Will Not Repair Line
At the annual meeting of th«* Scio
Mutual Teivphom* nimpany. it was
voted to repair the commercial line
between this city am! Jefferson. A
committee of three consisting of E.
C. Peery, John Holt and W. Wilson
was appointed to l»M»k afu«r th«*
matter. An i«sarm»mcnt was order
ed to provide for the expense.
Some of the lines leading out
south objecte«i to the ex|>en»c and
intimated that they would withdraw
from the Scio exchange, if the order
was enforced.
By inquiry, the committee found
they could conn««ct with the Bell
system under favorable circumstan
ces ami the further fart that the
ruling of the State Railroad com
mission would protect the Scio ex
chang«* in every way. decided to not
rebuild the Scio-J ««ffer son line and,
for commercial pur|Mx«rs. cae the
Bell lines
Now it is intimated, the North
western telephone tieopie will r»*j»air
the ScioJefferwm line at their osm
expense, rather than lose the bual-
naca.
By this arrangement, the Scio ex
change will have connection with
two commercial lines and avoid the
necesmty of levying an asM*«mm<*nt
to repair their own commercial line
to Jefferson.
