My DEAR SIR:-I waited one week
to see II some one OF the many that
voted as l did In our telephone meet
ing, would not reply to Mr.. Parks
great lamentations about how the
company did such a grievlous wrong
In voting to make every one that
paid the same money to have the
same privilege with no special
privilege to anybody without their
paying we'll for It, which advocated
and still think 1t is right. But Mr.,
Park says 1t In all probability will be
righted. He says a few people
around Virginia bought extra wire
to their places OF business and also
their homes and also paid for extra
drops on the switchboard, which
suppose they did. Well, II they want.
ed these things and had the money
80 pay for them, | guess there was
no objection to their having them.
| suppose they did not want to be
bothered by hearing their bell ring.
Ing all OF the time, and II they had a
special wire that would cut that out,
and now the question Is, do we owe
the fellows anything for buying some
thing they wanted for their own spe
cial benefit? II we do, ] will Illustrate
1t In this way. Uncle Wash has q

one, and, OF course, / buy her. Well,
she Is all o. K, and | am we'll salts

on Its poor rule that won't work
both ways. II We owe those parties
something for buying something
that they wanted, will go back to
Cncle Wash and ask him for a pair
Of those fine Duroc hogs and nice
SOW and pigs on the side, and, Of
course, according to his argument, he
will be obliged to give them to me
Now, in conclusion il we could rent
two or three parties that actually
needs phone in their dwellings and
in their stores for a nominal sum,
one OF those shares that are not sold
until such time as we could sell them,
| would be In favor OF 1t, but conces.
