Contract Goes To Indianapolis

G. A. SMITH WILL HAVE CHARGE OF ERECTING NEW BRIDGES

He is the Representative of One of the Leading Bridge Building Concerns of the World

At the special meeting of the common council Tuesday evening, the contract for building bridges in place of the culverts destroyed by the June flood was awarded to the National Bridge company, of Indianapolis. The bids submitted by the company have already been printed in the Argus.

The representative of the company, Mr. G. A. Smith, who is a graduate of the engineering department of Purdue University, explained very thoroughly what his company would do and so well impressed the council that the contract was given to him without one dissenting vote.

The National Bridge Company, of Indianapolis, which Mr. Smith represents, is one of the leading bridge manufactories of the world. They have erected bridges in many of the leading cities of the United States and there is no doubt that their work here will be up to their usual standard.
