Editor Daily Hcrdld:
Anent the recent effort of the Bell
Telephone Co. to beittle the Citizens
Telephone Co. by printing and distrib-
uting broadcast list of subscribers of
each company, | would like to inquire
about the agreement that was entered
into by quite a number of subscribers
and stockholders of the Citizens Com
pany not to use a Bell telephone while
they were using Citizens.
Does it not appear that the Bell Com
pany is getting very bold again, and has
come to the conclusion that it owns our
people whether or no? Being a stock
holder in the Citizens Company. and
having signed and kept the agreement
aforesaid, Notwithstanding my competl-
tors are using both telephones, | make
this inquiry to find out whether l am
under moral obligations to keep this
agreement or not. CITIZEN.
