launch forth upon building boom
that bids fair to last through the
greater part of the winter. With the
residence and business buildings that
are being erected 1t is contemplated
that the railroad yards VIII also be the
scene of great building activity.
The Southern Pacific shops are to
be enlarged according to the plans
that were submitted some months ago.
In the main building gallery will be
added to make more room for ma
chimes, lathes, etc and employees.
One or two eastern firms who are
engaged in the wholesale busi-

ing preparations for the erection of
flats throughout the city.
