One of the buildings that was designed by Joseph is the State Capital Publishing Company Building. The ground breaking for the building started in 1902 in Guthrie Oklahoma. The Building is a four story structure that was built to replace the old building that burned to the ground. The building and was finished the same year that is built. The building housed the first newspaper published in the Oklahoma Territory, the State Capitol grew into the largest printing house west of the Mississippi River. In 1975, the building was acquired by the Oklahoma Historical Society, who had plans to outfit it as a publishing museum. The State Capital Publishing Museum opened in 1983. In the 1990s and again in the 2000s, budget cuts led to the trimming of staff and programs at the museum, and unexpected building maintenance problems in 2012 led to a decision to close the museum indefinitely. As of 2016, the museum has remained closed since 2012.
