Present Telephone Rates
Enjoined by the Federal
Court

The enforcement of existing telephone
rates in Minnesota have been enjoined by
the Federal Court.
Had the present rates been continued
in Minnesota this Company would sustain
loss of approximately 100000 this year.
The stockholders would have to suffer this
loss and in addition nothing would be earned
to pay them dividends on their investment.
The Court in this case has granted par
tial relief because of the great need OF the
company and has not attempted to deter
mine the amount required to give us fair
return on the value of our property. This
amount will be determined when the case is
finally disposed of. ..-...
It should be borne in mind that the
company cannot meet the requirements Of
the public for service and make the neces-
sary extensions to it's property unless 1t is
able to pay all expenses and fair return up
on the money invested in the business
For extensions and betterments to our
property in this state we must expend APP
proximately 100000 each year and this
money can only be secured from people who
must be pursuaded to invest it in our bust
ness by the offer to them of a fair return on
their money
For the present no change will be.
made in the local rates at this exchange.

Dear X. C. B.: Seven years ago . man

Assuming that there is some justification for

Since then, have come back. And now, in
a most singular manner, fate has placed this
mans entire future in my hands. have the
power to humiliate him, to bring him to his
knees, and I still forbear.
The unemployment of the power I hold
will leave this man unaware Of my possess
sion of it, rendering the "coals Of fire" theory
ineffective, while leaving him still free to pur-
sue his constant attitude of irritating SUPER
ciliousness and open insult.
! am conversant with the Biblical theory,
seventy times seven," and the divinity of
forgiveness, as well as the unmitigating EYE

power / will remain well within the limits of
legitimate-as distinguished from the moral
principles Of mere business.
Don't tell me, X. C. B., Of the suffering of
his innocent children, as the monetary aspect
is incidental; besides, he is unmarried. am
constrained to-and yet, and yeti await
your reply. A CHRISTIAN-I hope.
