Building Set Fp
Bringing more definitely to
mind that plans for the proposed
construction of the Nome Federal
Building, are receiving more than
ordinary attention in Washington,
D. C., a letter to Postmaster Guy
K. Mish at Nome, from the de
partment in Washington, contain
ed the information that the date
for the receipt of bids on the con
struction of the proposed build
ing, had been advanced from
April 6th to March 2nd.
This news gives every promise
that the successful bidder should
be ready to commence work on
the building in Nome following
the arrival of the first boat this
spring. Efforts of federal, terri
torial, and commercial interests
have been devoted for sometime
pasit to forcing quicker consider
ation of the project, and at last
their efforts seem to be bearing
fruit.
