holds among the cities. of Northern
West Virginia?
A representative OF a large insur-
ance company was in the city the ott.-
er day in conference with the local
agent of his company. He warned the
local agent to be careful OF his risks"
in the event that license was voted
out of Fairmont. He said the amount
OF insurance must be reduced on prop
erty now used for saloon purposes, be
cause the property would be less val
liable. Risks are hazardous in dry
towns, he told the local man.
Vote. for who you will in the coming
city election. Everyone should have
that right. But be careful to vote for
Fairmont. A vote against license
means a vote against Fairmont.
Fairmont saloon keepers do not bury
their money in an old sock. THEY
SPEND 1T. Every dollar spent in the
saloons keeps going and adds to Fair
mont's prosperity. A dollar is doing
double service when It returns TO you.
Don't vote to spend the same dollar
in Clarksburg, where it will never 90
Fairmont any good.
go
A good citizen always stands for
the interests Of his town. Licensed sa-
looms may be wrong or right; that Is
not the question. The issue is plain
It is Fairmont's prosperity. On which
side will you be found on election
day? Are you going to vote for Fair
mont or for Clarksburg?

states can make an equal showing?s
The Fairmont West Virginian. (Fairmont, W. Va.) 1904-1914, 1908-03-11

Warrington has gone dry" If
Fairmont has saloons next year 1t will
mean that hundreds of dollars Will
come here every week which have for
merly been spent In Warrington. Do
you want this money to come here or
90 to Wheeling? A vote for license
means to have that money come to
Fairmont. A vote for license means
vote for Fairmont.
Don't let those who oppose license
dodge the real issue. Don't let them
tell you that "dry" towns means
good" town. Common sease will tell
you a good" town is place where
people spend their money, where prop
erty brings big rental, where the
country people are attracted.
Point out the harm the saloons have
done Fairmont. Are not the men of
FaIrmont sober. Industrious and relia-
BILE Are the young men drunkards?
Is the town a poor town or good
town? Don't vote to drive the town
backwards. A city can never make
headway in progressing backwards
It costs $1.1o to go to Clarksburs
and return. If you vote for license
you vote to drive 1000 people there
every week. 1t means s1,1Oo in street
car fares beside the money which will
be spent in Clarksburg. II you are
merchant you won't vote to injure
your own business and aid that Of
competitor in another town. II you
are q good citizen you won't vote to
injure Fairmont. Now is the time 70?

Facts and Figures Again

the corresponding period OF the pre-
vious year, and the gain over 1906 was
four times as large as the gain OF
1906 over 1905. and twenty-five times
as large as the gain of 1905 over 1904.
But perhaps the Building and Loan
Association makes better showing
stilI. In this organization series be-
gins every six months, November, and
May, with the series beginning May
1905, SO shares were subscribed. Up
until May. 1907. when the court refus-
ed license only SO shares were sub.
scribed. From May, 1907, to Septcm.
Der, 1907, the four months dry" re-
Rod, the number Of shares subscribed
ran up to 245. What was the matter
with the Building and Loan Associa-
ton under no-license? Nothing. only
that with no saloons open to consume
his daily earnings, the laboring man
found himself able to invest small
sums weekly in this safe way.

election she increased her majority

previous year. In January Of this year
at the regular election she increased
her majority against license over last

neople OF Cameron must like to live
without the saloons int heir town. IL
business had been hurt, lawlessness
increased, etc., everybody knows that
Cameron would not have voted dry
three times in succession. The truth
is postoffice receipts are larger than
ever before. Banks have larger de-
