WANTS THEM
GUT OF BUSINESS
That is Said to Be the Real Reason the
Salem Terminal Traction Company
is Struggling SO Hard.

Fairmont Times: Notice was today
hled with the circuit court of Marion
county that the Salem Terminal Trac-
ton company would appear by its attor-
neys and ask that the injunction secured
against the Fairmont and Clarksburg
Traction company be made broader
made to further restrain the Fairmont
crs-and also that the injunction secured
BY the Fairmont and CIarksburg Trac-
ton company agninst the Salem Ter
minaI Traction company be dismissed.
The. discussion of the cases was laid
over until tomorrow.
1t is stated that the injunction which
was secured against the Fairmontres,
while just in every way, does not do
what the Salem company wish it to do
put the Fairmontcrs out of commits
sion Instead, the Fairmont company is
moving ahead and building legitimate
street car line and the injunction does
not hinder them in the least. But the
Injunction against the Salem people,
which is the same as the one against
the Fnirmontcrs, binders and restrains
the Salemitcs from doing what, it Is
claimed. they wanted TO do-take away
the legal and lawful right of the Fair
mont company. Hence the howl of the
Salem company.

ton The hospital authorities soon re-
stored him to consciousness. 1t was
IL 80 o'clock when they arrived at the
