The Independent Telephone Companies Hue
1 Red Hot Session ia Lincoln.
The feature of Wednesday's session
of the Independent telephone men in
Lincoln was a red hot discussion of
the bills now before the legislature
providing for uniform telephone ser
vice from all com Dan I es. The mem
bers of the association were much op
posed to the measures.and a committee
appointed to confer with Senator Ep
person, author of the bill most dis
cussed, reported back to the conven
tion that the conference was a most
unsatisfactory affair, so far as they
were concerned. . The Independents
assert that the Epperson bill was
framed lor.the. sole purpose, of assist
ing the Bell company.
The morning session of the associa
tion was opened with a roll call, the
representatives of the independent
concerns responding with a report of
their work during the past year. Some
declared that the fight for business
with the Bell company has been a
walk-away. It was said that one of
the methods the Bell used to compete
with the independent service was to
install free 'phones. This had been
tried in a number of districts, but it
was asserted it had not won out. It
was also asserted the farmers want
telephone service, and in many locali
ties an unprecedented demand for in
struments had been made from the
country districts. Several representa
tives stated that in their districts
double and even treble the number of
'phones had been installed during 1906
than ever Defore." At the beginning of
the afternoon session, the committee
on resolutions, composed of Warren
Pratt, Kearney; Dr. Lyman, Hastings;
R. V. Montegue, Beatrice; F. n.
Woods, Lincoln; T. H. Pollock, Platts
mouth, submitted the following reso
lutions that were adopted by the association:
Resolutions Adopted.
"Whereas, several bills have been
introduced into the legislature the ef
fect of which will tend to restrict and
restrain the development of the inde
pendent telephone movement through
out the state, and
"Whereas, all of said bills will affect
the development of all the indepen
dent telephone companies now exist
ing and prevent other telephone com
panies from being organized, and in
dependent plants being constructed,
and
"Whereas, investors will hesitate to
invest in telephone securities of inde
pendent companies and unsettle the
values of such securities, if any ad
verse legislation is enacted at this ses
sion of the legislature, and
"Whereas, any legislation at this
session tending to force the independ
ent companies throughout the state to
connect with the Nebraska Bell com
pany will stifle the growth of all inde
pendent companies throughout the
state, and
"Whereas, any legislation forcing
the independent companies to operate
or connect with the lines of the Ne
braska Telephone company will pre
vent the construction of independent
telephone lines throughout the state,
and will restore to the Nebraska Bell
company its former monopoly, and
"Whereas, it is unfair, unjust and
unreasonable to the independent com
panies now doing business in this
state to force them to connect their
respective lines with those of the Ne
braska Bell Telephone company, and
"Whereas, legislation of this char
acter will depreciate the value of the
property of the independent companies
throughout the state, and will render
their present telephone service inef
ficient and ineffective, and
"Whereas, an independent company
has just begun the construction of an
independent telephone plant in the
city of Omaha, and any legislation of
this kind forcing companies of the
state to connect with the lines of the
Nebraska Bell Telephone company
would not only destroy and confiscate
the property of the weaker telephone
companies of the state, but would pre
vent the construction of the indepen
dent telephone plant at Omaha, and
"Whereas, any such legislation at
this session will be very detrimental
to the interests of the people of the
state of Nebraska, in that it will de
stroy all competition. Now, therefor
"Be it resolved, that we oppose all
bills now introduced in the legis:ature,
and that we earnestly request all citi
zens of the state of Nebraska using in
dependent telephones.to request their
respective senators and representa
tives to vote against any and all said
bills as they now stand, and that
"We favor the introduction of a bill
preventing unjust discrimination on
the part of all telephone companies
throughout the state, and we further
favor the enactment of such law as
will prevent the giving or accepting
of any free coupons, passes or telephone
service of any character whatsoever."
tlgue, J. M. Bell, M. W. Dimery, Mr.
Clark, T. H. Pollock. After an hour's
absence the committee returned and
reported that they met with a com
plete rebuff, but resolved to carry on
the war to the bitter end if necessary.
