ershlp, Its agreement with the Depart
ment of Justice, the sala of Its Western
Union holdings and Its relation with the
goneral public are'all set forth In detail
In the annual report ot the American
Tetephonc and Telegrah company Just Is
sued. President Theodore N. Vail has some
thing very definite to say In regard to the
government ownership of telephones ani
his frank discussion of this question Is
perhaps the most Interesting feature of
the report.
(ovrrnnirnt Ownership.
In summing up the attitude of the com
pany towards this subject, Mr, Vail saya;
i "Our opposition to government opera
tion and ownership Is not based on pe
cuniary, pa.'tlsan, prejudiced or personal
reasons. It' la'brcauep of our Interest In
the upbuilding of a great public utility
and Its preservation.
"We n re. opposed to government owner
ship because we know that no government-owned
telephone system In the
world Is giving as chrap and efficient
service as the American public Is getting
from all Its talephone companies! We do
not believe that our government would
.be any exception to the rule."
Jl ninths that the common Impression

report favorlnr the acqulslllori'of the wire

The extension of the telephone plant
during tho year amounted to tM.K7J.H6,.

Jamieson Declares He
Was Intoxicated When

Alleging that ho was Intoxicated when
he weddpd her, James D. Jamieson yes
terday sought to have District Judge
fears annul his marriage to Luella Jamie
son. Jamieson declared that he did not
know wliBt ho was doing when the wed
ding ceremony was performed by the late
,'Ustlcc Altstadt, December II, 1911.
A friend who witnessed tho ceremony
testified that all the members of the wed
ding party were the worse for liquor, but
that ho thought he retained his faculties
to a greater degree than the other. Ho
named another friend as "best man" at
the wedding.
"I thought you said you were tho best
man," remarked Judgn Hears
"No, I wasn't the best mun."
"Well, but you said you curried your
liquor better."
At this point all those who were In the
court room allowed their appreciation of
.the Judicial Joke by Indulging In laughter.
After hearing moro evidence Judge Sears

"The government .owned European
telephone plants, notwithstanding the low
price of foreign labor, are carried at .1
much higher cost than thoie ot the Bell
system, and yet every one of them uaoa
the Bell system as a model. Tho book
valuo of the plant of the Bell system per
station la less than CO per cent that of
Belgium; less than 75 per cent that ot
AustilM about per cent that of Ger
many, Great Britain and Swttierland, and
all of them government owned."
Mr. Vail brings out the fact that Amor
leans are better aupplled with telephone
facilities than any other people, having
alx times aa many telephones per capita
as Great Britain and thirteen tlmea ad
many aa France, and that tho ratea herv
are as popular as those of any govern
ment owned plant.
In showing th Inability ot the post
office to operate the telephone business
vit.o ently, he soya:
"Tho auccess of tho pare if post haa
been set up aa a reason for the govern
ment operation ot the telephone and tele
graph. Why It ahould be la hard to un
derstand. The two services have nothing
ln common and are In no way compar
able. The parcel post la not in any acnue
a new aervlee; It has merely Increased
the volume of the malls by ramovlng
some limitations aa to atse and weight of
packageafcmalled, and making aome re
duction in rates of postage for merchan
dise, "It would not lie a question of capacity;
the experiment would be disastrous prin
cipally because the postmasters are not
fitted by experience or training for the
telegraph or telephone buslneaa. but also
Decauae it would be secondary to their
groery-dry goods-notion snop, their prin
