BAD TELEPHONE FINANCING.

The trouble some of the independ-
eent telephone companies are having
Just now seems to have arisen in
part from the fact that the COM
mUnities in which they operate
made the mistake of regarding
them not as business undertakings
but rather in the light of phllanth-
ROPES. In many cases dissatisfac-
tion with the existing service was
caused by the old fashioned system
of charges, which was established
before the pioneers in the business
really understood their own own
undertakings. AS the Bell manage
ment gradually puts into effect
throughout it's various branches the
message rate arrangement the chief
grievance of the past has disappear
ed. Meanwhile, however, the in
dependents, in their efforts to live
up to the promises by which they
got their privlleges-and in some
cases it has required compulsion to
make them even try to live up to
them have found financial disaster
staring them in the race, for the
telephone business like any other,
must be run on strictly sound
principles which allow of fair pro-
aits after the cost of good service
mas been met.
But it is difficult to make some
communities understand this, ap-
parently. In their first enthusiasm
the men who subscribe the capital
TO startia rival system believe them
selves shrewd as we'll as public
spirited. Unfortunately knowing
nothing about the telephone bust
ness themselves, they take the word
of some promoter for taeir shrewd-
mess. Then they are no better
satisfied than could be expected
when their investment turns out
not to be profitable, and when, if
they try to make both ends meet by
reducing expenses, there IS a'general
howl on account of the loss IN the
efficiency of their service which
anust inevitably result.
1T is all right to talk about help
ang along home enterprise" said a
man yesterday who comes from an
illinois town where they have just
been through a painful experience
with local telephone company that
started out in opposition to the Bell
company and came to grief because
neither its local nor long distance
service could be made satisfactory.
But the best way to help home en-
terprise is to put your money into
something that the town really
needs and not into duplicating
public service that has shown over
and over again that it can be given
Oest under single management.
That sort of home patriotism has
burned up lot of money that we
people of the west could have used
to good advantage in other things.
mo telephone is any good to any
body unless it can be connected
with every other telephone in the
town nor unless it can also be con-
nected with long distance lines that
go all over that proposition nova
days, and the result is, of course,
that the telephone service can
never be satisfactory when two or
more systems are operating side by
side. The advantage the Bell COM
panies have is, of course, their long
distance service which has taken a
quarter of a century to build up
and to duplicate which would re-
quire millions of capital and years
.Of waiting"

He Gives the Party Policy as III.

New York, April 14.-Seven hun
dred Democrats attended the Jefferson
day banquet of the Democratic club,
New York, at the WaldOrfAstoria
There were many there Of national
and chief among these was
Alton B. Parker, Democratic
for president last November.
In the banquet room portraits of JEFF
ferson were conspicuous. In addition
to Parker the speakers were United
States Senator Newlands, of Nevada;
Mayor Mcclellan, of New York; Rep
resentative Henry I. Rainey, of Illi-
rois, and J. ]. Willet, of Alabama.
Senator Carmack, of Tennessee, was
the only one of those expected to speak
who could not attend.
Parker Is the First Speaker.
Parker was the first speaker. and he
was enthusiastically received. Ere
Guently he was interrupted by APP
plause. The speech was on the future
of the Democratic party and was re-
plete with suggestions for harmony,
and urgent appeals against sectional
ism, In laying down a policy for the
party Judge Parker said: when an
alyZed, the Democratic party, in all its
past history, has been true to a few
general ideas and policies. They may
be enumerated as follows: A strict
of the constitution which
implies resistance to Capitalization by
the federal government because it is
opposed to the fundamental idea of our
system of popular government and for
the further reason that all human ex-
perience shows that that way danger
lies.
Tariff, Economy and Non-Interferenco.
'"The levy Of import duties and other
taxes with strict regard to the industri-
al interests of all our people whether
manufacturers, farmers or workmen,
and always at rates which, while just
to all, shall be essentially revenue-pro-
ducing, thus eliminating monopoly and
fayOritism. Constant, unremitting at
tention to honest, economical expend-
iture of the taxes collected from the
people; and non-interference in the po-
litical affairs Of other nations, thus
making entangling alliances as impos-
sible as they are undesirable and I'M

Quay's Fight for a Woman.

AS illustrating that the late Sena-

is told that he went up to the White
House one morning during President
McKinley's first administration, and
asked that a woman be appointed
postmistress at a small town in Mis-
sissippi, says the Philadelphia Record.
ASK me for anything in Pennsyl-
vania," said the president, and it is
yours. This place is promised and the
circumstances are peculiar. The two
factions OF the party in Mississippi
have agreed On the person who is to
have it. AS it is the first point on
which they have come together,
cannot set aside their wishes"
Before the war" said Quay, when
I was a young man, I taught school
for three years in Mississippi, 1 made
my home with the parents of this wo-
man, and they treated me as a mem
be of the family. They have been
unfortunate, and the daughter needs
this place. I hope, Mr.. President,
that your answer is not final"
The president shook his head.
81 regret it very much," he said
"but under the circumstances no 9TH
er answer is possible"
VERY WELL" said Quay, quietly, as
he turned to go. II hope when the
next republican convention is held,
MI. President, that the eighteen vot'
es from Mississippi will compensate
you for the sixty-four from Penn
~sylvania"."
"Have you got it so much at heart
as that, s~enator?" asked the presi,
dent.
II have" replied Quay. II have
tried to show you how much I have
it at heart"

Ross several blows in the face. Ross
is 2 good-natured man., and it is SAID
it takes a great deal to provocate
him. He became angry, however. at
the rough treatement Austin gave
him, and picked up a rake leaning
against the wall nearby.
Austin continued to abuse him, and
he struck him a blow over the head
with the rake. which will probably
prove fatal. At the time 1t was

skull was crushed.
.Austin's physicians decided that an
operation was necessary, and the op-
Grafton was successfully performed,
but the mans condition is extremely
grave. The skull was crushed in the
centre of the crown and the physi-
clans took from the brain several
pieces of crushed skull.
Ross regrets the occurrence very
much. and is doing all within his

1t is said that Austin was drinking
heavily Sunday, and that he was
doubtless lost to all reason when ne
attacked Ross.
Austin is a son of Col. Frank Aus
tin of Fork Shoals. He was at one
time a member of the police force.
