are more Independent telephones in

that the Bell Company have been
in the field for twenty years and
over or three times as long as the
Independent.
They say that their rights of way,
franchises, etc, are permanent and
that other companies would be a
nuisance to the public but forget to
state that it would be any benefit
to the public to have a contract with
a company who have agreed to give
them service at specified rate for
twenty years, they also forget to
state that the new company have
a bonafde twenty year franchise

According to their theory, the

and the Louisville and Nashville
are already established and shoLld

They say these promoters, as
they call the Independent Telephone
companies, have no intention of go
ing into the telephone business
permanently but that they are in
for the money there is in it. If such
be the case, why are there more IN
dependent telephones in existence
today than there are Bell? And
why have financial men invested In
independent telephone properties
to the extent of $500, 10000
If competition is such a farce,
why do the Bell Company keep sal

doze the public against the uses
and advantages Of a modern SER

Why do they hold up the little

Letter From Manager Of clarks-
Vile Company.


Clarksville, Tenn, Nov 20
Mr. r. B TYLER,
Hopkinsville, Ky
DEAR SIR. Replying to your favor
of the 10Th inst, making inquiry in
regard to the inslnuations of the
Cumberland (BelD Telephone Corr
Pany, that this Company had sold
out or offered to sell to them, will
say that this story was published
here at one time during the past
summer and was vigorously denied
at the time. Any such insinuation
or statement is utterly false.
In regard to the Harrison Tel
ephone Company, that refers to a
deal made more than ten years ago.
This method of warfare is used
in all places by the Cumberland
(Bel) Telephone people where in
dependent plants are in course of
construction or in prospect. The
local papers were full of such stuff
for some time after we were in op.
GRAFTON here. 1t was always met
with silent disregard on our part
except in one instance where they
published fake proposition from
us to sell out to them, which was
promptly denied as stated above.
Our subscription list is growing
nicely and we enclose you herewith
list of new subscribers published
recently and also send you a copy
of our directory as we'll as that of
the Cumberland people.
We do not use the party line sys-
TEN in the city at all but you will
notice that nearly every Bell sub
scriber has two phones, each of
which IS listed separately.
You have our best wishes for
success, of which we have no doubt,
and will be glad to render you any
service in our power.
Yours truly.
The GAINESVILLE Home Telephone Co.
H. NJ. PERRY, Manager.

A .Eew Faets 70 Give the People.

A Few Facts to Give the People.
Why are the Cumberland Bell so
anxious to WARN THE DEAR PUBLIC
against competition? Because
they know to their sorrow what the
results have been where they had
to meet competition and because
they know full we'll what the re-
suits will be in Hopkinsville.
The Bell Telephone company
have been in operation in Ohio and
Indiana for over twenty years and
The Independent people about
seven years and yet in spite of the
great start The Bell Company had
over The Independent there are in
Ohio to-day OVER 125,000 INDEPEND-
ENT TELEPHONES AND LESS THAN
10000 BELL TELEPHONES. In In
diana there are OVER $4,000 INDIE
PENDENT TELEPHONES AND LESS
THAN 4O, 900 BELL TELEPHONES.
Why have the Independent Com
panies installed and put in service
zoo, 900 TELEPHONES in these two
states in SEVEN YEARS aud the Bell
Company less than 10000 TELE-
PHONES in twenty years.
The question has been answered
by the people and the reason for
their answer was because they
have got BETTER and MORE SERVICE
at a CHEAPER RATE.
Why did not the dear old Cumber-
land Telephone company who love
the dear public so we'll buy the
franchise the public offered for sale?
Because they knew that they could
not pay dividends on their over
capitalization if they had to give
the people a MODERN SERVICE at
FAIR RATE.
Why are they so sore on the IN
DEPENDENT PROMOTER and take the
great pains to warn the dear pub
lie against SIGNING CONTRACTS with
the Independent Company? 1t is
because they love the dear public
so well or is it because they know
full we'll that if the people once get
the use of private lines, copper
wire, secret service, long distance
telephones, prompt service, reason
able rates and no change in rate
for twenty years that they will
keep such service and such treat
ment in preference to past service
and past treatment furnished by
the great corporation known as the
Cumberland Bell Telephone conf
pany. The answer has been given
by the public all over the great
United States in the fact that in
seven years of development there

