BOYD MAKES STATEMENT.
OF MATERIAL HAS MADE NEG
EssARY AN ADVANCE IN THE
CHARGES.

Cambridge City, Ind, Aug. 19.-As
result of the increased rental fee
from s12 to SIS recently declared by
the Citizens Telephone company on
the party lines branching out from the
home office in this city and the Ha-
gerstown office. number of their pa
irons have protested. j. A. Boyd,
president of the telephone company
stated yesterday that in view of the
fact that material and labor has in
creased almost two fold in the past
year, it was necessary to raise the
box rent in order to place the system
on a paying basis and that heretofore
the party lines have been operated at
an actual loss rather than at a profit
After comforting with manager Byron
Stratton he made the proposition to
the patrons on these lines that he
either present them with the entire
equipment and they pay an exchange
fee OF % cents per month, to this of
flee and keep the lines in repair
themselves or else agree to pay the
on each month rentals as has been
stated before
AT present it requires the constant
attention of the entire construction
crew to repair damaged party lines
which entails a heavy expense. and
in this manner all profits from the
city telephone system are absorbed by
the constant expenses of maintaining
outside lines. The work of re-
pairing damage done by severe electri-
cal storms which passed over the
southern part of the county about a
month ago, was completed last Satur-
day at an expense of almost $1,000
Mr.. Boyd states further that almost
one half of his patrons in the rura,
districts have expressed their desire
to retain the telephones under the
first named condition and that if they
reach this decision. the lines will pro-
badly be operated on the same plan
as the cooperative systems through
out the state.

There Is Probability That City
Council Will Pass Ordinance
To Free Main Street, East,
Of Traction Cars.
MOVE is NECESSARY.
MANY MEMBERS THINK.
Meant as a Club to Compel
The Company to Accept the
Terms of the Franchise Re-
Gently Submitted.

This evening at the council meeting
an ordinance which win, I'm the event
il lis adopted, prohibit the operation
of interurban passenger cars on Main
street from Eighth street east 20 the
east corporation line. This ordinance
was recommended by City Attorney
r. J. Study at the last council meeting
and he was ordered by council to
draw up such an ordinance. II is
known that council favors such radi-
cal action as ii is believed this course
is now necessary to force the traction
interests to accept the terms of the
up and submitted by the board OF pub
lie works to the traction officials.
BY Tuesday morning IL is quite
probable that no Dayton and Western
traction cars or Terre Haute. Indiana
polls and Eastern limited cars will be
operated within the Richmond city
limits, as IL is understood that council
will tonight adopt the ordinance pre-
pared by Mr.. Study under suspension
of the rules. An emergency clause In
the ordinance will make 1t effective
as soon as passed.
Will he up TO Officials.
Just what action the traction on
cials will take i'm the event the or
dinance is passed will be awaited with
much interest by the city officials and
the general public, which almost unan-
imously supports the stand the city
officials have already taken ami ex-
pect to take against the traction COM
pany.
As there is absolutely no franchise
or agreement I'm existence which gives
the Dayton and Western traction COM
pany the right TO operate cars in this
city Mr.. Study is confident that I'm
case the traction company goes to the
courts in it's fight against this munich
pality the result will be complete
victory for the city. Mr.. Study has
been in no hurry i'm taking this dras-
tic step against the traction company
and he did not advise this course of
action until he had made "a thorough
investigation of the case and was con-
vinced that the city held all the trump
cards in its fight against the traction
interests.
Tonight council will probably take
final action in regard to paving Of ~.

The board of public works adopted
a resolution for this Improvement and
and all of the manufacturing interests

makes 1t necessary for the board to
refer the matter to council for final
action. The board regards the i'm
provement as necessary as the heavy
traffic on this street makes a bravel
