State Wide Dissatisfaction Over
Award of Capitol Contract With
Indiana Stone.
COLUMBUS IS FIRST UP
Home of the Rock Quarries Willing
to Raise Large Sum Toward Max
ing Up Difference.

Columbus, Nov. 18.-At mass
meeting of the citizens here this eve
ming $l0,850 was subscribed to fund
that is intended to go toward making
up the difference in the cost between
Bedford and Columbus stone for the
state capitol additions.
The total amount between the two
kinds of stone in the bid of Gagnon
& Co. is Sal, 900, and it is believed
that other counties in the state will
make up the difference, at least
plan to this effect has been started
today by citizens Of Billings and
Columbus.
In order to refute the charge that
his bid for the stone was exorbitant,
NJ. A. Jacobs, superintendent Of the
Montana Sandstone company Of this
city, today issued the following state
ment:
Sandstone Company's Statement.
TO the People and the State OF
Montana:
"In order that you may know the
exact facts regarding the difference N
price of Montana sandstone pro-
duced at the quarry in this city and
the limestone from the quarries at
Bedford, Ind, as shown by the bids
for the additions to the capitol at
Helena, I wish to submit the follow
ing:
"The successful bidders for the
erection of the wings to the capitol
were Gagnon & Co., Of Billings.
Their figures were for the erection
of the building of Columbus sand
stone At the same time they sub
mitted a proposition to substitute
limestone from the quarries at Bed
ford, Ind, for the Columbus stone at
reduction of $41,0O0 This repre-
sents the actual difference in the cost
of the two materials.
1T has been stated that the figures
submitted by the Montana Sandstone
company were exorbitant and higher
than figures heretofore submitted
for the same class of work in other
parts of the state.
''This is wrong We have just
completed the cut stone for the Ma
sonic temple and the Elks' hall at
Billings, are now working On the
stone for the Cowell & Dixon building
at Missoula. The stone in each o.
these jobs was figured at a slightly
higher price per cubic foot than the
prices submitted in the capitol build
ing bids. We figured this stone as
cheaply as it was possible to do sc
and pay union wages in Montana
which we have always done.
"The quarry at Columbus has been
under my management for the past
nine years and, during that time, we
have furnished stone for many of the
best buildings in the state of Mon
tana. The federal building at Hell

stone from Columbus and we believe
