A TELEPHONE SYSTEM FOR
DODGE CITY.

The time has come when a telephone
plant in Dodge City is almost necessity.
In this busy age, time is too valuable to
waste in sending messages on foot when
the obedient electric current will carry
them simultaneously.
Recognizing the importance of this pro-
ject, and that the time was ripe for under
taking it, Messrs. Hastings and Todd secur-
ed the necessary charter December 2Sth,
and have since been busily and steadily
engaged in perfecting their arrangements
to supply this convenience.
1t may not be generally known that the
Bell Telephone company claim to own
this world, and have apportioned that
palt of it embracing Kansas and Missouri
to what is known as the Missouri u
Kansas Telephone Company of Kansas
City. This company claim the right to
put up and own all the telephone eX-
changes in Kansas They do not sell the
phones, but rent them, at what is consid-
cred an unreasonable price. And in any
event the plants they put in are owned
by foreign corporation. and the service
is not as satisfactory as when under the
ownership and management OF home men.
The only opposition now in the field

competing with the Bell company. is the
Cushman Telephone company OF Chicago,
ri. i and powerful organization, which
SO ! has successfully opposed the Bel

But he regarded it simply as scientific

ance, and hence did not patent it. A
number of plants have been put in under
the Cushman system, and are conceded
to work more satisfactorily than any
others eyer made. Wherever this sys
tenn has been introduced the Bell COM
pany has brought suit against the par
ties using it, and SO far all suits have
been taken up and defended by the
Cushman company at their own expense.
1t is expected that decisions will be
reached in some of these cases this
month. and if the result shows the Cush,
man company to be in the right, and
that they can and will defend those who
purchase and use their instruments; then
the plant will be put in here at once.
This is the only reason Messrs Hastings
and Todd are delaying the matter. 1t is
expected representative of the Cush-
man company will be in Dodge within
two weeks to complete the arrangements
now In progress, and that Dodge City
will have frst-class telephone system
early in the spring Over fifty unsolic-
tied applications for instruments have al
ready been made.

At recess, the wind began blowing,
and three-fourths of the crowd left for
home, and left only 25 to listen to the
debate which followed. The question
was:
Resolved, That we should not have

The speakers were not limited to
length of speeches, and the discussion
lasted till after IL O. clock.
The question was decided in favor of
the negative. At this time the storm
had increased in severity and going

Walt Mason. in an article concerning
reporters, says as many truthful things
as can be crowded in the same amount
of loaded minion, run in, and more
than could be expected from man OF
his veracity, says these things also,
which are as true as unclad Greek
slave of truth herself. "In a reason
able percentage of cases the party in
terogated doesn't know enough to qua!-
ify himself for stall in the asylum,
and in such cases the party in question
snubs the reporter. He has asked
myrads of favors of the young man,
and they have been granted, but when
the opportunity comes to return the
compliment by giving such information
as he may possess, he substitutes a
snub. Any fool can snub man. A
snub is vulgar at all time; it is the
trade mark, the banner, the advertise
ment of ill-breeding. 1t is the refuge
of towards, the stock in trade of DULLES
and fools. 1t is always reprehensible,
and particularly so when applied to a
reporter, who is always willing to do a
dozen favors in return for one. A re-
porter is of necessity an educated man,
and therefore sensitive. A sensitive
man would prefer blow to a snub
any time"

Bucklin and E. S. MacCartney, of South

Reports showed increased interest
and growing favor for this school of the
Prophets. Letters of congratulation
were read. A monthly paper was
ordered.
It is expected this movement will
bring large number of ministers and
laymen to our city at the opening of the
school year.
A building must soon be secured for
the use of the library and the sessions
of the school. There are plans now
under consideration of which we will
tell our readers in the near future.
This is one of the growing institutions
which has come to stay and will be of
permanent value to our city.

There we're not many scholars at

A WOODEN MILL.

The proposition to remove large
wooden mill from Iowa to Dodge City,
which has been somewhat discussed
among our business men, has recently
been submitted at a very reasonable fig
ure, and under a proposition which not
only places it within our easy reach, but
makes it very desirable acquisition.
We hope the matter will not be allowed
to rest until it takes definite shape.
