Pullman Under Fire.

OeOfge Iu Fullman On she SCan0
for nearly three hours, and the
spectacle he presented before the
Commission had finished with him
could not have been gratifying to
| those who have been accustomed tp
regard him as a great philanthro-
pist and as an employer having at
heart the interests Of his workmen.
Mr.. Pullman testified that he
had put in bids f-r cars for the
Long Island Railroad at something
between $500 and $400 per car
below actual cost, because he had
made up his mind that the com
pany would contribute that much.
rather than have the men in his
employ idle. This was very We'll
on its face, but Judge Worthingtom
one Of the Commissioners, brought
out the fact that the companys
original capital stock of 81 100000
in 1867, had Increased to $50, 00O-
900, and that the. company had
paid dividends of II per cent du-
ring tn. Grst two years of its or
ganization, 81 per cent during the
next two years, and 8 per cent an
nually since, aud at the same time
had accumulated surplus of $685.
100000.
The question was then asked of
Mr.. Pullman whether he did not
think that a company which paid
dividends of 100000 year.
could afford to share the losses of
it's employees who had worked for
it for long time, to which he re-
piled that he knew no reason why
the profits of 1900. stockholders in
the Pullman Sleeping-Car Compa-
ny should be taken to pay wages in
the manufacturing business. Tn
reply to another question Mr.. Pull
man said that while the wages of
the operatives were reduced the
salaries of superintendent aud fore.
man we're not, because it was not
good policy to reduce the salaries
Of high officials, as men Of their
caliber were not easily replac ed.
1t is not difficult to see that Mr..
Pullman's chief concern was for the
stockholders and their dividends,
and not for the workmen at the
celebrated town of Pullman. In
that town there have been many
strange things done under the guise
of philanthropy. It seems to be
established that rents were rather
above than below the average, and
it is certain that the library, on
which so much stress has been laid
cost So per year for adults and ST
per year for each child. This is
certainly not the generosity which
Mr.. Pullman's admirers have claim
ed for him.
With the merits of the strike at
Pullman we do not concern our
selves at the present time, but the
testimony of George M. Pullman
himself before the Labor Commits
sion shows that he has appealed for
public sympathy and respect on in
sufficient grounds. The two facts
of payment of $2,800,000 in
dividends in a single year, on the
one hand, and a reduction of 50
per cent or over in the wages of
operatives, on the other, cannot he
explained by the subdivision of the
Pullman interests into separate
companies or corporations, and
such, wo apprehend, will be the
finding of the Labor Commission

THE MARTlNsBURG MEETING.

Pursuant to a call of well-known
members of the party, the Democrats
of Berkeley county met in Martins
burg last Saturday to pass resolutions
urging our Senators to use their IN
huence to secure the speedy passage
of the Wilson tariff bill. There was
large attendance present, and we I'M
derstand that harmony and good feel
ing prevailed.
James c. Frazer called the meeting
to order and explained its purpose.
Hon. Alexander Parks was made
chairman and Capt. W. B. Colston
and C. w. Boyer secretaries. The
chairman made short address and
appointed R. N. Stewart, D. R. Hudgel,
D. C. Westenhaver, Thos. S. Richard
and John D. Kilmer a committee to
report resolutions. After recountlng
the discreditable acts of the last Re-
publican administration, among which
were mentioned the enormous and
wasteful appropriations of the public
money, the attempt to destroy local
control of elections and the passage of
the Mckinley bill, they set forth the
record of the present administration,
regretting the delay of Congress in
passing the Wilson BILL and closed as
follows:
"Re,olued, That we denounce the Republi-
can press and the protected manufacturers
as the chief obstacles in the way OF a spec iy
settlement of the tariff question and com
plete resumption OF business. They have
mainta ned out of their il-gotten gains Inn
mrnse Hobbies AZ Washington for the pur-
pose of obstructing reform, and OF bounding
members OF Congress and the Senate into
granting them an extension OF their prlvi-
lege OF plundering the people. and have tried
TO intimidate the country into receding from
Its oft-decared purpose OF abandoning the
policy of protection by enforced lockoun
and reductions in the wages OF their em
ployes.
"Resolued That we denounce rs their allies
the Republican 3 majors who bave dec AIRED
their Intention to delay indefinitely the pas
sage OF the tariff bill. and have created new
methods OF obstruction to accomplish this
end, proclaiming as tn ir object the scandal
Gus and unpatriotic purpose of preventing
II possible a complete resumption oil busl-
ness until after the next general lection.
Resolved That we have confidence that
The Senators from West Virginia WILL in rec
ognition of the unanimous opinion of the
party In the state, cooperate In securing the
speedy passage OF the Wilson bill, an We
hold that any Democratic member OF Con-
gress who will cooperate with these monop
olists, trusts and tariff benehciaries and their
Republican allies in Congress In furthering
scheme OF delay so infamous is unworthy OF
the confidence and support OF the people,
and we sincerely trust thai in this most crit
ical period In the tight for industrial freedom
none will be found in our ranks"
After the adoption of the above the
following was offered by D. G. Weston
haver and adopted:
Resolved That We are in favor of electing
Senators by a popular vote"
Before its adoption Senator Faulk-
ner addressed the assembly, and eI-
pressed himself as being in hearty &C
cord with the move to elect Senators
in this manner.

