New Telephone Exchange

The new Independent telephone company is ready to begin the work of putting in the new telephone exchange in this city. This is the company in which Messrs. Wagner and Mack are interested. The contractors who are now on the ground are Jones & Winter, of Chicago, and William Rolland of Chicago, is the superintendent of construction.

They have rented the east building of the Eata Malt Co. for their office, where they are hiring men. They have two carloads of poles already here and will start to erect them on Monday. These first poles will probably be put up in the Second ward, in the shorter pole district.

The tall poles are now on the way here from Idaho.

The exchange, it is expected, will be put in and completed this year. It is hoped to have a force of 200 men at work within the next two weeks.

Jones & Winter, the contractors, have built exchanges in Rockford, Ill., and Dallas, Texas.
