Have you ever wondered why the Telephone Company insists upon
the prompt payment of telehone bills? '
It is a case where somebody must be trusted. Either we must trust
everybody by permitting them to pay us when they please, or every
body must trust us to furnish the telephone sevice for which they' pay.
in advance.
If we did not require payment in advance some people never would
pay.
In such cases the cost of installing the telephone, the expense of
furnishing sei'vice and the cost of finally removing the telephone would
have to be met. " -
Also, if we pemitted "charge accounts," a large number of people
would be slow. in paying us, and the expense of carrying such' accounts
on our bookswould be considerable.
Vhen a merchant does a credit business he must charge more for
the merchandise he sells, because the cost to a store of "bad debts" and
of carrying "slow" accounts is considerable, the same as it would be for
us. .
'
If we did not require payment of telephone rent in advance," it"would
cost us more for operating expenses, and hence it would be necessary to
charge the public more for telephone service than at present.
NEBRASKA TELEPHONE COMPANY
North Platto, Nob., Mar. 17, 1919.
To I!,.. Voters of tho City of North
Platto:
By petition duly filed, my friends
Jinve nominated mo for tho office of
Mayo- of tho City of ttorth Platto. and
,to th' end that tho votors of tho city
may understand my position on mu
nicipal affairs, I mnko this declaration
In rci. renco thorato.
FlK ST: I favor a buslnoBS admin
istration of city affairs, using tho same
economy nnd consorvntlvo business
mothiwis in municipal affairs that suc
cosufiii business mon apply to their
prlviu. btislnoss.
Sfci'OND: I recognize that mon
when not working require places to
moet. discuss tho topics of tho day,
smok and nmuso themselves, And
that l isar storo, billiard nnd pool
hull ir nbout tho only placos whero
such intercourse can be had nnd for
such purposes I favor those places also
playinn tltoroln billiards, pool and
cards tor amusement. But, I opposo
thosr Mimes, or any of them In thoso
placo--. or nny other place, where they
arp played for monoy, no matter how
dlguised, nnd If I am elected mayor
of this city, I shall attempt to stop
gambling In evory form and wherover
carrlod on.
THIRD: Prostitution should bo
vanished from tho city nnd tho scarlet
woman should bo driven from tho
streets and no longor permitted to
Haunt her vocation boforo tho youth
of the community.
FOrRTII: I favor tho strict en
forcement of tho prohibition law by
the elty police force us well as by stato
and county officials, and If elected
I shall see to It that tho city pollco
forco tiso every effort to suppress tho
salo of liquor and co-opcrato to tho
fullest extent with stato and county
offlclas to that end.
FIFTH: Our soldiers aro returning
from tho war, some sick, other wound
cd, and all havo mndo grcnt business
sacrifices to servo their country. They
should bo preferred over civilians,
when 'competent to nil public offices,
and every effort should bo made to
furnish such soldiers with employ
ment. And, for that purpose as well
as for the reason that- tho city
needs Improvements, I favor a reason
able amount of paving and work on
roads leading to the city, and favor tho
city making every effort to secure the
erection of a court house adequate to
tho needs of our largo, wealthy and
growing county.
SIXTH: Our city should ho clean
ed up. There aro even In tho busi
ness district vacant property that are
an cyo-soro and menace to tho health
of tho city, and all such paces whore
over located should bo cleaned up nnd
made Inoffensive, both to the appear
ance and sanitation of tho city.
SEVENTH: Tho city population Is
probably near 8,000 people and still
growing, and should bo provided with
public play grounds for tho children
and parks for tho adults, and I favor
taking all necessary measures to de
velop and beautify our parks.
,EIGI1TH: I favor municipal mu
le. North Patto has ono of the best
bands in the state, which has not re
ceived the support from tho city that
it deserves. The law authorizes a levy
of n tax in cities of this class to bo
paid to tho band, and I favor tho levy
nt such a tax and, tho giving of pub
lic band concerts throughout tho sum
mer for the entertainment of tho peo
ple.
NINTH: Our board In charge of tho
cometory has dono excollent work dur
ing Its existence towards cleaning up
inn Deautlfylng tho same, and I favor
tho co-operation with such board by
iwying such a tnx as Is necessary to
etiaulo tho board to coutlnuo Its work.
Should I bo elector Mayor, I pledge
myfiolf to use my best efforts and with
tho co-oporntlon of tho council and
citizens, I feel wo will bo ablo to mnko
pood. Respectfully,
JULIUS PIZER.