SENATOR cAMDEN's DEMOCRACY.

There can be no doubt that the De-
mocracy of Senator Camden of West
Virginia is of the all-wool, yard-wide
sort. 1t has always been proven So.
The address of the Minnesota Dem
ocrats recently issued charged him
with being one of the tariff obstruc-
tionists. We copy the following in
terview with him on this subject from
the Baltimore Sun of yesterday:
Senator Camden, OF West Virginia, was
speaking to your correspondent today about
the recent proclamation of the Minnesota
Democracy. He said that while 1t was an
anonymous production and therefore not
entitled to as much consideration as II repu-
table signatures were affixed to It. he
thought it might be due TO himself to take
some notice OF 1t. So far AS its structures
applied TO him they were absolutely without
any foundation or warrant. He had never
In the slightest degree undertaken TO die
tate to the finance committee with respect
10 Its action on the Wilson tariff bill. He
had made no demands. requested no stipu-
lations, exacted no conditions as the price OF
his support. To the contrary, he had by
every means In his power endeavored to
tighten the difficulties and smbarrassments
which beset the committee; be had aided
the members as far as he could In facilitating
the report OF the bill TO the Senate. he tx.
pected, and lad alTsSs expected. to vote
for the bill in whatever shape 1t Was agreed
upon as a party measure. and had lot the
remote idea Of separating himself from the
body OF his party friends. He you'd Leave
nothing undons, so far as he was concerned,
to expedite the passage OF the bill. This
very full and frank statement OF Mr.. Cam
den, without any doubt, removes him from
the list OF conservatives"

On, but that Martinsburg meeting
was harmonious-sugary, indeed, in
its sweetness. There had been fear
that some persons corns might be
stepped upon, but how nicely this
was avoided. There were some real
tariff reformers who had thought that
the glaring difference between the
tariff ideas of Chairman Wilson and
certain Democratic Senators who want
ed protection might at least be re-
ferred to, but the sugar coating was
applied thick enough to cover them
too.
Indeed, the meeting seems to have
worn sort of apologize air for hav-
ing gotten itself together, and all
those resolutions that say so much
really mean very little. The meeting
was well managed-by someone.

man, whose hair is beginning to turn
gray. He has dark mustache. He
seemed greatly bored by the proceed
ings, and leaned back in his chair
with a disguised look on his face.
Most of the time he looked at the
ceiling or out of the window.
Many persons hung around the
corridors of the courthouse trying
in vain to get inside. But the bailiffs
on guard were memorable unless the
coveted pass was presented. CROWDS
pressed around the doorways to see
the chief actors in the tragedy as
they came and went.
A great deal has been said about
the publication in the newspapers OF
the facts connected with the trial,
and many persons are Of the opinion
that the newspapers have given too
many of the sensational details. If
any fair-minded person should have
attended the trial and heard the evil
dence as it was given and then read
the reports in the press, he would
have taken his hat off to the newspa-
pers for what they refrained from
printing. The trial has been reported
I in decent, careful manner. We be-
lieve the publication of the facts will
result in great good, for he who runs
may read the moral that the man
who violates the laws of morality and
honesty, no matter how high his sta
ton in life may be, is bound to suffer
the penalty of his transgresslons,

Bissell objects to making changes in

his promised speech in the Senate last
Monday on the tariff bill His famous
utterance II am a Democrat" will
have to be revoked, for his speech was
undemocratic. He plainly intimated
that he would not vote for the tariff
bill unless it was amended to suit him

to attack the Hawaiian affair and other
matters that had no connection with
the tariff.
