How Opposition Telephone Com
panies Have Generally Been
Promoted.

The iayorite plan OF independent
or opposition telephone promoters,
after securing franchise in a city is
to incorporate with very large eapi.
tai and authorize the issuance OF
stock and bonds for the full amount.
Contracts are then made in each in
stance with construction company
(ot the same promoters) for a sum
far in excess OF the value OF the
plant By the offer OF large bonuses
for the sale OF bonds, some banks
have heretofore been induced to han
die their securities. and generally.
with the sale OF each bond, three.
quarters or one-half OF the value OF
the same in stock has been given
TO the purchaser without cost After
all OF the stocks and bonds have
been sold 10 the public and the
plant constructed, the promoter. after
having disposed Of his bonds, steps
out, and leaves the handling OF the
plant to the local purchasers, Through
out California, and the East there is
scarcely an instant where the prom
ises OF the promoters have been full
filed, and in almost evey case the
exchanges have ultimately found
themselves in serious financial diff.
hculty.

The Value OF a Telephone.

The value OF telephone depends
entirely upon the number OF subscrib-
ers TO be reached, In Portland the
Pacific Telephone & Telegraph Co.
has over 2l,0O0 telephones with 400
additional instruments shortly TO be
installed. The Automatic Home Co, is
said to have about onc.Quarter Of this
number. Therefore, a party in AS
toria calling for a party in Portland
over an Automatic Home Telephone
in ASTORIA would stand less than
one chance in four Of getting his
party. So there are other considera.
tons besides purely local coditions
TO think Of.

Things Telephone
Thoughtful Thinkers

were directors OF the opposition
Home Telephone Co in that city with
lines in five adjoining counties and
1900 telephones in operation. The
exchange closed business last month.
Here is what they say Wholly un-
like any other business in existence
there is THAT lNTERDEpEND-
ENCE OF all subscribers on each
other for a COMPLETE SERVICE,
which makes the maintenance and OPP
Grafton OF dual telephone systems
mos, undesirable. Having become
convinced tina, Il is our plain duty 10
the community and to ourselves to
withdraw from the business, we beg
to extend our thanks. etc, etc"

Would Not Be OF Real Value.

100000 for local Automatic
Home plant and 100000 for a long
distant line to Portland and still
some more before the first outlay
would be OF real value. 100000 has
always been considered a large sum
of money but at present it would be
harder to raise than would have been
$500,000 a year ago. However it may
be that some one has discovered that
money is easing up" in Astoria.
Perhaps it is the promoter.
