FIGHT IS WAXING WARM
The Bell Telephone Company
Steals a March.
GETS THE NORTH MONTANA
Secures Control of the Lines From the
Electric City Company-The Old
Directors Sold Out-A Law
Suit May Follow.

Great Falls. Jan. 1.-THE fight be-
tween the new and old telephone COM
panies is waxing warm and as usual the
people at large are benefiting thereby.
The old company furnishes instruments
and their use at any old price, while the
new company, which began the rate
war, holds its patrons by means of SEN
timent, and with hard and fast con-
tracts. The Bell Telephone company
stole march on it's rival the other day
and secured the control of the North
Montana lines, which up to this date
has been under the control of the Elec-
trio City company. The story of the
move is told by the president of the
North Montana company, who is also
president of the Electric City company,
and therefore prejudiced in its favor.
This afternoon he made the following
statement to the Standard:
Mr.. e. Stackhouse came TO NE and
said that he had purchased the stock
of one of the directors, w. F. Brown,
and for that reason Mr.. Brown desired
TO resign, and he, Stackhouse, desired
to be elected in his place. Accordingly
! called a meeting OF the board OF di-
rectors Of which l am the president
When We had met | found present III
addition to Mr.. Stackhouse and the d.
rectors. l. Parker Veazey. Mr.. Brown
was there, and said that he had trans
ferred his stock to Stackhouse. He
rendered his resignation al the same
time. Stackhouse was elected men,
Der of the board. Then Max Lobe, an
other director, said that he had also
transferred his stock and wished to re-
sign. His place was filled by the young
lady who acts as Stenographer for
Stackhouse. Next w. $. Frary arose
and said he had sold his stock and re-
signed his position as director. /. Par
ker Veazey was the purchaser and was
promptly elected to fill his place.
The next thunderbolt came from
Sam Stephenson. the secretary and
treasurer and also director. He had
also sold out and Harry Sommers, the
state manager of the Bell company, was
made a member of the board. The next
move was the presentation of a resolu-
ton to the effect that the line be given
over for the following year to the Bell
company. | objected to the resolution
and TO allowing it to come before the
meeting on the ground that we had a
contract for a year with the Electric
City company. [ asked for the minutes
of the meeting in November which in
my recollection contained a vote au-
thcrizng me as the president of the
company to make years contract
with the new telephone company. Mr..
Stephenson read the minutes of the
meeting and they contained nothing of
the sort. That. of course. settled the mat
ter. The resolution was passed and now
there is probably law suit against
the company to be brought by the Elec-
trio City Telephone company"
Mr.. Herzog said further that so far
as the contract was concerned it was
only matter of about So a month rev.
enue for the lessee and would cut no
figure in the conduct of the business. Ii
was only matter of principle.
