the valley and trial farming. At the cud of his year's experience he was the proud possessor of a cayuse pony lindu saddle; add it was not a good saddle either. If he had in vested his money then today lie would be worth $500,000. "It is too late to be sorry now." That opportunity passed unimproved and when the Portland Height lots were put 011 the market he came iu from east of the mountains and looked them over.

This same man came to Portland when Russell street was leiug cleared. I here were no street cars in Portland then except the horse cars 011 First street. Mr. Lambert of Kast Portland took him iu a buggy and drove him out to Russell street where he was offered any inside lot along that street for 50, corner lot $75. "Too far out-" he said. "Notliing will be built here iu my day, and it is just throwing money into the maw of a laud-shark to purchase here."
