PROTECTED AGAINST SERVICE.
Says Telephone Line to Island in Lake
Champlain Not Kept Good.

Burlington, Feb. 26--Hearing was haG
Yesterday before the Vermont public
service commission in the matter of tho
petition of DR.. Fl. Nelson Jackson vs. th'
Central Telephone company and the New
England Telegraph and Telephone com
pany, at Hotel Vermont parlors.
The petition was brought by the plain
tiff because of alleged unsatisfactory
service OF the Central Telephone COM
pany's line erected across Lake Cham
plain from Grand Isle to Providence is
/ land. DIR. Jackson's summer home.
DIR. Jackson was the principal witness
for plaintiff He told of a contract signed
by him in 1913 with the telephone com
pany in which they agreed to build a
cable from Grand Isle to Providence is
land, DR.. Jackson to pay for the con-
struction expense and S4 per year per
mile for upkeep OF the line, besides $50
a year for service which was guaranteed
to be satisfactory. The expense of con-
structing the cable which was paid by
plaintiff was $2097S besides a subsequent
charge TO lay line from DIR. Jackson's
summer home on the island TO the care
takers house at the south end of the
island, a distance of three -fourths of a
mile.
Dr. Jackson testified that the service
was never satisfactory entirely and much
of the time was completely out of CON-
mission, The telephone company finally
raised the rates for service and repudi-
ated any obligation in keeping the ca
bic in repair, said DIR. jackson. Bills
were paid the company under protest and
the matter was placed before the public
service commission in January last. DR..
Jackson stated that the line across to
Providence island had been out of serv-
ice since December.
Mrs. Jackson also testified as to the
poor service on the line.
C. H. Weed, superintendent for the
Central Telephone company and G. s.
Ovitt of Enosburg Fall, general manager
for the company, testified that the con-
tract between the company and DR.. Jack
son was lost soon after il was signed
and it had never been found. Other
witnesses for the defense testified as to
building the line and subsequent develop
ments. The service was not satisfactory,
it was stated because the submarine
cable was near iron deposits at the bot
tom of the lake between Providence is
and and the shore The company could
not assume the responsibility for that
part of the line which DR.. Jackson owned,
but promised him to assist in its mainte-
nance.
DIR. Jackson was represented at the
nearing by his brother S. HOLSTER Jack
son of Barre. The telephone company's
interests were in the hands of Mr.. Nc
Feeters of Enosburg Falls.

Removing a "Cesspool."

Editor, Times: When cesspool is dis

lists quickly invoke the state laws and
