Across the fields the shadows
Come creeping one by one;
Beyond the western meadows
Now sinks the golden sun.
A gentle breeze is signing,
Among the tree tops near
A cat birds plaintive crying
The listener may hear.
The sun is lower sinking,
Still denser shadows fall,
Save where the stars are blinking
Soon night envelops all.

Telephones and Competition.

Telephones and Competition.
Every community which has tele-
phone service is likely to be con-
fronted by the question of granting a
franchise to rival company. Each
case must be decided by the govern
Ing circumstances, but every case will
show the popularity of the telephone
problem. The telephone is a natural
monopoly, for it is to the advantage
of every subscriber that all users Of
telephones should be on the same sys-
tenn with him. More than one system
means that subscriber must have
more than one instrument, or be out
of communication with part of the
world of telephone-users. It is diff
cult, however, to adjust human nature
to ideal mechanical conditions. Estab-
1ished companies, without rivals, lack
the motive of competition to keep
rates down and service good. There
fore some communities have welcomed
new companies which promised better
and cheaper service. Dual systems,
like labor strikes, are on their face
economic losses, yet it may be worth
while to endure the temporary dis
comfort and loss in order to secure
better conditions ultimately. The
butcher may be on one system and
the baker on another, yet low rates
may bring two instruments within the
previous cost of one, and may so in
crease the number of subscribers
within call as to atone for the incon-
venience. If finally one company alb
serbs the other, the community may
have become so we'll established in
low rates that the surviving company
dare not raise them. On the other
hand says the Youths Companion, the
effect of competing companies is
sometimes merely to divide the tele-
phone-users of community without
adding many to the total number, and
If the companies then make an agree
ment to keep rates up, the community
is worse off than before. In the
strategical game which a community
plays with public service companies.
1t Is difficult to determine in the case
OF the telephone service how far the
actual or threatened establishment Of
a rival company stimulates mechani-
cal Improvement and checks the ma
tural tendency of monopoly to extor-
ton. No community can settle the
question without careful study.
