The Telephone in Operation.

The telephone went into official opera
ton last Monday morning at O'Clock,
though the obliging manager, Mr.. W. W.
Gibbs. had been giving subscribers the use
OF it for two or three days previous. With
out question it is marvellous convent
ence. Its convenience also gives new
turn to business. A gentleman remarked
Tuesday that he had transferred the sup
plying OF two branches of his family
wants to other firms because he hated the
trouble of buying the articles, and his wife
could now attend to ordering those things
without the trouble of dressing to 60 On
the street," as a telephone call would d,
the work.
There is also some amusement to bs had
out of the telephone. At one Of the female
colleges Friday night, a crowd of girls
stood around the ''phone' listening to
some songs being very nicely sung by
gentleman in dry goods store down on
Main street. At the VINDICAToR Office
we can and do enjoy some very sweet music
by the blind pupils at the D. D. 6 B. In
stitution.
OF course some very amusing mistakes
have occurred from unfamiliarity with
the use of the ''circuit wire" lever, and in
several cases the most private and conf
Dental conversations have had the unex-
pected publicity Of being talked to the
whole town.
1t is a matter of regret to every business
man that neither the two railroad depots
in the city nor the B. & y. telegraph office
are furnished with telephones. It would
save an immense deal of walking and it
appears to US that the railroad companies
should consider the convenience of the
Stanton people and their own interest at
least to that extent. AS to the B & o.
F telegraph office the amount of business it
will permit to elude it. for lack of this &C.
commodation, should call its attention to
it.
|. In the nature of business it ought not
to be long before there is a telephone con-
nection with Waynesboro. The Highland
Recorder is advocating the necessity of a
line to that county and says;
While DR.. Patterson of this place was
in Staunton last week, he made some in
quiry as to the practicatility and probable
CO. of constructing a line of telephone
communication from Stanton to Monte
rey. He found that the project was prac-
ticable. and that the entire cost would not
exceed 5000. The trees which abound the
greater part of the route could be used as
natural telephone poles, and the expense
lesseled thereby.

Moses is very prominent speaker. and

people of Blue Earth county II falsi.
Tier and u slanderer. put this IN
plain words so that my friends in
Blue Earth county can see whether
or not am the traitor to my party
that the editor IF the Rerieao would
have you believe. Then to think
that a person like Wise, known to be
treachcrous to party and individuals,
should dare To accuse another OF such
things is beyond our ken, but Its
that superabundance vi cheek. l
wonder il he has forgotten when T.
G.. Payne ran for county school
superintendent, when VIM. Hoerr
ran for county treasurer, when Torrey
ran for clerk Of court! If Wise has.
they have not. and some of these
days they will buy him II leather
