intendency of the State Engineer, said State Prison as Aforesaid etc
Te State Engineer and the AT torney General made an extensive
trip over the country gathering data in regard to prison construction
that will be of great value in com pleung the plans 10 n pms-
on to be erected for this state and the Board OF Prison commissioners
should be ready to advertise r bids and star the actual work Oh

Just what steps have been taken by the Board in regard Ito selecting
a site for the new Prison have not been made public but as the first
section of the Act authorizing the location and construction OF the new
institution provides that steps should be taken ito acquire a suitable site
Immediately upon the approval of Act it is to be presumed hat M

the site has been determined upon.
There wa u rumor circulated to the effect that it as to the in
a site for the prison until after the next session of the legislature when
