Building has been going steadily onj all of the summer and the approach of j winter has not dampened the ardor of either contractors or property owners. The only thing in the way 01" extensive building throughout the I winter is the scarcity of carpenters, j "There are plenty of buildings un jder contemplation and I have several j myself to build," said one contractor. wmi u: svai wiij Ul Lili 1ft' U 11.' I M ai present makes it difficult to estimate how much urill be done." The con tractor who made -this statement was j engaged In work on a large building and only had two men at work. Not a Boom. It is not a building boom, either. It Is a case of property owners either putting up substantial buildings for themselves or for renL Both business and resident property Is being im proved. And there Is no risk In In vesting either. Long before a build ing Is completed and often before the plans are made application Is made to ' rent It In fact, it Is said that prop erty owners are besieged to put up more buildings of all kinds. They Show For Themlves. One may walk down most any street and see Improvements going on. New buildings are being com pleted, or under construction, or the ground is just being broken at many points. In a ten minutes' interview with two architects and two contract ors, it was learned that the number of improvements going on ran way up into the hundreds, according to a conservative estimate, and there are many that could not be taken into acount in so short a time The archi tects' services are usually only re quired in important structures and they take no account of the smaller buildings. Some of the Buildings. Besides the new Catholic hospital and the Pendleton -Academy building and the new Christian church build ing, each of which is under construc tion and will cost a large sum of money, there are numerous business blocks and residences of a substantial nature that will cost large sums also. Then there are many small cottages and other Improvements that do not cost very much in individual cases, but that will sum up a large total. It is estimated that the early spring will find a large number of improve ments added to Pendleton and the coming year will witness the largest building activity in the history of the place within tie same period for a number of years. Architect T. F. Howard reports the following: William Boesch's new City Brewery, to be built of brick and stone, is now having the ground broken at the cor ner of Court and Thompson streets. It is to contain two stories and a base ment and to be in operation in four months. The estimated cost is $10,000. C. J. Matlock's residence at the corner of Water and Thompson streets is under construction. It Is a two-story frame building with base ment, contains seven rooms and is to cost $2600. T. C. Taylor's new brick warehouse upon which work has just commenc ed on Garden street, is to be 50x100 fe and is to cost sssut $5000. Mrs. N. Berkeley's new one-story brick 26x50 feet, on Alta street is nearly complete at a cost of about $2600. It is to be used as a business block. Joe 'ETl's lodging house on Garden accost of $3500 is just about complet - eu. Max Moorehead's cottage was com pleted early in the fall at a cost of about $2200. j Major Lee Moorehoiise's new two ' story residence was completed a few t weeks ago at a cost of $2700. 1 1 np L'niiiLiiia liiuiuu icauj ivnan The Umatilla Indian Presbyterian church was recently completed on the 1 .1 . . . r 1 f 1 reservation at a cost of $1450. W. F. .Matlock contemplate a new building in the spring. It is to be u of Court' two-story brick at the corner and Garden streets, is be 50x.5 feet and will cost in the neighborhood of S10.000. The plans are completed and the building is to be constructed early in the spring. Mrs. M. N. Sawtell has albo had plans drawn for a two-story residence to be constructed on the north side of the river early In the spring. This building is to cost $2800. Reported by Architect C. E.
