An important real f-Hato transaction

.Mo:nIay on t lie new telephone svsteni
for Medford that the I'acitie Telephnin
eompaiiy is iiiHtalliug to n'pliico the
lueseiil service, whieh it is admitted,
the eity bus outgrowa. Ten uion wore
put to work rewiring houses and the
baliillee will work ili-.'al(ing telephone
poles. One ear of poles have arrived,
the first of '( ears oideled here. One
ear of wire has been received and an
other is on the way.
Six miles cable will be -.notched
on tho new system 'o replace the net
work of wires now in use. Part of thom
will be laid in subwavii. Many of the
new poles will be placed iu alleys. When
onipleted, Medford will have the fin
est phone system of any small eitv in
the laud.
If another system were installed, it
would mean a ivinilir forest of imles
long the strfiMs, states the lelepli
hen, for there would bo t wo svstomr
poles in addil ion to the light and
power poles. Merchants and biiMticsv
men will hnve to p:iy two phono foil
tals, aiut those who had the proposed
ti .ens' lino would get no long distance
r ice. Orients P;if, ' council has re
fued tho franchise a ket I for. o that
Medforil customers Would onlv be able
to talk inside the city.
The many disndv:mtngos til" a dual
phone svstom have been reapeil w her
ever I r ictl. There is no city that ha
tried two syiteniM without regretting it.
ami if t lu Pacific Telephone compauv
modernize its system here and gi e

Medford should encourage a rival svs
