Guthrie Faces Phone Exchange Issues In King County
Sheriff Bob Walker reports Guthrie Texas, county seat of King County, cannot receive most long distance calls due to a nonlocal phone exchange. Caprock Telephone Co. owns the exchange serving Guthrie and surrounding communities, complicating calls to the sole town in the county. Guthrie hosts the Four-Sixes Ranch and is unincorporated, complicating municipal status and telephone routing. The county has a single law officer and limited communication outside the area.
