is mi? mum Seattle, Monday, June sth, 1876 A HEALTHFUL 81 ON" One of the svs ns times hereabouts, if l * Hr S'' n, ' ri ''- V low price of roal *** that *• ruline at present. * h '' adtaw-e of price* has not M't l' aci * w ,* th tllff £ ro * th of business and advance of values. By a reference to our current n-al estate record, atlA comparison of the average considerations that obtain now with those of fast y»-ars, it will be discovered that unimproved pro j»erty as a general Ahing sells about as low now as it <w\ five or si i years ago. Yet in Ae same time,' the actual value of rity property has in creased many-fold and is likely to increase still faster in the future. Lands located <jne or two mile» from Occidental sqwe sell at from fifty to one hundred dollars j#r acre, while lands on Salmon Bay, only eight or nine miles from town, have recently changed hands at fiv«» dol lars per acre, And the richest bottom land in tin* world, in White River Valley, well locat«?d and considerably improved, can be bought for ten to forty dollars per acre. Choice build ing lots in the suburbs atill sell at twenty-five to one hundred dollars. And this depression of price is likely to continue a while longer. Its causes are the preponderance of landed wealth here as in new coun tries all other kinds, and the demand for money iu /ike development of busi ness. lAnd being the most plentiful equivalmt and the easiest obtained, is thrown upon the market in great abundance. Nevertheless, an acre of la*d hefe is actually worth as muchtas an of land of equal pro ductiveness in Central California, New York or Massachusetts. The \ effect of this condition of things is, thai the of the ; country of the city, are favored, sinfu •premium is put upon the iiifNu and invpstmeiit of capital frgra abroad.
