Contractors Came Down.

Moscow, Idaho. May 26. Cons
tractors bidding on the .propo-
sails for completion of the state
university building have been
routed by the board of regents in
session here, and what appears
to have been a combination to
get a fancy price out of the state
for the work has fallen fiat and
the contract has been let at rea-
sonable figures. The board of
regents and Governor Mcconnell
opened bids late last night and
were overwhelmed with aston
ishment to learn that the figures
were several thousand dollars
above the expectations. The bids
which were as follows, were at
once rejected: Taylor & Lauder,

This moruing bids were again
invited and each bidder had low
cred his figures from $4,000 to
$4,000, all occupying the same
relative position. However,
new bidder, F. w. Abernethy, o.
Spokane, threw a bombshell ir
camp by running the figures
down to $69,55 This new bid

if there was one, had overlooked
such an onslaught, and the re
