The foftbw- t ing figures and considerations of their c meaning taken from Herbert N. Casson's C new. book "The History of the Tele- 6 phone" (just publbiahed by A. C. Mc- 0 Clurg & Co.,) will interest everybody: 8 "Few telephone companies paid any .' profits at first. They had undervalued' c cost of building and 'maintenance Denver expected the ' post to be two t thousand, five hundred dollars and spent" 1: < sixty thousand*- dollars. Buffalo ex- 1 1 jlected to ^>ay thrww thousand dollars I X and had to pay one hundred andWifty j r thousand dollars. Also tliey madV the 1 1 unwelcome discovery that an exchange ! I ' of two hundred costs more than twice 1 as much as an exchange of one hundred^ 1 because of the, greater amount of trat if 1 fic. Usually a dollar that is paid to a c telephone company is divided as follows": 1 Rent T. 4c 1 Taxes . 4c' f Interest 6c [ Surplus * "8c 1 Maintenance 16c 1 Dividends 18c c \ Labor 44c 1 ■ i $1.00 i i"Most of the "rate troubles^ (and their 1 name has been* legion)- havd arisen be- i I cause the telephone business was not 1 J understood. In fact, until recently, it 1 "did not understand -itself. It persisted in holding to a local and individualistic j view of its business. It was slow to I I put telephones in unprofitable places. ! It. expected every instrument to pay its | I way. In many States, both the tele phone men and the public overlooked the most vital fact in the case, which is that the members of a telephone sys tern are above all. else interdependent. "One telephone by itself has no value. It is as useless as a reed cut out of an . organ or a finger that is severed from , a hand. It is not even ornamentary or adaptable to any other purpose: It is not at all like a piano or a talking machine. It is useful only in proportion to the number of other telephones it

where adds value to every other tele- ( phone 00 the same system of wires. ^ : That, In an sentence, is the keynote of equitable rates." ^ COURT OF COMMON PLEAS OF THE COUNTY OF CAPE MAY In the matter of the application of Memncan Hughes to have a mortgage cancelled of record.
