COURTHOUSE BIDS
REJECTED AS HIGH
New Proposals Will Be Asked
Of Contractors in Hope Of
Getting Within Funds

Steps to hasten the building Of the
new county courthouse and jail re-
ceived q temporary setback, Thurs
day. afternoon, when the board OF
county commissioners found the bids
too high to bring the contract within
the $25O,000 bond issue. The bids
consequently were rejected and an
other advertising for new proposals
was ordered. This will be done short
ly, after which the board will have to
wait three weeks before 1t can open
the new offers and, II within the
county's means, award the contract
1t was intended to dispose OF Thurs
day.
The lowest combined courthouse
and jail bid, that of e. A. Moline, OF
Jamestown, was $2l7 1886. With the
heating. plumbing, ventilating and
electrical bids added to this, the to-
tai cost Of the buildings would have
totaled $262,185. or $12,185 above the
bond issue funds.
Only one bid would have permitted
the board to squeeze the contract
through, that Of .Bartelson and Ness,
Seattle contractors with q local rep
resentative. They offered to build the
courthouse and jail combined on an
alternate modernistic design Originate
ed since the special election on the
original design. for $203,30 0 With
the interior fittings and equipment
bids the total cost would have
amounted to $2le,100. The next low
est bid would have run the cost ISL
over the amount the county can
spend.
As the new design was not in ex-
istence at the time Of the special cleo
ton. the board hesitated to act
feeling that some taxpayers might
not approve the change. But none
Of the bids on the original design
shown to the voters as . suggestion
Of what the proposed building might
look like. was low enough to accent
Hence the decision to readvertise fol
new bids, in the hope more satisfac-
tory figures might be obtained.
