a Right of Way
T seems like pretty smooth sailing, when you get a clear
line and have a telephone talk with a party in another
city a thousand miles away.
You see nothing of the wonderful switchboards where
skillful operators handle your call and the lines are “hooked
un” to give your talk the right of way over two thousand
miles of copper wire, guarded every inch of the way from
all kinds of interference.
You scarcely realize that during every morment of your
thousand-mile telephone talk, telephone apparatus and plant
valued at from $150,000 to $200,0C0 are at your exclusive
service.
In the Bell Telephone system 26,000,000 connections
are made daily, giving clear tracks for the telephone talk of
the nation and requiring over one billion dollars’ worth of
telephone egquipment.

I hereby announce myself a candi
date for Alderman of the City ‘of ‘Cor
dele subject to the primary of Nov.
21st, and if elected 1 promise a faith
ful performance of the duties of the
office.
I believe there should be a just and
cquitable adjustment of the city’s busi
ness license. Under the present sys
‘em the small merchant and shdp men
are made to pay an unreasonable pro
rortion of the running expenses of
{lie city. Every merchant in the city
should be made to pay somewhat in
keeping with his volume of business.
I beiieve that the minimum water
rent should be reduced to an amount
cnly suflicient for the running expense
and upkeep of the plant.
he police department being one of
the most important of the city’s gov
ernment 1 believe it should be Kept
up io the highest standard of efficien
cv and that there should be ‘three
zhifts of patrolmen working 8 hours
cach. T helieve for the protection of
the city the office of desk sergeant
slhirmid be re-established.
| helieve the fire department should
ke Ipaintained at its present high
standard of efficiency.
T believe at the very earliegt pos
zible date the city should establish
Ind operate a sanaterium in keeping
with the development and neceds of
the city and surrounding territory.
I belicve in the observance of the
‘hristian Sabbath.
If vou believe in these principles
vote for me and T will appreciate your

RAILROADS WILL URGE
FEDERAL'REGULATION
Washington, Oct. 20.—Frank Thum
bull, chairman of the railway execu
tive advisory committee, announced
in an address before the American As
sociation of Passenger Traffic Officers
here that railway i nterests would
recommend centralization of interstate
railway regulation in the federal gov
ernment, and removal of many super
visory powers from states before the
congressional investigating committee
which will begin an exhaustive in
ouiry into railroad conditions next
month.
The railroads will advocate, Mr.
Trumbull said, federal incorporation
of interstate roads. reorganization of
the interstate commerce commission
along regional lines, with subordinate
district commissions, and regulation
of issuance of securities only by the
federal government. The proposed
organizaticn of the interstate com
merce commission would provide for
fuller consideration of local condi
tions, he explained.
