Ing Its service to the old Somerset sub
scr1bers at the old rates NAV perhaps
readily be understood. but now that 1t
has been brought within the provisions
OF an act that forbids preferences and dis
crimina tons 1t is manifest that the de-
PENDANT cannot continue to demand OF
some residents of the district of Bethesda
more than II demands for the same serv-
ice rendered to Others similarly situated.
That its course Of dealing. as between the
old Somerset subscribers and the new
subscribers to the Cleveland exchange IN
the district OF Bethesda, has now become
unlawful under the act seems so clear Is
not even to admit of discussion.
Being a public servant, subject TO the
provisions of law that forbids undue
preferences and unjust Determinations on
any grounds whatsoever, 1t Is manifest
that nothing but difference in the serv-
will justify any difference in the charges
exacted, and that the defendants demand
upon the complainant for greater COM
pensatiOn for the same service and ia
cilities subjects him to a discrimination
that is undue and unjust.
1T is not altogether clear from the
records whether the contracts between
the thirty-seven old subscribers to the
Somerset exchange are living contracts
in the sense that they provide a term Of
years. not yet expired, during which the
subscribers were to be entitled to the old
rates in force at the Somerset exchange
when the contracts were executed. But
whatever may be the fact in that regard
the contracts. now that the Congress has
undertaken to regulate the rates and
practices of interstate telephone COM
panies, cannot justify a violation by the
defendant Of the provisions in the act
forbidding unjust preferences and undue
Determinations. This point was con-
clusively settled in Armour Packing Co
VS.. United States. 200 United States. S.
81, where the court points out that There
Is no provision excepting special con-
tracts from the operation Of the law One
rate Is to be charged, and that the one
fixed and published in the manner point

change in the only way open by the
statute"

Removed Its Exchange.

I'm consequence of the growth of the
Somerset exchange and Of the number of
residents in the District of Columbia that
were connected with 1t, the defendant
deemed it expedient in November. 1905, to
remove the exchange to a point in the
District of Columbia on the Tenleytown
road. Upon the completion OF the new
office. known as the Chevy Chase ex-
change, the Somerset Office was aban-
doned and the telephones Of all its sub
scribers were connected with the new
office. The installation of the new ex-
change was followed by some changes
IN tho charges for service. From the OLD
Somerset subscribers who were trans
ferred to the new exchange the defend
aut continued to exact the old Somerset
rates. 1t appears also that few new
contracts were made with new subscrib-
ers residing in the district Of Bethesda on
the basis of the rates formerly demanded
OF subscribers connected with the SOM
eTset exchange.
"All the old subscribers living in Mary
land, as we'll as those residing across the
line In the District. were still required to
pay the ten-cent toll on all messages to
subscribers in the District Of Columbia
not directly connected with the Chevy
charged on messages from the city of
Washington to subscribers connected with
the Chevy Chase exchange. In other
words. all the subse ribers to the old
Somerset exchange, including those re-
siding within the District Of Columbia.
besides getting the benefit without any
additional charge of the more extended
service offered by the Chevy Chase ex-
change. were also given the right to re-
ceive messages through other exchanges
in the city Of Washington free Of ton
charges. But, with the few exceptions
mentioned. all new subscribers to the
Chevy Chase exchange were required to
pay to the defendant the regular District
of Columbia rates. which are hereinafter
explained In detail.
1.-THE growth Of the new exchange at
Chevy Chase and other conditions tending
to economy and convenience in manage
ment led the defendant in juno, 1908. to
abandon that exchange also and to es-
tablish another exchange about half a
mile farther south in the city of wash
inston. This is called the Cleveland ex:
Somerset and Chevy Chase exchanges.
together with some 200 subscribers for
the West Washington exchange. were
transferred to this new exchange.

Wanted Old-Eorm Contract.

1T was after the installation of tho
new Cleveland exchange and after both
the Somerset and the Chevy Chase ex-
changes had been abandoned that the
complainant entered into negotiations
with the defendant for the installation Of
telephone in his residence at Drum
mond. Being a new subscriber, the de-
PENDANT demanded for the service the
District Of Columbia rates.
insisted on one in the form originally in
use when the Somerset exchange was in
operation. As a matter of fact it was
beyond the power OF the telephone COM
pany to enter into such an agreement Tor
the reason that it now has no exchange
at Somerset; nor can it offer the COM
plainant a contract in the form offered
to subscribers when the Chevy Chase ex-
change was in operation. Tor that ex-
change also has been abandoned: An the

connect It with the new Cleveland ex-

service the defendant demands the rates
current in the District Of Columbia and
now required by it of all new subscribers
to thes Cleveland exchange, whether re-
siding In the city OF washington or IN
the district of Bethesda The complain
ant on the other hand is willing to pay
for theservfce only on the basis OF the
original Somerset contracts. AS some
thirty.seven Of his immediate neighbors
are now getting the more extended serv-
ice through the Cleveland exchange on
the basis of their original Somerset con-
tracts, he demands the same serv ce on
the same terms, on the ground that he Is
g milarly situated; and he contends that
the refusal OF the defendant to give him
the service on that basis Is an undue and
unlawful discrimination against him.

PLAN PROPOSED TO
ATTRACT Immigrants
Land and Irrigation Exposition
Helpful

An excellent plan to advertise not
only this section but the entire state
has been proposed in a letter re-
ceived by Secretary Clarence J. White
of the Board of Trade from the Sec
tary of the United States Land and
( Irrigation Exposition, whose headquar-
ters are in Chicago.
The large exposition, which is to be
held in Chicago from November IS to
December 8 of this year, is planned
for the purpose of directing settlers
to the unoccupied lands of the South
and West. For this reason it will be
of the greatest value for Georgia to
be represented by the most excellent
and best assorted displays possible
when the exposition is held.
1t is with this nd in view that the
matter is called to the attention of
the people of Americus and vicinity
by Mr. White. 1t is hoped that the va
rious communities of Georgia which
are interested in the matter will unite
in securing as large a space as possi--
BILE in the big Coliseum building in
Chicago, where the exposition is TO
be held. 1t is only by the co-opera-
ton of a number of cities in the state
that the plan can be successfully car
ried through, under which conditions
it is believed that the cost to each city
would not be more than $500 for the
exhibit space while the total cost of
maintaining some one in charge of the
exhibit would probably not exceed
$500 or $1,000.
With the superb resources of Sum-
ter county as an agricultural com
munity, it is shown that unsurpassed
displays could readily be secured, and
that they would be of such a kind that
they could not fail to attract very wide
attention from all visitors to the ex-
position who are interested in settling
elsewhere
