Jasper County Democrat, Volume 12, Number 32, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 4 August 1909 — NOT LARGELY ATTENDED. [ARTICLE]

NOT LARGELY ATTENDED.

The “telephone meeting” here Saturday was attended by precisely two people, J. F. Bruner and Lewis S. Alter. After the “meeting” Mr. Bruner and the president of the Jasper County Telephone Co., were in consultation for a long time. Sunday word was ’phoned out to all country subscribers that they could have phones for $1 per month, instead of the $1.50 that had heretofore been asked. Not many are taking them back at this price, at least they are not tying themselves up with any long-time contracts.
