You will want electric service in your home. Hadn’t you better arrange to have your house wired at once? Let us make an estimate on your work. Taylor Electric Co.

There is a possibility, however, that 24-hour service cannot be inaugurated for the present, because of som 3 complications with the Co-operative-Bell telephone. The coming of the electric current has quite demoralized the telephone toll line, a grounded line, between Linden and Crawfordsville, and the owners of that line are demanding of the Montgomery Light & Power Co., that it shall rebuild their line to a full metallic line, while the new light company refuses to set new poles and rebuild their line. Whether or not this matter can be settled out of court is yet to be seen; and any delay of the electric current is laid to this trouble. The new electric lines are completed and are ready sor full 24-hour service, but until a satisfactory settlement can be met, we may have light service only from 8 to 12 each night It is to be hoped an amicable understanding can soon bi arrived at, and the new juice kept coming. Negotiations are on for the sale of the Bell and the co-operative telephone systems at Linden to private parties, the two plants to be thus combined, and the new trouble between them and the light people is holding up the sale.
