The Modern Way is to Long Distance Telephone

The Long Distance Bell Tel
ephone is playing an important
part in revolutionizing modern
business methods. 1t is used con-
stantly between near and distant
points for business and social pur-
poses, and the Bell System is so
extensive and so well maintained
that a business transaction by
Long Distance Telephone is
cheaper, more satisfactory and is
accomplished in less time than by
any other method. The Bell
system reaches all important points
in Alabama, and the south and
throughout the country. Modem
business men. as rule, are inter-
ested more in results than in the
means by which they are secured.
When a business man in Mont
gomey tells Long Distance"
that he wishes to speak to a par
ticular party in New York he
assumes, as a matter Of course.
and very rightly, that the party
will be on the line in a very short
while.
This accomplishment. however
simple it may appear, involves a
large force Of efficient employees
and utilizes an enormous equip
ment investment. 1t is only pos
sible through the organization Of
the Bell system working in abso-
lutte harmony, to furnish a com
prehensive telephone service.
Each Bell Telephone, whether
in office or residence. is part Of
this system. and any Bell Tele-
phone subscriber can sit in his
home or office and talk to party
at Bell Telephone in any city
far or near. This is a conven-
fence which no other agency
affords.
The points shown on the ac-
companying map are only few
Of those in constant telephone
communication with Montgome-
ny. The rates are for a three
minute talk. There is a charge
for each additional minute, and
all rates are subject to change
without notice. To secure other
rates. call 81 onp Distance

Followed bv DISCLOSURE Of De-
partment's Secret Plans.

Reno, New, Oct 13.-That the
department of the interior is soon to
open the Pyramid Indian reservation
for settlement, and is also planning
an immense reclamation project, u.s.
ing Pyramid lake as a reservoir for

ment agent at the Indian reserva-
tion This informant stated that a
large dam, many canals and many ir-
rigation bitches are planned by the
government at an immense cost.

part arid, but will become very fer

vation Immensely rich mineral
belts are prominent throughout the

GOMPERS STANDS
FOR FREE SPEECH
Defer ANY Power to Check It. and
Refuses to March With CON-
:. pany of Militia.

Washington, Oct. 13.-Defiance of
curtai his right of free speech or the
freedom of the press was expressed
here last night by Samuel Gompers,
president of the American Fedora
tion of Labor
Mr.. Gompers' address was the eli
max of demonstration arranged by
organized labor in honor of his re-
turn from Europe. The meeting was
preceded by street parade in which
union men from many parts of this
country, Canada and Cuba partici-
pated.
Mr.. Gompers refused to allow a
company of the national guard of
the District of Columbia to take
part. The Central Labor Union, at
a meeting the night previous, went
on record in favor of the guardsmen
marching in line, although there was
some opposition on the part of the
delegates. who said that organized
militia of the country was used only
to ''shoot down strikers and union
men,
The opponents of the idea COM
municated with Mr.. Gompers today
and he promptly decided the guard
should not parade.
Referring to the Jail sentence rest
ing against him on charge of con-
tempt of court for referring to the
Buck Stove & Range Company, after
being enjoined against such action
by the Supreme Court of the District
of Columbia. Mr.. Gompers declared
Justice Wright had decided the con-
tempt case against him because he
was prejudiced against men that
work
Expressing his regret for courts
in general, Mr. GOmpers said:

tegrity, no matter what their de-
cision may be. But know that they

likely to err as any other man on
earth.
Il have no hesitancy in saying
that not only did Justice Wright err,
but that he was prejudiced against
the men of labor. | do not want to
be hero or nearly hero. | have
no desire to be bombastic or defiant
but say advisedly and with a know
ledge of the full responsibility that
attaches to my words that | believe
no imposition of lighter sentence
will alter the case one jot.
Mr.. Gompers denied the right of
any court to enjoin him in advance
from expressing his views, although
after he had spoken he realized that
he might be tried for what he had
said. If the court of appeals should
decide against him, he declared. the
fight for free speech must go on un-
til that right was achieved.

said, "and we do not want to stop.
We have gone too far in the march of
human progress to be driven back
into slavery"
