OF OLYMPIA
NOW BEING RNEO
Old Lobby Building Sold and
Wrecked for the Lumber Which
1t Contains.

The Lobby" building, as it has
been called for years is being torn
down and the lumber it contained
used for other purposes. This build
ing is one of the historic structures
of Olympia. and has long been a land
mark known to all who were at all
familiar with this city.
The structure was built many years
ago by Alex Farquhar. Several ad-
ditions were made to 1t until it
reached the size it had for the past
score of years. 1t was first used as
q dairy.
1t was occupied for many years by
a hardware store. farm implements
and plumbing. After the death of
Mr.. Farquhar the business was closed
out. and in 1895 it was used for the
legislative session.
Then it was that it got the name
of The Lobby Building The Olym-
pia Hotel which stood on the present
site of the Post Office had burned,
and the new wing of the state house
was under construction, so the legis-
lature convened in this building.
which served also as lobbying head
quarters in the absence of adequate
hotel facilities. 1t was during this
