The

at

is
one
of
those
terrible
things
that
it

was
impossible
to
avoid
and
wjth
which

such
as
the
partial
destruction
of

a
few
years

Such
visitations
simply
remind
us
of
the
insecurity
of
our

and
of
the
impossibility
of

with
all
his

and

coping

with

DEMAND
FOR
PROPERTY
There
is
a
little
improvement
in
the
demand
for
city
property
The
tax
.sale
o
yesterday
was
rather
a
satisfactory
one
in
that
it
caused
over
seventy
people
to
pay
up
their
taxes
just
before
the
pro
perties
were
offered
and
a.number
of
the
lots
offered
for
sale
were
purchased
at
more
or
less
satisfactory
prices.
Because
a
person
purchases
a
lot
for
$150
at
a'tax
sale
is
no
indication
that
the
adjoining
lots
will
be
sold
as
low
as
that.
Often
people
let
their
property
go
to
tax
sale
in
order
to
tide
them
over
a
crisis.
Before
the
expiration
of
the
two
years
before
which
he
sale
is
made
final,
the
properties
are
redeemed.
Often,
too,
the
lots
offered
for
taxes
are
subject
to
some
disability
by
which
they
are
not
as
valuable
as
adjoining
properties.

This-is-mentio'ned
simply
to
show
that
tax

are
not
an

of
actual
values
in
a
neighborhood.
The
fact
that
there
is
a
good

for
lots
at
a
tax
sale
is,
however,
an
indication
of

city,
that
there
is
an
improved
demand
for
that
class
of
property.
It
Is
a
straw
which
points
out
which
way
the
wind
is
GET
PEOPLE
TO
PURCHASE
LAND
Ve
firmly
believe
in
the
principle
of
getting
people
to
purchase
city
lands
wherever
possible.
Every
lot
that
is
held
by
private
owners
meante
so
much
more
taxes
being
paid
to
the
city.
If
the
city
.could
get
rid
of
all
its
lots,
the
taxes
on
the
rest
would
be
lessened.
It
may
possibly
in
some
cases
interfere
with
a
sale
by
a
private
owner
but
in
the
long
run
it
would
be
better
for
all
the
property
owners.
There
are
cases
where
the
city
cannot
expect
to
get
out
of
the
property
all
the
charges
against
it.
This
property
we
think
should
be
sold
for
what
it
is
worth
and
not
held
indefinitely.
Many
close
in
properties
are
held
today
at
high
figures.
Prices
in
some
neighborhoods
are
quite
high.
There
are
very
few
cities
in
the
west
where
real
estate
values
have
held
as
well
as
they
have
n
Prince
Rupert.
We
are
now
inclined
to
think
that
there
will
be
no
more
dropping
off
but
a
tendency
for
prices
to
stiffen,
except
in
those
neighborhoods
which
are
already
high
enough.
There
is
also
a
possibility
of
something
happening
here
which
might
add
greatly
to
real
estate
values.
