now, as later on, that Fairmont will
not prosper and grow under the pres
Gnt form Of government. People now
are trying to sell their property to
leave the city OIL account of local
conditions. One of the largest prop
clty owners of the city. an old citi-
zen, was asked to buy some property
few days ago ut bargain. He said
he would not invest another dollar
IN Fairmont real estate under pres
cnt conditions. He further stated
that, :he would sell every piece of
property he had If lie could find a
buyer, ana leave the city. 1t does
seem that those who are responsible
