The Independent Telephone Situa
ton in Iowa.
HARDY AND M'FATRIDGE ON SITUATION
The Moravia Telephone Promoter
Gives Some Interesting Data ON
the Subject-A Phenom-
email Growth.

Notwithstanding the large meeting
Of representatives, of independent tale-
phone companies, which was held in
this city recently, reports continue
to be rife to the effect that there Is an
effort being made on the part Of The
Bell Telephone company TO absorb all
independent lines, especially in Iowa.
a Courier reporter met and talked
with a prominent telephone magnate
recently who entertained this view, and
4 explained his theory of how it was inn
possible for the independent comran-
les to long survive. In striking contr asst
to the belief of the Bell representative
above referred to- is that of w. p
Hardy, of the Ottumwa exchange, and
G. NJ. McFatridge, of the Moravia ex-
change, two independent companies
! that have been very successful and
succeeded in building up a large and
ever increasing business.
Mr.. Hardy said today in speaking of
the matter that the growth of the IN
dependent telephone business in the
past three years, especially, has been
phenomenal. Expiration of patents on
the Bell phone has made it possible
for independent companies to build
exchanges and erect toll lines without
fear OF litigation for infringement.
Conditions In Iowa.
In a recent interview, Mr.. McFat-
ridge, of the Morayia exchange, after
thoroly reviewing the accomplishments
bf the independent exchanges and the
proposed Improvements and new lines,
including that of the Ottumwa com
pany, which will build from this city
TO Blakesburg as soon as the weather
will permit, gave the following state
menu of the business already estab-
lished in this state:
In Iowa today there are about 200
mutual or independent companies, nov-
ering nearly every county in the state,
and not only that but connecting thou
sands Of farm houses as we'll. Their
size and location is as follows:

Rcstorlng Dr. Erench,s skin.

Restoring DF. french SIKH.
The Philadelphia Press of January 3,
1900. contained the following. which,
we know, will be read with interest by
big majority of HERALD readers:
'.Dr. j. william White is conducting
an interesting operation in skin graft
ing, under new process, on DR.. Samuel
French, of Plymouth, Pa. at the
University Hospital. DIR. French was
admitted to the hospital two months
ago, with severe burns of the face and
head, which ne received by the ex-
plosion of lamp while on a hunting
trip near Aleeker, Colo. His left eve
was blown ont, and his ear was torn OFT
in the explosion and greater part of
his hair was burned from his head. He
came East after remaining several
weeks at Denver hospital, and decided
to undergo the operation OF skin graft
lug.
Thus far, DR.. White has performed
six successful operations on his patient.
the latest having been on Saturday,
when about six inches of skin was re-
moved from the leg of Claud French,
brother of the patient. The live part
iGles, in the form of dust, were then
sprinkled on the head of DR.. French.
The portion of the flesh that was treated
in this manner three weeks ago, has
taken on a new growth, and no sem
blance of the burned skin remains. The
new process of skin grating consists
of scraping only the productive tissues
of the skin from a good healthy body.
and transferring it tO the patients body
in the shape Of dust. This process is
eutirAiy nav to the medical profession.
and so far. the engrafted skin has grown
more rapidly than by tho older process"
