When an electric current is sent into
them these wires that are assembled
to form the cables behave very differ
emily from the open wires. To under
stand this difference in behavior 1t Is
necessary to use two technical terms
Resistance and electrostatic capacity.
If YOU want to know exactly what
these mean look them up in an cleo
trical handbook; there is no space to
explain them here; suffice it to say
that resistance Is measured in ohms
and electrostatic capacity in microfar-
ads.
Now. every electrical circuit has
both resistance and eiectrostatlc
capacity. If we could eliminate
either one of these long distance tele-
phony would now be ancient history
But they both are present stimuli
taneously, combined and distributed
along the whole line. We say that
certain telephone circuit has so many
ohms resistance and so many NIL
crofarads capacity per mile. 1t Is
Just here that the difficulty of tele-
phoning to long distance arises. For
although these forces are uniformly
distributed over the wire forming a
circuit, the difficulty increases not In
numerical proportion to the length Oh
the wire, but in geometrical proper
ton. For example, this difficulty may
| be four times as great in one wire as
| in one of half its length.
Imagine two telephone circuits ex-
actIy the same length, made or the
same kind and size of wire, but one Oh
them open" the other inelosed In
! cable laid underground; the resistance
of one Is exactly the same as that OF
the other, but the electrostatlc capic-
itv of the wire in the cable is much
greater than that of the open Wlre'
perhaps ten times as great. Yet the
wires are exactly the same. To what
then. is the difference due? It is the
insulating material around the cable
wire that so greatly increases its
electrostatic capacity. To give gen
eral idea of the amount of this differ-
ence it may be said that the efficiency
of a mile of standard cable wire circuit
is equal to the efficiency of ii miles
of standard open overhead wire line.
Il is this fact that makes $40 miles the
limit within which it is possible to
telephone satisfactorily over cable,
while with open wires it is easy to
telephone up to 400 miles. and up to
1000 miles with heavy wire and the
addition of certain intensifying instru-
ments.
Experiments with open wires have
established the possibility of telephon-
ing up to 1000 miles, but it is still
doubtful if a commercial service could
be made profitable at such distance
for it is necessary to use wire four
times as heavy-wire weighing SIo
pounds per loop mile, for example
and to add many loading coils to it;
these latter being expensive to install
and to maintain. Moreover. these ex-
periments are possible only by the use
of what electricians call phantom
circuit" that is to say. third circuit
made out of two complete circuits. In
other words, two lines flour wires)
must be used to do the work of one
! line 1.-TWO wires).
Thirty miles is the present limit OF
telephoning over a submarine cable,

SUFFRAGE PLAN
Women Figure On Complete Organ
ization oil Counties.

Pierre, June 17.-Complete organ
ization by counties is the present
plan of the equal franchise organiza-
ton of this state for the campaign
for votes for women at the November
election. Mrs. C.. b. Billinghurst of
this city. has just returned from Alb
erdeen, where a county organization
for Brown county was formed. with
such ladies as Mrs. w. G.. Bickel-
haupt as president. with Mrs. C. n.
Herreid. Mrs. Charles A. Howard and
and Miss s. A. Frewins as other mem
.bers of the organization, which COM
mittee will have charge of the work
of securing votes in Brown county.
A like organization will be shaped up
in every county of the state and work
be pushed in the campaign from this
time on. Mrs. Billinghurst, who has
charge of the northeast district of
the state, reports that the organiZa-
tion work is under way in every
county in the district in which the
organizations have not already been
completed, and that il will not be
long until every county in the dis
trict is ready for organized action.
The leaders in the other districts are
active, and the campaign for votes
will be carried on through a perfect
ed political organization from the
state list down through the counties
and precincts.

Elk Point-The farmers along the
Sioux river on the Dakota and Iowa
sides from Hawarden to this point
are very much worried over the high
water proposition. So far about one
third of the valley on each side is
inundated. Charles Stickney has so
acres of corn submerged and l.. n.
Grill has so acres at Cribs mill. Joel
Weber, of Richland, worked with
teams and men Sunday building dikes
and levees and has thus far protect
ed his 400 acres of wheat and corn.
The river at this time is at a stand
still.
Pierre-Assessors now working on
the regular assessment have inquired
vi tue Tax GbiinltSSlOu whether OTul-
nary, mongrel curs shall be assessed
and taxed the same as fine, blooded
dogs. This involves the question as
to whether the law of the state and
decisions of the court hold dogs as
merely dogs" or as property" In
the latter even they would be taxed
according to their value in dollars.
The members of the tax commission
are of the opinion that the South Da-
kota supreme court has held that
dogs are property, and hat full valu-
alton will hold, but the matter will
be referred to the attorney general
for decision.
Faith-Fifty thousand pounds OF
alfalfa seed were shipped from Faith
last week and consigned to a seed
company at Mitchell. Twenty-one
four horse teams were required to
haul the seed to Faith and the seed
nets the raisers IL cents a pound or
$7.20 a bushel. There is a good profit
to farmers in this section of the state
in raising alfalfa for seed. Mr.. Har-
locker of Red Owl made SIS an acre
from his alfalfa, in seed and hay, last
year. Dry land alfalfa SEED is in
great demand over the United States,
and Faith promises to become the
center of a very profitable industry.
