Telephone rates are entirely too
high In Chicago. The Aldermen have
a chance to lower them. Will they
do Il? ~
The penny telephone will come In
time. Lower rates on all phones are
demanded.
It is reported that the telephone
company has hit upon a new scheme
for the extraction OF the nimble nickel
from the clothes of customers.
The new scheme is called the
short ring"
Heretofore when a call was made
the telephone bells jingled a long
time or until they were answered.
Now, in some parts Of the city they
are barely tapped.
OF course IL the party called does
not hear the mild ring or takes the
sound for crossed wire," Or a mis-.
take" the caller has to try 1t over
again and drop another nickel.
This nickel movement is q great
thing.
In fact, In Chicago the telephone
has discovered the richest
