the court as the amount to be
expended upon the improve
ment, Metzger Is Low
The bids on the general con
tract were exceptionally close,
with the exception of the low bid,
there being almost as much varia
tion between the first and second
bids as between the second and
high bids, Mr. Metzger was the
only low bidder and stated, follow
ing; the awarding of the contracts,
that he estimated his advantage In
being on the ground at about $10,-
000 and figured the job on that
basis. Tile next low bid was suu
tnitted by Settergren lirothera of
Portland, whose basic bid was
S1S7.4S7 and the third waa II. K.
Doerlng, Portland, J158.726. The
architects stated that the bids on
tblB building were closer than in
any recent contracts with which
they have had occasion to deal.
Of the eleven ,-bids submitted
eight were between $102,000 and
$168,800, Indicating lite keen com
petition over this contract.
Alternate bids wero submitted
by the Beveral contractors, the ba
sic bids being on metal covered
doors and the alternate hollow
metal doors and metal trim. The
latter doors are higher in price,
but give a better job. Mr. Mer
ger's alternate bid was also low,
being $500 under the next bid.
and the nlternate proposal was
accepted, bringing his total con
tract to $150,015.
Contractor Praised
. The architects expressed thein-
selves as being well pleased with
the nwnrdlng of tho contract to
! Mr. Met7.ger. Not only does iho
I award meet approval because )t
j goes to a local concern, but the
architects personally have bad a
good deal of experience In the
past with Mr. Mother's work and
compliment him very highly.
John Tourtellottc, ot the firm
of Tourtellotte and Hummel, who
drew tho plnns for the building,
states that he considers Mr. Metz
ger to bo one of the best con
creto men in the state, and he al
so knows that he will fulfill every
letter of the contract in a careful
anil skillful way. The awarding
of the contract to Mr Metzger, the
architect stated, aspires a build
ing ctiuslrucled entirely In accord
ance with the plans mid in n thor
ough ami workmanlike manner. ,.
Scott Gets Plumbing
Pleasure was also expressed
ovor the fact that tho heating and
plumbing contract wiui awarded
locally. Elgin bids were received
on Iho healing and five on the
Plumbing. Two locnl bids wore
submitted, one by Win. Scott ami
the oilier by Keyset1 and Hast, tho
hitler firm heinK next low with a
total bid of $19,620. Mr. Scott
submitted a bid of $11,128 on the
hotting and $6,870.33 on tho
plumbing, ami offered a reduction
of $1.1(1 on Iho contract if holli
jobs be awarded to him, making a
total dries of $17,848.33.
J. A. nrnke of Albany submitted
the low bid on electric wiring, but
because of an iiTogularitv of his
proposal the court look tho bids
under advisement. Mr. Drake bid
$3,216, t lie Ilnilny Klectrlc coin-1
pnny of Portland bid $4,011 mid
Davidson electric of Portland
I tt, ut,;. mere tycre ri'ven bids
sunmitted.
Three elevator bids were receiv
ed and six on jail equipment.
The bids on electric wiring, jnil
equipment nnd elevator were
taken under advisement by the
court until this nfternoon.
Use Local Labor
The fact that the two main con-
iruL-is were lei locally brought a
groat dual of pleasure to Hoseburg
people nnd lo Iho county court
nntl advisory committee. The In
I cnl contractors will use local la
! bur almost exclusively and local
I materials as far us possible, which
! will be an Important factor iu the
