"HELLO" IIS

Did you ever stop to think about how
many miles of telephone wire was strung
through the streets of La Grande? Did
you ever try to make a guess as to . the
number of telephone calls which pass
through the local telephone office each
day?
The Observer reporter got to thinking
of these things the other day and called
Mr. G. C.Osburn, manager for Union and
Wallowa counties for the Pacific Tele
phone and Telegraph Company and re
ceived the following information:
Mr. Osbjrn's company has four hun
dred and sixty miles of wire within the
city limits. Of this amount three hundred
miles are copper wire placed in cables.
The local exchange consists of seven
hundred and seventy members and the
exchange with the long distance business
keeps eight girls actively engaged. We
say actively, and mean it too, for during
the past year a daily average of four
thousand calls have passed through the
local board. The business has increased
to such an extent that two new positions
on the board wit: be added at once.

RAILROADS LOSE HALE
A half million dollars' says the Baker
City Herald will notcover the lostes sus
tained by the O R & N railroad during
the blockade of traffic of the past 10
days, according to the estimates of of
ficials.' '
Aside from the enormous expense of
opening the line there has been practical
ly no income for several days, all freight
and passenger trains having been tied up
and the passengers kept at the company's
expense. i
The officials dread to think of the rush
of business and the congestion which will
follow the opening of the blockade. Every
ordinary supply of motive power will in
adequate to move the volume of acccmul-
ated traffic, and the line wilt be almost as
badlv blocked with trains as it is now
With slides and washouts.

The monthly pay roll which the com'
pany is cilled upon to meet for the past
year has averaged exactly five hundred
dollars. Mr. Osburn has been in charge
for the past three years, during which
time the exchange has never for a mo
ment heen totally out of commission. At
various times a part of the exchange has
been "dead" for a few hours on account
of storms, but never for any length of
time. Within this and Wallowa counties
the company has exchange members to
the number of twelve hundred and seven
ty, and pay stations to the number of
twenty. Since June first last year to the
first of the present month the local ex
change has been increased by one hun
dred and six contracts. When asked re
garding the probable valuation of the
company's investment in this county, Mr.
Osburn declined to hazzard a guess, stat
ing that he was not the purchasing agent
for the company, and had no means of
knowing how much of anl investment the
;;xpir.y hd n fit to make in Union
county!

The work of clearing the track west of
Hood River is progressing rapidly and it
is hoped to keep it open, Several wash
outs east of The Dalles are now causing
trouble, but so far they are not serious
The Blue mountains have given the
company no trouble this winter, the
mountain division being about the only
section of the road which nas been ope'
