A
Few Words
About f aiirrr1ont

Fairmort is widely known to be a minia-
ture edition Of many largest Metropolitan
cities Consider the huge sum Of money de-
posted IN local banks and you have clear
index to the stability of the community
which in turn suggests the high character
of the twenty-five thousand souls that live
here.
The great total Of Fairmont bank deposits
is known to folk outside of Fairmont and
it is but natural that Fairmont is respected
as market place of better class merchan-
disc.
People who live in Fairmont buy good
things. In few instances people who live
here send away for things they want but
such practice is diminishing and on the
whole there is in our community keen
demonstration of loyalty to local mer-
chants
There really isn't any need to shop out of
town nor anything to be gained by doing
SO. You can't buy finer shoes than our Fair
mont friends carry; you can't buy hand
somer or more durable furniture even in
Grand Rapids than the stores in Fairmont
will sell you; men folk can't BUY better
looking or better wearing clothes ethan
many merchants in town will provide, and
bringing the story into our own realm
where, oh where, even in New York, Bal
timore, Pittsburgh, will you find more de-
sirable values in women's wearing apparel
than are carried in the stocks Of our friend
ly competitors and in our own large stocks?
Answering the last question in our own be-
half we point to our freshly arrived Spring
merchandise. Every garment, hat and
smaller article Of dress was carefully select
ed from the very same lines that supply
the shops in New York and other large
cities. Fairmont money is just as good as
New York money and you may rest assured
that we have bought for our Fairmont
stocks just as fine and reputable merchan-
disc as you would obtain no matter where
else you shopped

failed In any kind Of a fight to pro-
tect the people Of the United States
from the trusts and the profiteers. As
for the charge that labor is a menace
to the business Of the country, it is
absolutely unfounded and an unwar-
wanted attack upon the workers of
our republic who are trying to secure
a reasonable wage that will afford
them and their dependents the oppor-
tunity to subsist despite the piracy
Of the trusts and the profiteers."
1t was definitely stated yesterday
that Speaker Gilletts name will ap-
pear at the head Of the blacklist now
being drawn UP by officials of the
federation. This list is now being
compiled. and includes the names of
all who oppose the policies of organ

American Federation of Labor that
organized labor has decided to take
an active part in the next Presiden-
tial campaign. and that an effort will
be made to defeat all candidates Tor
Congress and for the Senate whose
records show hostility toward organ
lied labor. ELECTED much comment in
Congressional circles yesterday.
Organized labor has prepared its
platform. appointed an executive COM
mittee of three, headed by Samuel
Gompers. and is now planning to or
ganize State and local committees
throughout the country.
More than 500 leaders of organ
lied labor soon will be at work
througout the country directing the
national nonpartisan political cam
paign decided on by the executive
council of the A +. of L., Vice
President Matthew WolI said yes
terday.
Speakers will be put in the field.
Trained political managers will be
sent into all districts to assist the
local bodies tn--lining up the can
didates in their districts. With a
voting strength of 100000, they
state confidently that labor will de-
eide whether a Democrat or Repup-
lican will be chosen to go to the
White House in November.
Following on the heels of the an
nouncement of organized labor.s
political plans comes the statement
from j. d. Malloy, vice president
of the Brotherhood of Railway
Shopfnen that a strike of mainte-
nance of way employees and railroad
shop laborers set for February II

final appeal to President Wilson to
