The Madison daily leader. [volume] (Madison, S.D.) 1890-current, 1900-04-03

The preparatory work in the supervis-
ing architects department at Washing
ton for the erection Of the new public
building at Aberdeen is being rushed as
rapidly as possible. The intention now
is to have the building enclosed before
cold weather sets in next fall, 80 that the
interior work can be done during the
winter months. An increase in the ap-
preparation is fully expected in order
that the building may be made OF stone
instead OF brick as originally planned.
Senator Kyle is paying close attention to
the matter and will cause the building
to be given precedence in order that it
may be completed at the earliest date
possible.
