ORGANIZE MUTUAL
TELEPHONE CO.
At Large Meeting of Three Humid
red and Eleven Subscribers the
Payette Mutual Telephone Com
pany is orgsnized-Board Elected
and Will Get at Business I'M
medlsteIy.

Tuesday afternoon in pursuance to
the call large number of the stock
holders of the proposed mutual tele-
phone company met in the CONNER
oial Club rooms at Payette to organ
ize. 1t was probably the largest
crowd that has ever gathered in the
club rooms and the number of farm
ers taking an interest in the move
ment was encouraging, fully half
the gathering being farmers.
Reports of various committees
showed that there had been three
hundred and eleven subscribers who
had signed up for stock. This was
decided a sufficient number to start
with and the matter of organization
was taken up.
The name, Payette Mutual Tele-
phone Company Ltd, was adopted.
The company was capitalized at
100000.
The bylaws of the Fruitland Farm
ers' Mutual were practically adopted,
very few changes being made.
The annual meetings of the COM
pany will be held the second Mon
day in January at 10 o'clock a. m.
A board of nine directors were
elected, After discussion it was de-
cided to have three minute recess
and let the different sections caucus
and present nominations for two di-
rectors excepting Payette which sec
tion was allowed three directors or
one for each ward in the city.
After caucusing the meeting was
again called to order and the diff
ferent sections presented their can
didates for directors and the voting
elected the following.
For District north of Payette-H.

soC1 be rolling by the car load to
the eastern markets. Every packing
house in Payette is in shape to
handle the big crop and this year
the prunes are of decidedly good
quality. Some of the growers be-
gan picking the first of the week
and light forces are working in most
o. the packing houses but by the
latter part of the week the harvest
should be on in earnest and all
houses running full force.
