DN RAILWAY IAIN 10 BEGIN ON MONDAY Small Volume of Heavy Con struction Has Been Con- tracted, for Recently, PLAN WOOL WAREHOUSE XiaorsUiurst Company Hot at Elabor ate Seoeptlon on Completion of Several STew Dwellings. Local building operations last week i confined entirely to residence con- truction. The largest permit issued for buildings of that kind being under $5000. Whether the Liberty loans are ab sorbing the available supply of money. or whether high priced labor and high priced building materials is the cause of a falling off in construction Tin Portland is of little consequence since the fact remains that a negligible Vol ume of heavy construction has been contracted for during the past 60 days. New dwelling houses of frame con struction are springing up in many parts of the city, especially In the high priced east side residence sec tions. One of the "things of interest to builders and realtors during the past week was the elaborate reception given by the Laurel hurst company at the site of five handsome new resi dences Just completed by that com pany at East Davis and Laurelhurst a Vend e. i The Laurelhurst company kept open House for several afternoons and eve tiinga showing these beautiful homes and they were visited by a large num ter of people. N. O. Eklund has broken ground a 1189 East Burnside street for a 15000 dwelling house. The structure Is to be a two story frame" building and the drawing shows an unusually handsome effect. A permit for a two story residence was Issued last week to H. E. Do herty. The new house Is t& be erected at 363 Aspen street at a cost of $3300 W. II. I,acer has let a contract for' a one story cottage to be erected at 1878 Cranhuton street. The building will contain six rooms and Its estimated cost ' is $1800. Architect Lewis I. Thompson, rep resenting trie, Portland Woolen Mill at St. Johns, prepared the plans and 1 superintending the construction of two story warehouse, being erected by that company neitr its mills. The building will cost about $5000, and will be ready for occupancy about January 18. Cringle Will GeT A Large Sawmill r.eml. Or.. Nov. 1 7.

"I ' ' ' Representative Men Chosen by G.' L. Rausch, the Gen eral Chairman, ONE IMPORTANT.DEAL IN LOCAL REALTY IS ABOUT TO BE CLOSED Great Majority of Properties Transferred in Past Week Are of Low Valuation, One Important realty deal In' local property was about ready to close Sat urday, though the brokers interested In the transaction were not ready, In fact refused to give any particulars, as the title had not been formally reported on. Otherwise, so far as announce ments from agencies are concerned, there was not even a normal movement in real estate, except, of course, for the usual fair-sized volume of small properties. In fact, it is only fair to say that last week the small holding was much In evidence In the record of sales. A, great majority of the prop erties traded in recently have had an actual valuation of less than $1000 each., One of the Influences that Just now is having a deterrent effect on the real estate business is the stiffness of In terest rates, which Is beginning to show itself. Discussing this subject recently, one of the older established realty operators said that he could not understand why there should be any good reason for raising the rate or interest on loans secured by fortiana real estate. - Six per cent for loans aoove $3000, secured by the better class of resi dence properties, has been the ruling rate In Portland for some years, but quite recently brokers have been talk ing about 7 per cent on this class or loans. Some loans have been made on central property as low as S and 6 per cent, but recent Inquiries for loans of this kind reveal a disposition by lenders to demand 6 per cent for their money. - to build two or three years ago was heard in the local courts last week when the architectural firm of Bridge & Webber secured a Judgment against Multnomah county for $4000, Which they claim Is due them for drawing; the plans and specifications of the projected structure. This is another one of the numerous cases where a Judgment was secure! on what the plaintiff declared wu a verbal contract as no written contract was ever entered Into between :the architecture and the county oomriiis slcners looking to the building of the hospital.

There was some evidence last week that the realty board as all organiza tion may take a Tiand In budget making by the county and city. If there Is any class of tax payers, as expressed by one of -the leading realty brokers, that Is interested to a vital degree In the discussion of taxation It Is the owner of city real estate. Portland pays practically all of the taxes levied and collected " by Mult nomah county, hence owners of Port land real estate have a real reason for Insisting that the county hold the tax levy to as low a figure as is consistent with proper administration of county airairs. The. same thing-holds good In city lkacvliuii inaueiD H.HU ine realty men Deneve that there are many opportunl ties at the city hall for, cutting the cost ui municipal government. - While no definite action has been taken by the realty board, as yet It Is probable that at an early ' meeting, of the board the matter will be discussed and that 'discussion will' in all prob ability lead to the appointment of a committee of realty operators to take up budget affairs of both the county commissioners and the city council.

Mr. Kofeldt came to Portland sev eral years ago a cashier for the Pathe company, and has risen- in the ranks of the film game to the position of manager. From his work in Portland he has gained tike reputation of being one of the most progressive film ex ploiters in the territory. The farewell party Saturday was about as Bohemian as people can get in Portland, and the members sang rag time and jazzed around as only film folk can. Present were W. W. Kofeldt. Abraham Nelson, B.

Tunnel at head of box canyon on Eagle creek trail The tunnel at the head of the box canyon on Eagle Creek is now com pleted, according to advice from the forest service. This tunnel Is about 30 feet In length and is bored through solid rock and extends under an un named waterfall which is about' 150 feet high. This waterfall will prob ably be named after the Eagle Creek trail. The Eagle Creek trail was begun In 1916, starting from the camp grounds on the Columbia river highway anJ to extend to Wahtum lake, a distance of 12 miles. Four miles of the trail were completed that . year, which put it up as far as the Eagle Creek bridge. As soon as it was practicable the work was resumed this year, and six miles more were completed. A small crew is still working on the trail, but bad weather will compel leaving the work before it is com pleted. After ' reaching the other end of the tunnel last week, only two miles, were left to finish the trail to Wahtum lake This part will be done as early as possible, in the. spring by the government workers. The fact that much of this trail has Tequirtd heavy rock work in its-construction explains the -rather slow progress of. the work. Eagle Creek .canyon' is very a't- Mlneola. I I, Not. 17. (I. K B.)'

People who have made the trip as far as Wahtum lake say , the scenery becomes more attractive as the distance from the highway Increases. Many are wonder stricken' at the beautiful and unique tunnel back of the falls. Though the fact that . the trail' up to the falls was hewn through the solid rock, is remarkable, it Is even more so that the tunnel should be made directly through it and around the pouring water.

Thia would be in addition to the annual half mill levy for the library work. Miss Isom says that the half milt is no longer nufflclent to care for the needs of the library, owing to an in crease in salary schedule and cost of miles, and the very attractive loop j books.

These tracts, which are the estates of deceased or aged In dians, vary in size from 40 to 169 acres," and range In price from $5 to $16 per acre. Many of these lanas are vaiuaDie nay producing tracts, and stockmen frequently obtain very good ranches by taking advantage of such auctions at a very low figure. The Klamath Indian reservation is one of the most famous stock raising section of the West. The Klamath In dians are far more civilized and pro gressive than most of the Indian tribes, and residence among them has not the objectionable features that exist in some sections.
