Linemen Driven Away By Angry Linn Parmer
Albany Ore October 15 Linemen employed by the Home Telephone company who have been placing cross arms on the poles of the Postal Telegraph company between Albany and Tangent were ordered off the farm owned by the late E Settlemeter near Tangent Saturday. The farmer in charge threatened to use armed force to retain possession if needed. The Postal Telegraph line runs outside the Southern Pacific right of way and some landowners claim their property is as valuable as the railroad’s. The railroad has been authorized to charge about 100 dollars per mile for this use. Farmers of the region plan united action to compel the telegraph company to settle for land use.
