Cumberland: Telephone Company files another petition for increase
The Cumberland Telephone and Telegraph Company filed a new petition with the public utilities commission after dismissing its original rate request. The new filing keeps the same rate scale, with the emergency provision unchanged, signaling a strategic shift likely to strengthen public opposition. The report also mentions ongoing local games and travel notes unrelated to the utility case.
