' When the 18-tory ateel building waa
first mooted New Yorkers were shocked
- at the dangerous Innovation. And
when In a few years a daring New
' Yorker had the temerity to put up a
JO-story office structure on lower
' Broadway, all kinds of disastrous fates
were predicted for it; some said that It
would collapse before it-could be-completed;
others that tenanta on the up
per floors would be blown out of t&e

moved out, - while the "wisest ones"

Yet many of the structures that onoe

the site of the proposed fil-atory build

Theaa early atructurea served . valu

Some passing comment has been

announcement that a building project

' Home building In Portland Is still at
flood tide, with no Indication of an
early setting in of the ebb. Compared
with August 1907, there was an in
crease of 35 per ent In the number
of residence permits Issued last month,
while the Increase In the value of these
Improvements is even greater, amount
ing to nearly 40 per cent . These fig
ures again reveal the great strides
Portland is maklnc riurlnr tha annnnaad-
lydull months of the year.
Pursuing the comparison further. It
Is found that during the first eight
months of this year there were 2,164
residenoa permits- Issued from the
building Inspector's office, ' while for
this same period last year there wero
but 1,569 such permits. Here Is an
increase of over 37 per cent, a condition
which did not obtain in anv nthr Pa
cific coast city. '
One of the best features connected
with this arratifvinar showinr la the
fact that members of the local building
trades unions have been busier than
those in any other coast city. And as.
a consequence tne numoer or unem
ployed men seen on the streets of this
city is much less than In other coast
cities.

PLAN COMFORT
OF EfJPlOyES
The lumber market has shown a great
Improvement during the past 10 days
and a number of mills are unable to
supply the demand for uppers for which
the demand Is especially strong every
where. Prices are gradually stiffening
but it will be some time before they
get back to the prices of a year ago -
which even lumbermen, admit were too
high to last. : ,- . .
While local business is excellent rail
shipments, also show a healthy revival.
Salt Lake and Montana territories are
buying quite liberally and from the east
come orders of considerable magnitude,
Dealers returning from Inspection trips
in the east report -conditions much -on
the mend back there and confidence re
turning with a more general spirit of
optimism. .
The foreign demand for lumber Is
not as strong as it was a few weeks
ago, but some business was ciosea in
that line recently. tieavy purcnases
were made bv buvera in the orient and
Australia when prices were at bedrock
and for that reason purchases from
those sections will perhaps be rather
light for a while.
California la s Id to he In better shape
for lumber than It has been for a long
time. Uppers meet with as strong de
mand In California as anywhere else
