Evening Republican, Volume 20, Number 26, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 31 January 1916 — Telephone Hearing at 10 O’clock Tuesday Morning. [ARTICLE]
Telephone Hearing at 10 O’clock Tuesday Morning.
The telephone rate hearing will come up 'J’uesday morning at 10 o’clock. Charles J. Murphy, formerly of Brookston and a member of the Public Service Commission of Indiana, will be here to hear the case. - There are a number of important things in connection with the settlement of the case that should be adjusted for all time and the editor of The Republican has arranged to have these matters presented to the commissioner on this occasion. It is of public interest and there should be present a number of patrons of the company, especially those who have been required to pay $1.25 per month, a rate entirely illegal and which the company should be required to return to the subscribers all in excess of $1 per month. This will be a very proper time to make the claim. The hearing will probably take place in the court house. The February term of the circuit court will convene on the second Monday and the latest date possible to occur under the rules of the court.
