FARMERS HELLO
REACHES OUT
Northwestern Telephone Co.
Prepared to Extend It's
Equipment.
Especial to Lake County Times).


St. John. March 5.-The election of
the officers of the Northwestern Te1e-
phone company here yesterday after
noon after an adjourned meeting of
last Saturday marks the beginning Of
the third year of that company's exist
ence. AS the telephone company is or
ganized solely of stock owners who
are mainly farmers in Lake county,
the marked success that this enterpris-
ing company has attained during its
two short years of existence has caused
much favorable comment, especially in
the central and southern part of the
county where the company has its best
field at the present time.
So unostentatiously was the COM
pany organized two years ago and so
rapid has been its progress that the
real significance of this undertaking 6
was not realized even by the stock
holders themselves. There are in the
neighborhood of two hundred OF them.
Couldn't Do without 1t.
To the Northwestern Telephone COM
pany may be given much credit for
counties of the state IN the matter Of
having its rural districts equipped with
this modern convenience. 1t is MOTH
ing unusual now to pass through the
farming district of central or south
ern Lake county and be enabled to
telephone from a farmhouse. The far
mer has realized the value of phone
in his house. One sick call alone pays
it's expenses. No more fast and furious
driving for him on a bad night through
rain and mud when some one in the
family is dying 1t is not necessary
for him auy more to load his grain and
take it to the market, and upon his
arrival there find that the price has
dropped.
When the Northwestern Telephone
comnanv was first incorporated on
March 3. two years ago, its capital
stock consisted of $4,000 Last Sat
urday this amount was raised to $25,-
600 In the first year only sixty tele-
phones were installed; there are now
over 22O. with so many orders for more
that it will be months before all can
be filled.
New Officers Elected.
Ar nresent the company's lines ex-
tend from Dyer, Schererville and st.
John to Lowell with the exchanges al
Lowell and at ST. John. It is the plan
of the organizers to sell the company $
stock wherever the line is extended.
The long distance connections ex-
tend throughout the west. wherever the
independent lines operate. 1t is now
the plan to build toward Crown Point
and thus reach the big lines eastward
As rho line was built from Lowell

In. until now the holdings are very well
divided. Consequently the election OF
directors and officers yesterday was q
spirited one. with the result that the
northern men were elected.

Indianapolis, March 5.-The Indian
apolis Star this morning prints the fol-
lowing:
Republican leaders in the house will
seek to prevent that body from passing
the Mccullough metropolitan police bill
over the governors veto-and it is re-
garded as certain in many quarters
that he will veto it.
Several of these leaders got together
at the Claypool Hotel last night and
talked the matter over. They will use
their influence to line the republican
side up for the governor. F'ifty-one
votes will be necessary to pass the bill
over the governors veto In the house.
The following representatives are
said to have attended the meeting at
the Claypool: Branch, Condo, Volz,
Daily, Grieger, Billingsley, Keller and
Kelley.
If Governor Hanly does veto the bill
an effort will certainly be made to pass
it over his veto. Representative McCul-
lough intimated as much last night
The bill takes the power to appoint
police commissioners in cities affected
by the present metropolitan law out Of
the hands of the governor and places
it with the mayors and common coun-
ellis.

Has Not Reached Governor.

Friends of the bill waited all day
yesterday for news of the bill believing
the governor had it under consideration.
but last night they discovered that
it was still in the engrossing room and
had not gone to the governor at ALL
Representative Mccullough applied the
big stick" and did some lively prod
ding, with the result that he exacted
promise from the engrossing force
to give it the right of way. The delay
in the engrossing room caused some
comment, from the fact that other
measures have gone through it with
a rush.
1t will require only seventy seven
votes to pass the bill over the COVER
nor's veto-fifty-one in the house and
twenty-six in the senate A good many
of the legislators were under the i'm
preston that a two-thirds majority was
necessary. On this subject the con-
stitution of the state is plain. 1t saws
in section IA Of article &: Every bill
which shall have passed the General
Assembly shall be presented to the gov
ernor; If he approves he shall sign it..
but If not he shall return 1t with his
objections, to the house, in which it
snail nave OElBludLGUs Wn1Cn mouse
shall enter the objections at large on
its journal and proceed to reconsider
the bill. If, after such reconsideration
majority OF all the members elected
to that house shall agree to pass the
bill. it shall be sent, with the governors
objections, to the other house. by which
1t shall likewise be considered and If
approved by a majority of all the mem
bers elected to that house, it shall be
a law"
Section IA further provides that mo
bill shall be presented to the governor
within two days next previous to the
final adjournment Of the General As
sembly." This latter provision has long
been disregarded and governors have
been known to receive bills on the last
day of the session.
