East Side' Dwellings.
One of the-. Owners directly con
cerned In halng lands in the Colum
bia Slough district kept attractive to
prospective buyers for factory sites. In
discussing; the matter' yesterday, said
there was danjrer of the old-time non
proHTessive spirit interfering with the
present opportunity. He explained by
saying that the announcement that iio
Swift plant is about to be erected on
property north of Columbia Boulevard
Is no excuse for holders of lands soutt;
and adjoining that property beinir
oarried away with the Idea that un
reasonably advanced prices may bo
secured for those lots. . In the neigh
borhood of 11000 an acre, he said. Is
not only a fair valuation for the lands,
but the price is nearly double' tiiat of
a year .ago, and holders ought to bo
more than satisfied to make' a turn
on such a basis. By raising valuations
much beyond the figure named, he
contended, prospective buyers would be
scared away and the district remain
for years unimproved, whereas I
owners showed any true' progro'ssive
ness they would endeavor not to repel
'prospective builders of factories along
the slough, by popping: up pricas on
available sites.
"This does not mean," said ho, "that
I think present asking prices are ex
cessive in that district; what I intend
to nay is thHt I know of some tracts
over there for which a good stift iis

a sale is clogged that would mean the
early improvement of tho tract, and
be an Immense - benefit to the whole
section. It happens that some of the
owners' of the tract in question have
Wther holdings in tho vldtilty whl;h
would become more valuable If the
deal Is -closed up. The offer for the
tract. If accepted, would clear a hand

looks to me to be shortsightedness not
to allow the majority owners to take.
this prolit. now that they have tie
opportunity to do so. Two men Jre
holding out. and the offer includes
their holdings and will not be closed
without they Join."
Factory Sites Are Available.
Factory sites are unlike other classes
of realty, in most instances, for as a
rule lands that are Ideal for factory
use are not attractive for residences.
While It Is unquestionably true that a
greut demand Is now on for residence
sites in Portland, there Is no great dif
ficulty ill obtaining lands availahle for
manufacturing purposes along the river,
and sloughs.
The patt week has been a re'mr.rk-'
able one in several particulars. Tians
,fers on recorded figures 'show a total
of about ?:00.to0 and In point of num
bers exceed those of recent week, in
the matter of building permits. 41S
were Issued carrying total valuatlors
of $S33.$t0. As compared with Febru
ary of li'07. a singular result Is nonee
4)Me in that last year there were only
-7S permits Issued, but the total whs
J.SO.OuO in excess of this year. Thii is
aceounted for in the fact that per
mits were issued last February fur
completion of several "skyscrapers, '
whereas the month Just closed had but
one item exceeding 100.u0 that of
the annex of the Oregon Hotel. . .
Predicts Record Year.
Building Inspector Spencer said yes
terday with reference to building oper
ations that the tirst two months of

what wilt be a record year in Port
land. This prediction is given strength
by the reports of architects, nearly all
of whom are busily at work on plans
for new structures,' the majority be-ins
foe- residences. -Elsewhere in this
issue is a detailed statement showing
the class tof buildings being erected
It will be noticed that over a half
million dollars 'n valuation Is being
expended in Portland for structures to
cost over $.",000 each, included in per-,
mlts Issued since the first of the year.
While this large amount of money is
being put into business structures and,
dwellings of an expensive character. It
will be noticed that a like amount Is

The East Side keeps up Its lead in
LAND OWNERS MAY
HOLD OH TOO LONG
the building of dwellings, and ewn
those, who are In touch' with construc
tion business express astonishment at
the rapidity with which the city is
reaching out In all directions on the
peninsula. Over 400 buildings' in a
short month, at this season of the year,
and-when the '"times' are said to be
adverse to' making improvements. Is a
record any city might well be proud
of. If' the progressive spirit of the
people could be infused a bit into the
people's representatives in the Coun
cil, said an East Side dealer yester
day, -so that the making of good streets
would keep pace with the spread of
the city, much encouragement for fur
ther efforts - would be givelt. Aloivij
that line the work of the different im
provement clubs is being felt and a
great deal of building in certain dis
tricts Is directly, attributable to Influ
ences these organizations exert in ad
vertising their localities.
Xew Buildings Started.
During the week contracts were let
for the new building of the Y. W. C. A.,
which Is to cost about $75,000. ' The ad
joining structure for the Y. IT. C. A.,
to cost nearly double, will start dur
ing the month and the two are to be
put up as rapidly as funds become
available. In the northwest districL of
the city several high-class dwellings
are to be. started during the mcr.th,
that of W. J. Van Schuyver, as an ex
ample, plans lor w'riich are now being
made by Bennes, Hendricks & Tobey.
Bids will be called for about the middle
of the month and the architects say
they expect to hav the buPding up
in about ai.- months thereafter. It. is
to occupy the site at Twenty-fifth and,
Marshall streets and will cost approxi
mately $15,000.
Rapid Advance in Value.
The - most Important out-of-town . sale
the past week was that of a block of
ground in Mitwaukie on which the old
Standard flour mills stood for so many
years, by ; the Hawley Pulp & Paper
Company, of Oregon City. This block
was sold two 'years ago for $400 and now
brings $7000. It is just north of the prop
erty of the Dennis & Davis shingle mill.
It is announced to be the purpose of the
company to bring logs to Milwaukie. cut
them at the sawmill to be erected on the
site purchased and then send the blocks
to" Oregon City by electric car. A spur
from the electric railway will be built
to the site purchased. Between 25 and
35 men will be employed in the new mill.
A number of new dwellings are being
built there and others are projected.

