In regard to telephone extension and connections westward the Stevens Point Gazette says:  The telephone connection of Stevens Point with the balance of the state, south and east, is now assured.  T. D. Stone, the gentleman who has the matter in charge, spent Monday in the city and yesterday morning started for Grand Rapids.  At that time nearly enough subscribers had been secured and the balance of the stock required had been pledged, so there is no doubt but that we can speak to the citizens of Milwaukee, Oshkosh, Green Bay, Waupaca, etc. ere long.  Jut how soon the work of putting up the poles and stretching the wire from Waupaca to this city will be commenced, could not be determined when Mr. Stone left.  However, there will be as little delay as possible.  He left well pleased with our city, and the treatment shown him while here.
