o OUR PATRONS:

~ OOK IA lNOINNo.
The publication of our annual statement last
week may have been a surprise TO many, yet
doubt if a surprise to those who in business and
have kept informed Of the increasing cost of
everything.
However the statement being mere statement
Of facts and figures we realize is not sufficient to
prepare ones mind for what appears inevitable: that
is substantial increase III our prices i'll order to
keep the business going.
No merchant can afford to sell permanently for
less than what the goods cost him Yet sometimes
through improper accounting merchants may do 50
for a time; but, unless corrected, the practice ends
in his ruin. The same economic law applies to the
telephone any other business,
We had intended publishing our annual state
ment first memorandum to the public to be fol-
lowed later by letters and statements bulletins of
information tending to give our customers better
understanding of our business and the interdepend
emf relations between not only telephone companies
and their patrons but between parties to all business
transactions.
While the publication of annual statement
was a voluntary matter part, enactment of
the legislature last year made such publications
hereafter obligatory upon the part Of all public serv
ice corporations: indicating that the legislature or
men III public places, have realized that there has
been i'll times past lack OF proper understanding,
and sometimes lack Of harmony, between patrons
and companies, due more to lack OF proper lntor-
nation than anything else.
This lack of information and facts has been the
cause of altogether much preconceived prejudice
and bitter controversy previous to bringing matters
before the proper public authorities for adjustment.
1t is the purpose of this and succeeding letters
our patrons to give our customers the facts as see
them; so that when the inevitable time comes for
reaiustment of our prices, all matters be taken
up in a spirit Of fairness and justice to all concerned
We will try to give available facts relative to
what has been decided in other localities comparable
with Mineral Point and also some of The reasons
underlying any decisions,
We will also endeavor to give expressions of our
aims and purposes and get suggestions that will help
in the proper cooperation between patrons and ele
phone employees. In the meantime, and i'll fact at
any time Hereafter shall be pleased to receive
communications from customers, giving
structve criticism suggestions which will tend to
improve our service or public relations.

The friends of Albert M. Ames of
Stockton Springs, cand date for senator
from Waldo county in the coming pri-
maries, have called his attention to an
item in the last issue of The journal
which to them carries the implication
that he has made or sanctioned false
statements regarding the length of serv-
ice in the Maine Legislature of his oppo-
nent, Senator Clement of Montville. Mr..
Ames authorizes the statement that he
freely admits having said that Senator
Clement has served three terms in the
Legislature, two in the House and one in
the Senate; and so far as his knowledge
extends no person has ever received
preferrment for greater length of service
from Waldo county, indicating that it is
against the policy of the voters of this
county to bestow such honors for any
longer period.
