After many months of tedivae| waiting, Coleraine and Bovey will at last have local telephone exchanges and better communication with the neighboring towns, says the Coleraine Optic. Several months ago the commercial clubs of both towns took the matter up with the Mesaba company but at that time were unable to do anything with them, so a local company was | formed among the businessmen of both towns for the purpose of put- ting in local exchanges, but the mat- ter of obtaining franchises was held up for some time and the affair was practically dropped. ‘The organiza- tion of the local company, however, served its purpose in waking up the Mesabe ’phone people, with the re. sult that it made them “sit up and take notice,’ and they got busy at once and now we are assured of local systems in the near future. A force of liaemen and electricians have been at work all week at Bovey putting up poles and wiring the town preparatory: to installing the phones there, and the main line has been run into Coleraine where the central of- ' fice and switchboard will be located on the second floor of the First iy | ystem ready for operation in sli six weeks. cal phone service, the time is - oppor- tune for the commercial clubs to take Now that we are assured of the lo- the matter up with the company for a reduction of toll rates to the Rapids and other neighboring towns, which, while not exhorbitant, are considered much higher than paid for similar service in other parts of the state. A concerted action and an ad- justment of rates at this time will save future squabbles after the} phones have been installed, | Hurling Challenges. « The Grand Rapids and Bemidji football teams are hurling challenges at each other for a game to be played sometime next month for « purse ranging from $100 to $300 aside.
