Dubuque Times Journal; This is
one result of the absorption of the
Bell Telephone company and the West.
ern Union Telegraph company by the
American Telegraph and Telephone
company.
Under the new arrang cement, if a
farmer whose home is equipped with
Bell telephone wishes to send tele,
graphic dispatch at night after the
telegraph Office in the neighboring
town has closed, he calls up the cen.
tral station and communicates his de.
sire. The central operator connects
the farmer with the night Office in
whose zone he lives, the farmer tele-
phones his message and it is then
transmitted by telegraph in the usual
way. The tolls are charged to the
farmer with his telephone bill.
In the same way incoming messages
OF Importance are delivered. The night
Office uses the telephone for deliver.

mediate advantages TO the companies,
in addition to the advantages con
ferred on the patrons who. under the
new arrangement. will be able to re.
ceive and send important messages,
where formerly it would have been
costly, IL not impossible These two
advantages are that it saves the es.
tablishment of large number Of
night telegraph Offices, and that It
places premium on Bell phones as
against independent phones.
In the larger cities the Western
Union and Bell companies have for
some time had in effect an arrange
ment by which any Bell telephone
subscriber could file telegraph mes
sage by calling up the Western Union
Office In his city, phoning the message
and having the same charged to his
account. The effect OF the new service
is to extend this to the small towns
and rural communities.

WILL PRESENT
AUTOMOBILE BILL
Decided Reform is Proposed by Rep
resentative Moore at Mex.
State Legislature.

Ernest r. Moore, of Cedar Rapids,
representative from Linn County. con
templates introducing in the general
assembly early in the session bill
providing for decided reform in the
regulation Of automobiles and their
operators. The measure he has under
consideration will provide for tax
on every machine according to its
horse power. This tax is to be paid
/ to the state auditor and the money
thus collected reapportioned to road
districts for the improvement and
maintenance of good roads, with
premium provision for such counties
as build a permanent road and main
tain it,
Another section of the bill will
provide for the examination, licens-
ing and taxing of every person who
operates an automobile. 1t is believ-
ed that by throwing this safeguard
about the persons who run machines,
reckless drivers can be eliminated and
many of the present accidents and
deaths as result of autos reduced in
this state. A great many states have
passed laws licensing chauffeurs and
it is urged by automobile people that
hundreds of the disqualified drivers,
thrown out OF employment in other
states have come to Iowa and secur-
ed employment.
Another strict provision of the bill
will be to make 1t felony, punish
able by Imprisonment. for any person
who runs down another and does not
stop to look after the injured person.

uent, overlooking the fact that his shirt
front was covered with blood, big wen
IKE bruise was protruding above his right
eye While numerous abrasions about his
face indicated that he had been having a
serious time His impatient replies to ques-
tons concerning the validity OF the check

police department, and Mr. Daley was es-
corted to headquarters by an officer.
There he completed his narrative and
told how he was slugged and robbed by two
Omaha crooks, who had followed him to
the Iowa side of the river, knocked him
senseless by blow with bludgeon, robbed
him Of all the money he haze, amounting to
Sl7. and left him lying in the willows The
attack was made Wednesday evening after
DALEY had visited many Of the Omaha
saloons and accepted the advice Of two
new friends to walk across the bridge in
stead of taking a street car
A telephone query to the Bank OF Percival
proved that the check was good and that
DALEY had $3.50 on deposit there. Reference
to the police court books showed that
Daley owed 50 on a fine imposed in police
court some time ago for intoxicatlon. The
check was excepted and DALEY was given
