Telephonic Ties I to Bind the State. i ARRANGEMENTS FOR LINK ING OF SEVERAL SERVI OKS. Colombia maj; in the near future be bie to talk to ever? town cf any im portance in eastern Sru'h ar.d North Carolina. The Hcn>e Telephone Com pany, a chartered institution, under the management of Mr. E. L Moore, with headquarters at DiiloD, has been in successful operation for some time. This system connects the towns of Marion, Mullins, Rowland, Dillon, Latta, Clio. McCol], Red Bluff, Gib son, Blenheim, Bennettsvilie, Cheraw, Chesterfield, C. H., and Fayetteville, N. C. All of these towns are beyond the Pee Dee except Che - Florence, Darlington a J Timmons ville arc now connected, and a line is beiDg constructed from Cheraw to Dar lington, via Society Hill. The Sumter Telephone Company has linea reaching out from Sumter io every direction, its eastern terminus beiog Elliotts, a distance of about 12 miles from Timmonsville. This short line between these two points will soon be built, thus connecting the two systems. The Sumter Company has arranged to build to Camden, a distance of 30 miles, ia order to be in touch with Kershaw, Lancaster, Chester, Rock Hill and Charlotte, N. C. The Columbia city council recently granted a charter to Messr9. J A. Helvin, Robt. Moorman and H. J. j Simmons to establish and operate a I telephone system in this city, and it is their purpose to perfect an arrangement with the Sumter Company, and through them connect with the Home Telephone Company in eastern Carolina. It wili only be necessary to build direct to Camden, a distance of 27 miles; Sum ter ro build from Elliotts to Timmons ville, a distance of 12 miles, and from Sumter to Camden 30 mile3, and then Columbia can talk to Dearly every town of importance, to say nothiog of the hundreds of private residences between here and Fayetteville, N C. Negotiations are DOW in progress be tween the heads of tbs three systems, and it is probable that an arrangement may bs made between them-not for consolidation but for an interchange cf service. It is not probable that aoy arrangement will be made with the Beii Company, and it is the disposition of various independent companies in the State to act in concert. . The value of such an arrangement to the business interests of Columbia can hardly bs estimated. This is all the more true when it is said that an effort is to be mads to get a line from bcre to Newberry, connecting the Hel vin plant witb the towns of the Pied mont country If the plan indicated above is carried out then at DO distaot day one may expect to see two of the most importaot sectioos of tbe State talking with tbe capital city and with one another.-The State, July 3.
