(Baet Side Department.) '
In . the value . of building permlta
July prove a good aeoond to April, the
banner month of . the year,' when ' the
permlta Issued by the building Inspector
totaled more than $1,000,000, Up to the
hour of .closing yeaterday the building
inspector had taaued during the month
building permlta to the value of $710.
000, while plana of bulldlnga were in the
handa -of the Inspector, valued at
$35,000, permlta for which ' will b Is
sued Monday,- rendering It practically
certain that the total for the mrsnth wilt
go wall above $850,000.
. For (he first time since January l'of
the present year the value of east aide
permlta fall below that .of thoae la-
aued for the west side, weet side per
mits totaling $400,000, eaat aide $150,
000. . This reversal of the. record, how
ever, waa caused byjha Issuing -of per
mits, for several large west side busi
ness houses, botably the Swetland build
ing, at Fifth and Washington streets, to
cost $02,000; . the four-story Jorgensen
business house ' at Third and Main
streets, valued at $15,000; repaira en the
Chamber of Commerce, to oost $40,000;
residence of j.rs. Sol Hlrach, Waahlng
ton and : St. Clair atreeta, $40,000, and
Sol ' Roaenfeld'a Park avenue dwelling,
$is.ooo. . "
Among the more Important eaat side
Improvements scheduled during the
month are the following:. Councilman
Maatera' restUenoa on East Madison
street, to cost $8,000; eight flats, build
ing on. East Taylor atreet, $30,000; the
Bummers dwelling at Eaat Fifteenth and
Haiaey streets, $5,000; Bethany -Baptist
church, Tacoma avenue and East
Eleventh atreet. $4,000; the Jennings
residence, Washington and East Tenth
streets, $(,000; the handsome home of
Toll Thompson, East Thirty-third and
BelmonL to cost $8,000, and three tele
phone ezchangea to cost $46,000.
- Kaay Swellings Be lag Bull.
In the value of dwelling alone the
eaat aide haa a alight advantage over the
weat aide, each dlatrlot applying for
permit for about $150,000.
The most aatiafactory feature con
nected with the report of the July per
mlta 1 the eubatantlal character of the
Improvement going up in all parte of
tha-clty. -Especially Is this noticeable
on the eaat aide. Residence lota in that
portion of the city have become too
valuable to build on them cheap, flimsy
houaea. Few permlta were laaued for
structures costing less than $1,000,
fwhile $1,600 to $8,600 waa the prevail
ing coat given. A number of permit
were laaued for eaat aide dwelling ea-
M00 ta tia.OOOl
The change Inaugurated by the building
inspector's department requiring the
value of the improvement to be correct-
E
ly given in the application- tor-the-er--Uhe
mlt la noticeably brought out In the
daily report of permlta issued. A $10,-
000 residence la no longer described aa
$8,000 cottage, In order to save the
few dollars difference In the cost of
the permit.
The fine weather that haa prevailed
throughout the month haa atimulated
building prolecta in ell parts of the
eaat aide. Some difficulty haa been ex
perienced because of the scarcity of
labor and 'material. - It baa been next
to impossible to eupply the demand for
cement and gravel. Along the Mount
Boott oar line a serious shortage tn the
lumber market la reported. . .COntrac-
tore heaitate to. aubmlt blda on work
where a penalty ia attached to failure
to complete a job on time. -
A algnulcant change is noted in the
character of bulldlnga under eonstruo-
oentral east aide; the two-atoryQuaeil

modern city flat Numbere of theee
atructurea are going ap in the Irving ton,
Uolladay and Sunnyslde districts. In
vestors elalm that a better return on

building - flats than by covering the
aame ground with cottage.
A - force ef men from the city en

llahing the gradea of a number of

adviaement and a decision Is dally ex
pected that will either confirm the O. R.
A N. in possession of the rout through
Grand Ronde canyon and up the Wal
Iowa river to Joseph, or will declare
that Mr. Cook - waa wrongfully dla
poeaeaaed of, the aame by force by the
conatructlon. foroea of the u. n. a M.
Co. In the latter event it la believed
the Wallowa Railroad company and
Cook will bring a ault agalnat the Har-
rlman line for a large amount of dam-
area.
About a year ago the Wallowa Valley
Railroad oompany was organised by
Cook, who, backed by Portland capital.
made a survey and secured bonds for
deeda for rights ef way for a railroad
from Joaeph down the Wallowa river
and through Grand Ronde canyon to
connection with the O. R. A N. company
Yeara-provloualy the latter oompany
had aurveyed a similar route, but had
neglected conatruction for so long that
the people- believed it had - abandoned
JroJeot and whatever rlghta it poa-
aessed had elapaed.-
Aa soon as the Cook project took deft
nlte form the O. R. A -S. company's
agent again. went into the field, aecured
deeda for the Cook rlghta of way from
the farmers by giving the latter indem
nlfylng bonds against the bonds they
had- given to Cook. The farmers, believ
ing again that the O. R. A N. company
menat to build, and being protected by
Indemnifying bonda, yielded to the Har-
rlman road .and a conatructlon force
went over the ground and fenced the
right -of way,- deaplta- atrenuoua objec
tlona by the Cook company.
Then began, in the local eourta, a se
ries of legal engagementa that are now
drawing to a conclusion, but may not
put a final quietus upon the contest. If

railroad company waa illegally ouated

Practically the entire contention of
the lumber mill men has been conceded
by the rallroada In the matter of cubical
mlnlmume and ratea lor eastern snip
ment of lumber. The railroads have
granted a continuance of the old mini
mum aublect to oertaln limitations.

which has been active In effecting a
aettlement of the controversy, la de
livering Oregon lumber at Omaha at prac
tically S1S0 per car. The lumber mllla are
required to load the car ruu ana me
weight at ear capacity la accepted at
the minimum weight, regardless of the
cubical, spaes.
The contention or the rauroaoa was
that thsy had- In yeara past been haul
ing green heavy lumber at a given rate
which, when applied to kiln dried stuff
and inferior finishing materials, was not
yielding a normal revenue to the com
pany In proportion to the carrying ca
pacity of the ear. In ahort, the rolling
atock could not be made to earn a fair
profit hauling feathers by the pound in
comparlaon with hauling pig Iron at the
aame rate per pound.
The roada propoaed to compel the lum
ber mill men to crowd all kinds of lum
ber Into a ear to make It weigh as much
aa a load of the old-time green lumber.
and on failure to do ao the lumber ship

There waa plainly good - argument on
