TURN ON THE LIGHT.

The citizens OF FaIrmont should no.
forget that the Fairmont Audit Com
pany made an audit of the books OF
the city for the year 1912, that they
have been paid $500 for the same, but
for some reason these figures are not
on file at the city clerks office and
cannot be seen by the tax payers. The
reason given is that the council has
never taken up the question and the
reason 1t has not been taken up is that
It has never been presented to the
members of the council. Ask your
councilman II it is not possible TO
have this matter taken up at an early
date to let the public know what the
last statement disclOses. 1t would be
q good idea most people think to call
a special meeting OF the council for
this purpose. The people want to
know.