Records of the Building' Inspector
show some interesting facts with ref
erence to operations In the building
line since the first of the year. The
largest amounts shown in segregating
the two months' figures are for- the
construction of dwellings to cost be
tween $101)0 and $5000: That, of
course, means that the constant de
mand for dwellings of moderate cost is
being met both by homebuilders for
personal use and by investors for rent
ing. The total valuation represented
in the two months' permits was di
vided Into $t-3.54'. for January, and
$So3.S00 for February, showing over
$200,000 increase for the latter month.

COMPLAIN OF WATER SUPPLY
East Side Sections Active in Asking
Council for Relief.
The most important question on tho
East Side is the water supply. From
practically every section comes a de
mand for more watermains and com
plaint of water-shortage. At Sellwood.
where a 10-inch main was laid several
years ago, there is already a water
shortage. This Is on account of the
growth of the district and consequent
increase of the population. From Kenil
worth there comes the same complaint.
Attention was called to these condi
tions at the last meeting of the United
East Side Push Clubs, with the result
that a special committee was appointed
to look into the matter of a second
pipe line to Bull Run as the only solu
tion to the water question. It is the
opinion of those who have looked into
the matter that there will be a short
age in Portland before this second pipe
line can be built, even if work were to
start on its construction next year.
A MARKER.
For a genuine bona fide investment you
cannot beat that quarter block on Front
street, which T offer at a special figure
of $39,000 or $10,000' oelow market value.

VALUES WELL MAINTAINED
Class of Building Operations Prove
Growth of !ity to Be of Most
Desirable Character and
Carried Briskly Forward.
Activity in East Side real estate, both
in buildings and in sites for home-build-Ing-
purposes, was maintained during
the week. The total sales in the resi
dence" districts show a considerable" per
centage of increase over former weeks.
Examination of the prices paid will show
that prices are maintained and the num
ber of sales tell the story of constant in
quiry. There" are some acreage gales be
ing made, although the market in this
direction has not been so brisk as during
former weeks. The favored district for
acreage sales is east of Mount Tabor and
Montavilla, out to the Twelve-Mile House,
on both sides the Base Line road. It
is expected at . the close of another
year will see that whole zone pretty well
cleared of brush and stumps and prepared
for cultivation. From 1 to 20-acre tracts
for suburban homes are being secured.
The County Court is paving the Section.
Base Line and Powell Valley roads with
crushed rock, making them even better
than many of the streets of Portland- and
making the tributary territory highly de
sirable for suburban homes, where an
acre or two may be had for flowers and
vegetables.
rn Central East Portland, at an auction
sale Tuesday, a bid of $12,500 was made
on a quarter block on Belmont and East
Third streets. It was not closed up, -but
will be soon. To this must be added
cost of the fill that has been contracted
for on these two lots, which will be $1700.
According to these figures the quarter
ls-orth at least $16,000. As to the fills.
It is now settled, apparently, that the
Pacific Bridge Company will get a per
mit to build a trestle for a temporary
track for its dumpcars on East Salmon
and -East Third to East. Oak. street in
order to fill the low lands and also the
streets east of Union avenue, for which
it has contracts.

