An Open Letter to the
Telephone Using Public

depends largely upon the utilities
that bring them in contact with
each other. and that the nea
ly perfect in efficiency and suf-
f~iciency the utilities serving the
public are, the more prosperity,
comforts and conveniences the pub
lie will enjoy.
We believe our story is am in
teresting one. and We hope that
everyone will read it.
NOTE-As an instance of the
kind of startling news which news
papers sometimes pulish, we want
to call attention to recent articles
in the newspapers headed, United
States Government Calls Upon Two
Girl Stenographers to Tell Where
They Got Two Million Dollars to
Form the Corporation Securities
and Investment Company" Then
the articles went on to say that
this Corporation Securities and In
vestment Company was a scheme of
the Telephone Company to further
its purpose of monopolizing tele-
phone companies, etc.
The truth is that our company
has been met with a strong feeling
in the State of Montana-well-nigh
uniyersaI-that something should
be done to relieve the citizens of
that state, of two telephone y 9
TENS. Public meetings have been
neld, and votes takenn that the
telephones of one or the other of
the systems should be thrown out.
Resolutions and letters have been
submitted to us, and we have start
ed out to see what we could do
to relieve the citizens of that state
of this burden.
We found that the Independent
interests operating there also op-
Grated in Spokane, in the State of
Washington, and in northern Idaho.
and that the Independent interests
doing business in Montana could
not be bought or sold. so as
TO alone cover the property in
Montana, but that the purchase
must include their property in the
states of Idaho and Washington.
The Mountain States Telephone and
Telegraph Company does not oper-
ate in either of these sections, and
therefore, is not responsible for
telephone conditions there, nor does
1t wish to operate there. but we
felt we must meet the situation in
montana, and so, in order to be in
d posltlon to either buy or sell,
from or to- the Independent
interests in Montana, there was
formed this Corporation Securities
and Investment Company. as a
corporate company to enter into
negotiations with the Independent
interests in Montana, which negoti-
atlons are now in progress, and =,
possible, to buy these -Independant

AMERICAN IDEALISM.

- 1t is q mistake to look
at these things with our usual
habits Of thought any more than
we ought to judge Americans by
comparing them with Europeans.
They pursue works Of intellect
with the same ardor, the same
force, that they apply to the
making of fortunes, and these
two quests are at the bottom
near neighbors. The American
does not love money, and when
he sets out to get it it is rather
from ambition than from base
cupidity. This temperament ex-
plains his taste for action as
well as his intellectual mod
esty. Yes, Americans are really
modest, and | do not know all
We owe them. You may be
sure they are the real idealists
Of our time. Look, for instance,
at the works of William James.

sity of Paris.

WASTE OF WAR.

l agree with you perfectly in
your disapprobation Of war. Alb
stracted from the inhumanity Of
1t, / think 1t wrong in point Of
human prudence, for whatever
advantage one nation would OBJ
tain from another, whether it be
part of their territory, the lib
erty of commerce with their free
passage on their rivers, ETC., it
would be much cheaper to pur-
chase such advantage with ready
money than to pay the expense
of acquiring 1t by war. An army
is a devouring monster, and
when you have raised 1t you
have, in order to subsist 1t, not
only the fair charges Of pay,
clothing, provisions, arms and
ammunition, with numberless
other contingent and just charges
to answer and satisfy, but you
have all the additional knavish
charges Of the numerous tribe
of contractors to defray, with
those of every dealer who fur
nishes the articles wanted for
your army and takes advantage
of that want to demand exorbi-
tant prices. 1t seems to me that
IL statesmen had a little more
arithmetic or were more accus-
toned to calculation wars would
be much less frequent.-BenJa-
min Franklin.
