Speech

When the telephone officials in Mexico Gity decided that inhabitants of the border town of Nuevo Laredo, Mex., would have to pay 5-c- extra to call the citizens of Laredo, Tex., the inhabitants of Nuevo Laredo became annoyed with the telephone company and took thought for a revenge. Three hundred of them, last week, removed their receivers from their hooks and left them there, thus paralyzing the service.
