Tom Purcell Here.

Tom Purcell of the Hampton
Chronicle was in the city Saturday
with his family enroute overland to
Ida Grove to attend the fiftieth we'd
ding anniversary of his parents and
made a brief call at the Freeman
Tribune Office. Tom IS running one
of the best weekly newspapers in
the state and it is said by members
of the craft who ought to know that
he makes more profit each year than
is made by any paper in Iowa in a
town of less than 5000 people. His
paper is filled every week with live
and he carries more
farm sale ads than any paper that
comes to our exchange table. They
are moving for the city manager
plan in Hampton and Mr.. Purcell
thinks it will be adopted there with
out much opposition. The people are
looking for the very best in city gov

Boone metropolitan How
long have we been hearing OF Il. II.
Martin Of Webster City as an in
ventor? That was one of the first
things that the present editor heard
when he entered the newspaper bus
mess in Boone. Now Mr.. Martin
seems to have invented something
that is going to make good. This is
nothing more or less than a meter
that will keep track Of the length OF
telephone conversation Simple. isn't
it? We have meters on everything
else, why not on conversation?
A large company called the Inter
national Telephone Meter Company,
with a capitalization of 100000
has secured the Des Moines Brewing
Company plant in Des Mcines and
will soon start on the manufacture
of these meters. When meter is
placed on telephone it will tell the
amount of use the telephone has had
during the month and the subscrib-
ers will pay accordingly.
Under this new dispensation OF
telephones we can readily see that
there will not be much free tele-
phoning. A subscriber would just
as we'll let a non-subscriber use his
electric lights or his gas stove as to
let him use his telephone under the