Looks for Steady Growth.
O. V?. Taylor, who Is interested in Rose
City Park, "takes a very optimistic view
of the situation, and remarked yester
day: "I do not look for a great boom,
but generally, affairs are getting Into nor
mal condition. There is an immense
amount on residence property being sold
In Portland, especially on the East Side,
although the sales are not largo but
show that Portland is being filled up
with a most desirable class home build
ers." Mr. Taylor said that Rose City Park is
getting its share of customers. The own
ers of the tract are clearing a 7-acre
piece to be used the coming Summer by
residents as a resort. It will be provided
with swings, rustic seats and places of
rest. The Rose City Improvement League
is doing good work for that neighborhood
and a large number of homes, .aggregat
ing $100,000, are to be erected in the early
Spring as the result of its efforts. Also
steps have been taken to open up two
through streets to that section of. the city
and to the Country Club's ground.
In the Woodstock district there Is a
steady and substantial grrowth. J. W.
Gilstrap, a prominent resident and
property owner, says:
"We have one of the most attractive
residence districts in Portland on this
elevated plateau overlooking -. the
Willamette River. "There has been a
steady growth in thte district. So much
of the residence property nas changed
hands that it is not an easy matter
now to get hold ot either acreage or
lots, although there is constant in
quiry for both. I bought on the brow
of the hill a couple of acres at $750
an acre, and could get $2500 for the
two if I wanted to sell. For my home
I was offered $5000 lf I would give
possession; but of course it Is not . in
the market at all, and' I only mention
this incident to show the trend of
affairs, out here. There Is such a
growth here tnat I am considering the
advisability of - erecting a public ball
that would be modern, safe and up-to-date.
I believe that we need such a
hall out here to accommodate the call
for a public meeting- place ' for f unc-
- v ; I f- - 44 "-. -; -:
There is . a decided improvement
movement at Mount Tabor. At Tabor
Heights, at the end of the electric rail
way, elgrht new dwellings are projected
which will cost between $2500 and
$3500 each. Work will start on these
houses in the early Spring. Iot have
been ' sohj in atl directions- at Tabor
Heights the pat few weeks t a men
who intend to erect homes. The Base
Line rrad is to be opened full width to
Tabor Heights and will be graded. Thia

ment.. At present this road Is nearly
impassible. &y making it wider and
cutting down the steep parts an easy
grade will be secured to the top of the
hitl. An effort Is being made -, to . get
Belmont street opened and improved
to Tabor Heights, although some op
position is being encountered from a
few residents who have homes - near
the street, but many seem to think this
ill-advised, a the street is needed to

park on the top of Mount Tabor is be
ing considered. A large number' of

St. George Hotel Quarter Interest Is
Sold by E. TT. Daly to Dr.
Baar.
Negotiations were concluded yesterday
for the transfer of a quarter interest in
the St. George hotel property, on the
southwest corner of First and Columbia
streets. E. J. Daly sold his interest to
Dr. Gustay Baar, who already owned
a one-half interest in the property, the
remaining quarter belonging to America
and Laura Moore.
There is a three-story brick hotel build
ing, 50x100, on the site and two frame
dwellings on the inside lot. About a year
ago the property was purchased by "Mr.
Daly and his associates for $52,500. from
Joseph Simon and Frederick W. Mslkey.
Based upon the price paid for the quar
ter interest, the present iholding price is
$S5.000, or an advance of $23,000.
This sale, together with others made
recently or practically closed, indicates
the strength of the market and restored
normal conditions, such as prevailed prior
to the financial stress In the East.
That the East does not offer induce
ments for safe remunerative Investments
equal to those of the Coast, was made ap
parent yesterday on the receipt of a letter
from a resident of New York to his cor
respondent In Pdrtland, informing him
that a fund of between $200,000 and $300,000
was in hand for Investment in the West,
and Inquiring as to what Is offered in the
way of income-producing property or
mortgage loan. The letter also said that
Portland had been recommended as the
best point on the Coast in which to Invest
these trust funds.
DECIDE TO BUILD NEW TEMPLE
East Side Oddrellows to Erect Ade
quate Lodge Quarters.
Orient Lodge, No. 17, I. O. O. F.,
which meets at present in the hall on
the corner of East Pine street and
Grand avenue, will erect a two-st iry
reinforced concrete building on the
southeast corner of East Sixth and Al
der streets, as soon as the plans can
be prepared. At the meeting held
Wednesday night, the members of the
lodge discussed the building project
fully and finally decided that the time
was opportune to proceed with the
erection of an Oddfellows' temple on
the East Side. It was estimated that
a two-story reinforced concrete struc
ture. 100x50. the size of the lot owned
by the lodge, will cost, with the furni
ture, $25,000. While at present the
building will be two stories: it was
the expression of opinion that in the
course of time three or more stories
would be required, and-.-hence it was
decided that the walls for the founda
tion and of the first two stories should
be built with the prospect of finally
carrying three or more stories. At
present. East Sixth street, on which the
building will be located, is not gener
ally used, but it will become Important
as soon as the fill northward to East
Stark street is completed. Orient
Lodge has had this building project
under consideration for some months,
and had a special committee appointed
to make preliminary investigations and
report. The trustees and two members
were made the building committee,
with Instructions to secure plans and
details. It will likely be a month be
fore these can be completed and ac
cepted by the lodge; afterward bids
win De cauea ior. vneni juoage rtw
300 members, and is abundantly abla
to finance the building. It may b
necessary to borrow $o000. but if that
amount is needed above thy lodge re
sources, the money will bo obtained
from members. It Is figured that the
new temple cah.be completed and dedi
cated in the Kail.
