Portland and Sound timber operators, to
raise tho prlco of timber claims. Ilero
toforo tho prlco that operators havo
charged as tho fco for finding tho land
and locating the applicant, has ranged
from f 75 to f ISO. Earlier in the toaton
whon thcro wcro hundreds of moro claims
to bo had than now, it was easy to got a
location almost anywhere, for tho lower
flguro. In July and August tho low
prlco was gonorolly f 100. Operations
woro almost entirely suspended when
tho fires occurred, and ro commoncing
Lrjow, the price has been over f 100, ox-
copt iu Urge numbers. Parties of eight
to ten, have been ablo to hold the price
down to 1100. Tho largor oporatore
claim that all timber that can now be
found nnywhcrfl is wort'a $150 to the
claim. Thcro want tho tmaller opera
tors to join In fixing tho higher prlco.
Thoy data thatthere will be mora profit
oven with tt smaller nqmbor of locations,
than at tho lower pric.
So far as tho proposed action has been
canvaeccd, the plan is to unite tho timber
oporators In an agreement that thoy will
not locate, or furnish information for lo
cations, for less than flCO. Ono of tbo
matters to comlder in whether or not
that will include tho expeneo of going to
and from tho land. Many favor this
much concotslon to locators, but the
trouble about that isthat tho remaining
timber ia vory rcmotofrom thooporalinc
points, Seattle, Tacoma, and Portland.
Fifty dollars will not now cover tho cost
of tho long trips, especially cast of tho
Cascades, to that locators may expect to
still pay tholr own expeneo;.
A meeting of the Portland oporators
has been under coneidoratlon for several
days. The outlook ib that timber ecckors
may expect to pay moro for their claims
in the vory near futuro.
That is what we have to sell arid
we ' can 'lill all orders for any
and all kinds. THE QUALITY
js guaranteed and the
right.
