TELEPHONE COMPANY
AND CITY At OUTS
Independent Phone Believes
That Additional Burden Is
Imposed Upon 1t.

There Is en- interesting contest now on
between the Independent Telephone com
pany and the City Council Some time
ago the Supervisor OF Streets reported
that the company had erected 1900 poles
in the city without applying for permits.
and the Supervisor WAS instructed to look
into tho matter.
Mr.. Jones Before Committee.
Thursday evening Elmer b. Jones,
managing director and attorney for the
company appeared before the Committee
on Improvements for the purpose OF en-
tightening the members regarding the
matter. MIR Jones set out that the com
pany had only erected 1854 poles and that
II had secured permits and paid 81 each
Tor erecting go OF the number under pro-
test.
Contention of Telephone Company.
MIR Jones further contended that the
Council should not compel his company
to pay the 81 per pole. upon the ground
that when the franchise WAS granted the
company was given permission 10 con-
Struct u telephone exchange In the CITY,
which carried with 1t the permission TO
erect the necessary poles. and that, In
return for the franchise, the company
agreed 10 give the city htty-lour teie-
phones and pay one per cent of It's gross
earnings into the city treasury
In tho same connection Mr. Jones
pointed out that the ordinance requiring
the payment of 81 per pole was passed
after the franchise was granted and that
IL was In the nature OF an additional
burden which his company should not
be compelled to assume.
Took Fall Out Morris Administration.
1t was explained to Mr.. Jones that the
ordinance was passed for the purpose OF
protecting the city and that the 81 fee
was the exact cost Of the engineering
work. And II was right here that Mr..
Jones took an unconscious fall out OF the
Morris administration. Why said he,
as for that matter, the former city En-
gineer never set any OF these poles. We
told him where we wanted TO put them
and he said go ahead
Referred to City Attorney.
AIR Jones also read a communication
from City Attorney Dey TO the former
Council In which the former City Attor-
ncy stated that 1t appeared to him that
the contention OF the company was both
reasonable and equitable The members
of the committee were plainly against Mr..
Jones, but IL was finally decided TO refer
the matter TO the City Attorney for
report as TO what power the Council had
