Long Controversy Between Staun-

PREsCRlBEs ANNUAL CHARGE
Order Directs Physical Connection Of
County and City Exchanges and
Requires l.rSt-Namcd to Pay SD

The state Corporation Commission.
In an opinion handed down by Judge
Frcnus. yesterday ordered the Chcs-
apeake and Potomac Telephone Com
pany OF Virginia and the Augusta
County Farmers Mutual Tclephone
Company forthwith to connect their
telephone exchanges with each other
for the Interchange of messages be-
tween their subscribers. provided tho
petitioner for connection. the Augusta,
County Farmers Mutual Telephone
Company indicates It's desire to do
SO upon terms fixed by the commission.
These terms are that 1.-THE Augusta
County Farmers Mutual Telephone
Company shall pay to the Chesapeake
and Potomac Telephone Company OF
Virginia the sum OF Sc per nnnum for
each and every one OF the telephones
on It's lines thus connected. payable in
advance In semiannual iinstallments.

opinion. asscntcd to the commissions
Judgment on the principle of public
welfare involved. but thought that the
charge OF So Il year for each telephone
was too steep.
This sum-" he says, lis. In my judE-
ment. excessive. There should be reel
procity between the two exchanges. and
a fair division OF the costs OF the joint
service should he apportioncd accord
ing 20 the revenue collected from sub
scrihers. respectively. by said two
companies"
Relations between the county COM
pany, which was organized during the
latter part Of last year. and the Ches-
apeake and Potomac Telephone Com
pany of Virginia. operating in the city
OF Staunton. were severed early this
year. leaving the subscribers of the
county company no connection with
the city telephones or with the private
lines in Augusta County. For many
years farmers in the county built their
own lines, installed their own tele-
phones and had them connected with
the city lines at the corporate limits
OF stanton.
Dissatisfied with the service obtain
ed in this way, they organized last
year the Augusta County Farmers Mu-
tual Telephone Company and cstablis h-
ed their switchboard just outside OF
stanton. Thirteen other private lines,
which formerly were connected with
the city switchboard. paying So n year
for tho service, soon were connected
with the switchboard of the new con-
corn. The city company objected and
severed relations. Whercupon, the
county company brought It's troubles
before the state Corporation Commits
sion. suing for an enforced physical
connection between the two boards.
