CHARTER
NOT FEDERAL AFFAIR
And Thomas S. Raymond is
Crying Before He Is
Hurt.

Lawyers who have seen the full
opinion Of the United States Circuit
Court are wondering just what posi-
ton Attorney John A. Howard, of
Wheeling, who is acting for Thomas
S. Raymond in the Fairmont Charter
case is going to take when he appeals
from it. The opinion of the Circuit
court makes 1t pretty clear that the
Charter case has not the slightest
standing in the federal courts. The
full opinion has Just reached Attorney
A. s. Felming, who represented the
friends of the new charter in all the
litigation over the new charter. 1t
is as follows:
"In this action Thomas S. Raymond,
citizen OF Kentucky, owning real es.
tate in the city of Fairmont, in the
state OF West Virginia, seeks to ell
join tho enforcement of an act of the
Legislature of West Virginia which re.
peals the existing charter OF the city
and enGcts new one. The principal
ground upon which the application
for injunction is based is the allega.
ton that the act is invalid because it
was not enacted in accordance with
the provision of the Constitution OF
West Virginia requiring that bill
must he read on three different days
in each house. The Supreme Court
Of West Virginia has decided in the
case of Anderson VS.. Bowen, 90 S. E.
667, that this objection to the act can.
not be sustained. This is conclusive
in thi; court. In the case of Leeper
VS.. Texas, 139 U. s. 400, the Supreme
Court of the United States decided
that the question whether the statutes
of legislatSre Of state have been
duly eracted in accordance with the
requirements of the Constitution of
the state Is not a federal question, and
that the decision of the state court as
to what are the laws of the state is
binding upon the courts of the United
States.
"The objection made that that the
enforcement of certain provisions OF
the new charter would violate the
rights of the complainant under the
14th Amendment of the Constitution
of the United States in that their en-.
forcemont would deprive the complain.
ant of Lis property without due pro-
cess of law is no ground upon which
this court could declare the charter alb.
solutely void and enjoin its going into
effect. If after the municipality is or.
ganized under the new charter an eff
fort is made to deprive complainant of
any Of his rights under the Constitu-
ton OF the United States, 1t will be
time enough for him to ask an injunc-
ton for his protection. Even If the
charter undertakes to confer upon mu-
nicipal officer spowers the exercise
of which would violate the constitu.
tional rights of citizens, that is no
ground Tor declaring the whole charter
void. Reagan VS.. Farmers Loan &
