The board was meeting again this afternoon, trying to determine which of the bids to accept. The decision to be reached was complicated by suggestion of an alter- nate design by Architect Ira L. Rush. ‘When the special election was held a colonial design was printed in the campaign circulars as a suggestion of the possible style of the proposed courthouse. The architect today sub- mitted a modernistic design of stone |2' base with brick super-facade orna- mented in brick piers, which can be built for.less money, the saving on the exterior structure being made available for the fittings and fur- nishings of the interior and assuring @ building within the $250,000 fund available. Combinations Above Funds E. A. Moline, Jamestown, appeared to be lowest bidder on the original building on a bid of $170,385. On a ‘combination of courthouse’ and jail his offer was $217,385. As the lowest combination heating, plumbing and ventilating bid on the original design of building that of H. A. Thompson, was $22,925 and the ‘the | low electrical bid, that of E. E. Ricker, ‘was $8,590, the cost of the building in accepting this combination would be | $201,900. The cost of the combined jail-and courthouse on the $217,385 bid, with a heating, plumbing: and ventilation combination by Frank Grambs on a bid of $31,700 and an electric bid of $13,100 by:E. E. Ricker would bring the combined structure to $262,185. Lowest bids an the jail alone were $7,000 by Olson and Orheim, Minot, with heating and plumbing bids by J. C. Canning, Williston, $9,070 and electrical work bid by E. E. Ricker of $4,518, a combination total on the jail alone of $60,588. Tt was because the combination bids exceed the $250,000 bond issue that the alternate modernistic design was proposed. As three members of the board favored making the change so as to come within resources, the out- look was that the shift would be made by the board. Mass of Figures in Bids ‘The bids formed a mass of confus- ing figures. Besides the original courthouse design, there were the figures on the combination of this style of courthouse and jail, combin- ation bids on the alternate modernis- .|tic design and six sets of alternate bids on the use of marble on interior parts, the substitution of a concrete fireproof roof on a steel deck and another alternate on the omission of wrecking the old building. All the alternate bids added to the cost of the courthouse except the omission of ‘courthouse structure were: E. A.
