Su Thompson Keeping Close Eye Movements New Concern
Which Has Not Got ten business Permit

Manager Ward TX. Mills, of the wire-
less company, has invited the city eiec.
trician to inspect the working modei
Installed In the Richmond offices of the
corporation, but Mr.. Thompson has de-
clined the invitation.
Moreover, the city electrician says ne
is keeping a close watch on the move
ments of the company and Is prepared
to prevent the installation of any new
system in Richmond unless fran
chise Is first procured
1t Is also understood that the man
ayers OF the other telegraph and tele-
phone companies here will resist tins
new concern, as II is shown that high
power wireless stations established In
this vicinity would confuse and so seri-
ously impair the wire systems as &c
nut them out of business altogether.
The Richmond Virginian. (Richmond, Va.) 1910-1920, 1910-05-19

The City Council may be called upon
to enact special ordinance relative
to wireless companies at Its next
meeting, and much interest has been
aroused over the matter, inasmuch as
the Continental Wireless Telephone and
Telegraph Company has recently open
ed Offices here. and, though possess
ing no franchise, has notified City Elec-
trician william II. Thompson of it's
intention to install high power wire-
less stations here.
All other telephone and telegraph
companies operating here are protect
ed by a regular franchise. but this new
corporation up to this time has made
no apparent move toward procuring a
similar privilege, intending. as far as
can be learned, to operate under a gem
eral commercial license

Autos Collide

An automobile owned by M. Fitz-
gerald and driven by Thomas Fitz-
gerald and one owned and driven by
Dr. w. F. Whyte, collided at the corn
er of Main and Fourth streets last
evening about 6 O'Clock. The ma
chimes were driven at a low speed
and it is said that no one was to
blame for the accident and that the
collision was caused by the wet and
slippery condition of the brick pave
ment. William Fitzgerald, the eight
year old son of Mr.. and Mrs. M. Fitz-
gerald, was in the car at the time of
the accident and was thrown from the
car to the brick pavement, sustaining
a broken arm. DR.. G. j. Habhegger
was called this morning and set the
fracture. The damage to the cars
was of no consequence.

primary election:
Father What is faction?"
cit is a bunch Of men who want what
another bunch don't want"
Are Republicans faction?"
mo, they make up party. Stalwarts
and Half Breeds are factions"
"But Stalwarts and Half Breeds are
Republicans, aren't they?'
eyes p
But if they are Republicans how can
they be factions?"
"Well, my son, that is just what I
would like to know myself"
Father, are you Stalwart or Half
Breed?"
Neither. am Republican"
Then you don't want what the other
bunch want?"
Eyes mean No Say Son / its time
for you to 60 to bed.'
And as the little fellow trudged away
the father heaved long sigh and grew
thoughtful.
