' SCENE FROM SOUTH PORTLAND HEIGHTS. Those who have never visited SOUTH PORTLAND HEIGHTS have no con ception of the NATURAL BEAUTY of the land and of the MATCHLESS v SCENERY, which can never, be obstructed. ? ' ;jh;'Th-l Portland's Ideal Homesite Addition When South Portland Jleights are built tip it will be an American VENICE afld the rest of the city will be jealous of the favored residents of this PICTURESQUE; and SCENIC section overlooking a broad expanse of city, valley, mountain and river that is inedtnparable,- The future of the beautiful and picturesque part of Portland is now doubly assured for the Oregon Electric is now running on regular, schedule. Also the Fulton line Southern Pa cific Fourth street line and Southern Pacific Oswego line. The United Rail ways Com pany is now building on the Macadam Road, and you can go by boat on the Willamette, river, tie up at Jones' Mill. With this great number of transportation lines running di-. rectly through this part of Portland and all of them through Green arid Sweeney's addi tions, there can be no question for the future, value of this section. It was ont railroad that made the lots in North Portland raise in value from $1,000 to $15,000 each, so why should not these lots go higher than $500 to $750, the present prices on installments? One; of the prettiest river, views to be had in this city is from South Portland Heights. - Peo ple going through in their automobiles or M carriages' on the Slavin road, which runs north and south through this tract, always stop to take in the grand and .panoramic view.'

Ralston Says It Is Be 'l cause of Railroad Im- ( provements. My rtwM why South Portland and Bouth Portlnd heights in particular, has a brlgbt luture, are In brief: lat, Because the railroads are now connecting- South Portland with North Portland. The Southern Pacific cut-off from WUlsburgr Is now building a bridge across the Willamette north ot Oswego. . 2d. ' The United Railways on Front trut lets all Its railroads have termtn al connections with the north end. Tou ran now ae Northern Pacific freight rani Htundlnv on switches on Water street south of Jefferson. This of Itself should make property as yaiuaoie as in th north pari of the clty. - 3d. Then South Portland Is on very high ground, being 20 feet higher than ; the Willamette at high ater. - 4th. South Portland has hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of manufac turing enterprises already In operation end has naa Tor years, me oniy araw bark was transportation facilities. 6th. The grandest scenic view, to be had of all the snow mountains can be nen from 8outh Portland heights. I predict for It a very bright future very enoruy. . - .
