TELEPHONE AGITATION
MAY POSSIBLY Pc ENDED

The Retail Merchants association
Moline has officially decided to drop
the agitation among business men
with the object of settling upon one
of the telephone systems to be pat
ronized exclusively in order to do
away with the expense of keeping
up instruments on both systems.
The Moline merchants were first
to raise the question and the Rock
Island merchants then took the mat
ter up and appointed committee
to act jointly with the one from Mo-
line. A joint meeting was had and the
whole thing was submitted to sub
committee, where it has rested since.
The Moline merchants have come to
the conclusion that both systems are
here to STAY and that there is no use
trying to do away with either one.
Each will have its friends and enemies
and there is no use trying to bring
about an agreement to use anly one.
1t is conceded that this sort of thing
would not be wise, for the beneficial
effect of competition in the business
is manifested by more prompt and
satisfactory service and anything
that would tend to bring about a re-
turn of monopolistic conditions would
in all probability lead to revival of
/ former troubles.
