STE FOR An EXCHANGE |
TWIN CITY TELEPHONE COMPANY
PURCHASES ONE AT EIGHTH
AND CEDAR
PREPARING TO INSTALL PLANT
Switch Board With Capacity for
G,4OO Machines to Be Purchased
Large Expenditures
Contemplated.

The Twin City Telephone company has
secured property for an exchange in this
city and is preparing to expend money
lavishly in installing a switchboard and
plant of large capacity and capable OF
meeting any demands which may be made
upon it for some years to come. E. E.
Webster, general manager for the COM
pany, when asked about it yesterday,
said:
Yes. we have purchased, through
G. B. Whitehorn, the corner of Eighth
and Cedar streets upon which to build
our central exchange. We propose to
build Immediately in the city Of st. Paul
q telephone system second to none of its
size. Our new central exchange will be
equipped with modern switch board
with a capacity of 6,4C0 telephones, and
when fully equipped will represent an in
vestment of not less than $4,000. This,
with the Dale street exchange, will give
us capacity for 10,0G0 subscribers in ST.
ties at Minneapolis, will enable us to
handle q, COD telephones in the Twin Cities.
The public, we feel sure, will give us
little time when they understand that
within the last ninety days We have
taken possession Of this plant, paid off
over $175, 900 of debts and have planned and
have now under way extensions and i'm
provements covering practically the
whole of these two large and growing
cities. Within thirty days we will have
completed two exchange buildings, and
have purchased the sites for the erection
Of thoroughly modern and complete
central exchange in each city, and when
they further understand that we contem-
plate constructing nothing but private
or full metallic lines for every telephone
connected with our exchange. 1t re-
quires time and the expenditure of large
sum Of money, but we feel that these
two cities are entitled to a telephone
system second to none on earth and we
propose to give it to them We are a
home company and believe in the future
of our home, and you may depend upon
it We will do our part to establish a
thoroughly modern and wholly independ-
ent telephone system with the best ser
vice modern genius has been able to de-

That the state board of control does
not believe that the state can better af-
ford to carry its own risk on it's public
institutions than TO pay premiums on in

fact that negotiations with the insurance
companies have already been opened by

board, but the companies have been ask
