REMOVAL OF POST
OFFICE is PROBABLE
AUTHORITIES INCLINED TO
FAVOR KENNEDY BUILDING.
TO ASK FOR BIDS.

Late developments in the postoffice
situation are that the government will
again advertise for bids for the cree
ton of a public building on the lot
bought some years ago for that pur-
pose, and that the postoffice may soon
be moved from its present location to
the Kennedy building on the corner Of
Lee and Stonewall streets.
AS to the erection of building, Mr..
R. r. Marlin, secretary Of the Cham
Der of Commerce, and other citizens of
| Dawson, received a telegram Sat
urday from Senator Harris in
which he stated that he had learned
at the treasury department that the
department has asked for bids for the
erection of building The previous
bids were in excess of the amount Of
money available.
Information that the postoffice may
be removed from its present location
also comes in letter from Senator
Harris to Dawson citizens who had
written him on the subject. Mr.. Har-
ris enclosed a copy of a letter from
John H. Bartlett, first assistant post
master general, in which he states that
Messrs Kennedy had agreed in order
to meet certain requirements to mod
ify their proposal to lease their build
ing to the government and that the
department feels that this proposition
should be accepted"
Postmaster Cheatham has received
no official information from the au-
thorities at Washington in regard to
either the advertising for bids for the
erection of building or the removal
of the postofice to the Kennedy build
ing.
The government never rents build
