located about eight miles from Long

purchasers also come into possession Of
every house in the settlement of about
200 people.
In order to perfect the deal Young &c

In speaking of realty conditions in

Lewis e. Bradt, manager of the land
department of the Abbot Kinney COM
pany and one of the best posted real

expressed himself during the week as
follows: Conditions are steadily i'm
proving and the market is not as bad
as is generally believed. There are, to
my knowledge, number of important
transactions in the local field and ne
gotiations are pending in at least one
deal in business property that, If put
through, will give decided tone to the
market. The demand for residence To-
cations is fairly good and there is
steady sale in outlying property"
Mr.. Bradt, like most other we'll known
operators in the bay district, is giving
considerable attention to renting and
devotes a special department in his Of

SANTA MONICA

Visitors are flocking to the beach re-
sorts by every means of travel, and
summer accommodations are at prem
ium. There continues to be an un-
mistakably strong undertone to the real
! estate market. In the outlying districts
property values are steadfastly going
up and there Is a good demand for
acreage and low priced residence lots.
Reports of some large projects are also
in the air, and altogether the outlook
seems to be of decidedly encouraging
character. There is some complaint
that the progress toward general mar
ket is slow, but experienced observers
see in this the best reason for relying
on the absolutely healthy foundation
upon which the market rests.
While the week was not productive OF
any specially important transactions,
there was nevertheless much doing of
an important nature, not the least in>
teresting of which was the announce
ment by the educational board that
August % had been set as the date
for receiving bids for the construction
of two brick school house buildings.
One of the structures Is to be erected
on Sixth street, near Oregon avenue,
and the other will be at washington
place, near Montana avenue. The build
ing of these structures will undoubted-
ly show a good and immediate effect
on property values in the districts
where they will be located. Bids for
the construction of a frame school
house at Westgate, in the recently an
nexed territory, are now being received.
The contracts for the building of these
structures stipulate that they must be
completed by December 1, 1906.

The trend in home buying Is certainly
not sighting the east part of town.
Lots in the Alamitos park tract, Mira
mar and Belmont heights are selling
rapidly. The purchases, in the majority
of cases, are made for homes. The
homes that are being put up there are
more substantial than those erected
during the last few years. The Vista
del Mar tract, to the northward, is also
booming. Two weeks ago forty thou
sand dollars worth of property in the
Long Beach Park tract changed hands.
The purchase of the townsite of
Hynes, which was made last week by
Young & Parmeley, was one of the most
important deals of the week. The town
site will be replatted and improvements
in the way of gas and electric light
plants store buildings and possibly two
factories, will soon be under way.
Pacific boulevard, to connect Long
Beach with Los Angeles, will be ready

1t is said that there remains but one

East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1906-12-28

A tract of forest land consisting of
71S,760 acres lying between the Wal
Iowa and Chesnimnus forest reserves,
in Wallowa and Union counties, was
yesterday withdrawn by the general
land office in Washington, to be set
aside as part of the two forest re-
serves named.
This tract lies along the high hills
overlooking Snake river in the Sheep
Creek and Prairie country north and
east of Joseph, and includes one of
the finest winter ranges in eastern
Oregon.
This practically includes the entire
forest area of Wallowa county in the
reserves and leaves but little outside
range or timber land available for
settlement.
| The stockmen of Wallowa county
/ favor the withdrawal of this land, as
/ it places practically all of the range
| of the county in reserves and gives
/ Wallowa people preference in the use
of the range for grazing purposes,
]
of Wallowa have ranged in this terri
tory exclusively and consequently Will
be given preference in its allotment
for range purposes by the forestry
department.
This tract is well watered and forms
one of the finest range districts in
oregon. It includes high mountains
on which forage is excellent for five
months in the summer and fall sea-
sons, and which have been used as
summer ranges for Wallowa anc
Union county herds for many years.
Wallowa stockmen petitioned tc
have this last remaining range sec
. ton set aside as a part or the re
serves in order to prevent outside
sheep from crowding into 1t while
