TO ORGANIZE
TELEPHONE COMPANY

Raymer has al last awakened To
the fact that we are sadly benind
the times on telephone matters and
the matter was taken up at the Com
mercial Club meeting week ago
Monday and Louis Allen, II. l.. Rob
inson and ]. X. Norwood were ap-
pointed as a committee to get infor-
nation and report.
Contrary to the course OF the usual
committee action, these gentlemen
acted as II the Club would expect
them TO do something, and at the
meeting held last Monday evening.
they were ready to present stock
subscription list Of over forty names
and good prospects for numerous ad-
itions as soon as the application
could be circulated,
Such action rather took the breath
OF the Club. but they recovered suf-
ficiently to welcome the vigor of the
committee and suggestion was made
that the subscribers organize at once
for the purpose of pushing the good
work along.
h. Nj. Frantz was selected as tenn
porary chairman and The Enterprise
man as temporary Secretary
Another meeting will be held at
NJ. W, Baileys hall tomorrow after
noon TO take further action.
1t is probable that the stockhold-
ers will form corporation for not
less than S5,000.O0 and get busy at
once to cover the country with tele-
phones. 1t is certainly needed and
a move that has too long been neg
lected.
Weewish that it were possible to
report the same uhanimity about
the lighting proposition, but so tar
there does not appear to be the best
chance in the world for the minds
OF the people to get into one channel.
Another meeting of the Club will
be held next Monday evening, it be-
Ing the regular meeting date. rhe
last two meetings were special called

After all, while We deploref the

at just the wrong time and we make

one and nerves are little too tense

it's only a cloud which a little com
