LETTERS TO
THE EDITOR
PLEA FOR THE HONEST TAXI
MAN

FAlRMoNT. March as.-[EditO.
The West Vtrglnianl-Am Ny
Brothers Keeper? Or Shall Suffer
for my Brothers In? OF the Mayor and
City Police Force ask this ques-
ton. 1t has been known to the city
Police Force and TO the Public in
general that the Watson corner
among the Taxi cars had become a
public nuisance and a detriment TO
our bright social little city. And
am indeed surprised that good citl
gems (of which We have plenty a..
lowed it 10 be carried on as long as
they did. There would be a crowd Of
Boys land some mem who would
cougregate on this corner apparent
ly for no other purpose only to raise
old cain and create a nuisance, max
ing it almost impossible for decent
ladies' and gentlemen to pass by with
moral safety. But must say il
protection to right and justice to all
men that there was, as the Police
Force and the general public can and
must say, some men who came there
10 PARK with their cars looking for
their Just and honorable trade. They
went into the park like gentlemen
sit in their cars like gentlemen, treat.
ed til city Police Force and the gen,
ersl public in a gentlsmanly way
These men, most Of them, live at (
distance from the park others are
in garages where 1t is impossible for
them to answer calls for the reason
that the Yaroges have their own
taxi cars so YOU see by deprivins
these men OF the park and the streets
You are taking all or part at least
Of their livelihood and laying the
az at the foot Of the wrong tree.
So | must again repeat, Am Ny
Brothers Keeper or Shall Suffer
for my Brothers sin? 1t 1t was proven
that two or three hotels were nui-
sance in Fairmont would the maycr
and City Police close all others that
were law abiding and respectable?
If it was proven that Mr.. Beckman
and Mr.. Harrison, who are on the
opposite corner from the taxi park,
were nuisances, would the mayor
and city police force close all the
stores in Fairmout or make ;hem go
back on a back street or 10 their
homes? II .ir. Wise who Is on this
mIle street sod rotten mel: and the
mayor and City Police Fore wanted
it prevented, would they order all
the meat markets in the city closed?
/ II few men and boys were caught
carrying matches in their pockets
contrary to law in the Consolidation
Coal Company's mines would the
Coal Company shut down the mines
and thereby deprive honest honorable
mon Of livelihood and thereby bring
the sins Of few upon the shoulders
Of many? say No, No! a thousand
times, no. The offender in each case
would be picked out, dealt with &C.
cording to law, made to abide by
our city law. Which if carried out is
one Of the best in the country, or
quit business.
Thanks to the city Of Fairmont, we
have Grand Police Force; one that
Is dOIe W cope WIZ any anu all CIT"
cumstances. Then why should they
load upon my Brother taxi man and
sins Of our uudeserving Brother
Taxi man and his clique. We feel as
honorable taxi men, citizens and tax
payers of Fairnont that we are be.
ing unjustly dealt With. Without a
cause other than tho faults of others
for which we are not 10 blame.