FOUR DAYS OF RIOT

Chicago. July 1S.-The riotous con-
duct OF the strikers of the Kellogg
Switchboard company and their SYM
pathizers during the last four days
has impelled Mayor Harrison to issue
proclamation urging all people to
remain away from the scene OF the
trouble, and calling upon the rioters
to cease from their work. Heavy
rain prevented the necessity II dis
pering mobs, and the work of handling
freight from the plant of the kellogg
company was not interfered with as
much as on former days.
A mob was chasing a Wagon of
freight from the Kellogg plant on
Taylor street and finding itself dis
tanced in the chase members of the
mob boarded a street car and ordered
the motorman to hustle and catch the
wagon. He wanted his fares. and they
refused TO pay so he stopped the car.
Then the mob wrecked it and would
have killed the crew, probably, If
police had not come to the rescue.
There have been no further develop
ments as to the teamsters, and Presi-
dent Young las not yet made his de-
mand on the Edison company to cease

When the stomach is overloaded;
when food is taken into it that fails to
digest, it decays and ipf1ames the mu-
cous membrane, exposing the nerves,

tion. This is called Catarrh OF the

Muncie, Ind, July 1S.-As soon as
his severed windpipe was patched up
sufficiently so that he could articulate,
after having been cut and slashed by
his wife in an effort to kill him, CHI is
tan Beck gave instructions that his
wife, now in the county Jail for the
crime, be given every possible con-
sideration, and that she be furnished
with everything that money could buy
to make her comfortable. Barring
septicaemia, or some similar compli-
cation, physicians think Beck's chances
for recovery a.e good.
Mrs. Beck made the attack upon her
husband with razor, on account Of
jealousy brought about by the gossip
of her neighbOrs. She had intended
to kill herself, but her husband wrest-
ed the weapon from her. Beck con-
dones his wife's crime, saying she was
not in her tight mind or she would
not have done it. 1t Is likely the
state will have to make its caseagainst

Text of the Document That the Gar Was
Asked To Receive and Consider.
The petition is addressed to His
Imperial Majesty, the Empe or of Rus
sia," and is as follows:
1.-The cruel outrages perpetrated at
Kischeneff during Easter of 1903 have
excited horror andreprobationthroug
out the world. Until your majesty
gave special and personal directions
the local autho tiles failed to main
tain order or suppress the rioting. The
victims were Jews and the assault
was the result of race and religious
prejudice. The rioters violated the
laws of Russia. The local officials
were derelict in the performance of
their duty. The Jews we the victims
of iudefensible Iawlessness. These
facts are made plain by the official re-
ports of, and by the official acts follow
ing. the Iiot.
Under ordinary conditions the aw-
full calamity would be deplored with
out dCe fear of a recurrence. But such
is net the case in the present instance
Your petitioners are advised that mil
lions Of Jews Russian subjects -
dwelling in southweste- n Russia are
In constant dread of fresh outbreaks.
They feel that ignorance, superstition
and bigofry, as exemplified by the riot
ers, are ever ready to prosecute them;
that the local officials. unless there
unto specially admonished, cannot he
relied on as strenuous protectors Of
their peace and security; that pub
lie sentiment Of hostility has been en-
gendered against them and hangs over
them as continuous menace
even II it be conceded that these
fears are to some extent exaggerated,
1t is unquestionabIy true that they ex-
ist, that they are not groundless and
that they produce effects Of great i'm
portance. The westward migration Of
Russian Jews. which has proceeded for
over twenty years, is being stimulated
by these fears, and already that move
ment f~s become so great as to over
shadow In magnitude the expulsion OF
the Jews from Spain and to rank with
the exodus from Egypt.
mo estimate is possible Of the mis-
cry suffered by the hapIess Jews who
feel driven to forsake their native land,
to sever the most sacred ties and to
wander forth to strange countries.
Neither IL 1t possible to estimate the
misery suffered by those who are un-
