THE OPINION OF. CONTRACTOR
PARKES REGARDING WALLA
WALLA COURT HOUSE
Will Proceed With the
Work of Repairing Structure
Parkes in Charge

The county commissioners have
about decided to proceed with the work
of repairing and overhauling the Wal
la Walla county court house and hall
of records. The commissioners held
conference with Contractor E. R..
Parkes yesterday afternoon and fair
idea of the cost of placing the two
buildings in presentable shape was OBJ
tanned. Contractor Parkes roughly es-
timated that the cost of repairing the
court house would be about $4,000.
The proposed work will include the
patching up Of places about the build
ing where the cement facing mas worn
away, installing new cutters on the
roof doing away with the wooden bal
ustrade on the top of the structure, re-
placing it with an iron railing and put
ting on several sections of tin roofing
that is unserviceable. After this work
is finished the building will be given
three coats of good paint. The inter-
ior work contemplated will be to re-
place the cement floor in the county
iail. and kalsomine several of the up
stairs offices, where the plaster is
badly cracked.
Contractor Parkes agreed to super
intend the work for IS day. He sug-
gested, and the commissioners con-
Cured, that contracts for doing the
painting and papering and putting
down cement walks about the yard,
should be let by contract, the work to
be superintended by Mr.. Parkes, he to
be responsible for a faithful carrying
out of the plans and specifications by
the contractors. AS to repairing the
court house, it was decided that the
work could hardly be done by contract
as it was almost all repair work and it
would be almost impossible to accu-
rately estimate the cost.
Good for Twenty Years.
After a thorough inspection of the
court mousse MI. fdTkoS dSSSIlcu lIdI
the building was perfectly safe and
would give good service for 20 years
yet. The walls are in almost perfect
condition, although the outside of the
building looks shabby through years
of neglect. The southeast wall of the
building is grimmy from smoke, which
comes from the chimney at that point.
1t is proposed to elevate the chimney
several feet in order to allow the smoke
! to clear the roof.
The hall of records is to be done
! over inside and out. The cement work
in several places is cracking and fall
ing off, and it will be necessary to al
most replace the south side of the
| structure. The woodwork in the in
terror is badly SCARED and will be re-
painted AMI grained, while new paper
| will be put on all of the four offices.
