Pullman's Town.

Mr.. Pullman does not appear to have
made very good impression upon the
committee that is investigating the re-
cent railway strike and boycott. He de-
clined to go into details, saying that his
subordinates would furnish all the in
formation the committee desired upon
special matters.
There is no doubt that he had a benevo-
lent object in view when he projected the
town CT Pullman, but his own testimony
made it clear that he intended from the
very beginning to have almost absolute
control of the people of his town. His
purpose was, and is still, to decide the
question of wages without outside in
reference and without consulting
with his employees, and it is
pretty clear that he thinks
he has right to dictate to the
people who live in his town in matters
relating to their personal liberty In
other words, he comes very near owning
the people as well as the houses of his
town. Naturally there is a great deal OF
itself strongly as soon as wages began to
be reduced.
In his testimony he admitted that rents
had not been reduced when wages were
reduced. The fact that the people who
lived in his houses had a good deal oi
money in his bank may have had some
thing to do with his failure to reduce
rents.
1t is pretty safe to say that Pullman as
a model town is failure. 1t was greatly
admired when everything was prosperous
but its weak features cropped out just as
soon as there were conditions that caused
its merits to be tested.

that he would have nothing to say upon
the new tariff until that time, but then
he would express himself with regard to
it. In the interim he will search history
and literature for hard things to say
against the new tariff The literature
of the Mckinley tariff, by the wav, would
furnish him with choice lot of explosives

Alex. Brewster deserves especial
mention for the manner in which he
held down first base and the fly catches
he made in the game. Geo. Elkins
did fine work in the box, and as for
shortstop, no amateur can beat Ed
Aldrich. ]. B. Marks made some fine
hlgh-jump catches, and Henry Smith
did fine work in running bases.
One particular thing that ought to
be stopped in this city, is the noise
that is made by spectators. 1t was al
most continuous roar during the en-
tire game, and was enough to "rattle"
an iron man. There can be nothing
gained by such procedure, and GER
tainly it is very annoying to those who
are not inclined to be boisterous while
witnessing a game Of base ball. lfit
is continued, it will become nuisance
to the city and complaints to t be city
council will undoubtedly be ma de. II
is no part of good ball playing and no
man Can play good ball while such an
unnecessary noise is kept up. Let us
have good ball and less noise, and be
abreast with other towns of the valley.

OBITUARY.

Henry H. Vroom was born at Marilla
Erie Co., New York, May 81 1888.
Died at Lebanon, Ore. May 81 1894,
early in the morning Of his 56th an
niyersery. The diseased was left an
orphan by the death Of his mother,
when he was 2 years old and was
reared by an elder sister with whom
he made his home until he reached the
age Of l6. On arriving at majority
he removed to Wisconsin and engaged
in numbering for several years. In
1854 he came west and engaged in
mining in Idaho. Subsequently he
removed to Marion county, Oregon
and engaged in the manufacturing Of
shingles. In 1888 in company with
his brother Elijah B. Vroom, he trans
ferred his interests to Linn county and
continued the shingle industry, erect
ing shingle mill at Cedar Flat. In
1891 they moved their mill to its pres
ent location. Henry, as he was known
to all, was of a modest disposition, of
IN extremely unselfish nature, living
md laboring for others rather than for
himself. Kind and courteous to all
frank and honorable in all his dealings
of an irreproachable character, he has
left many friends to sincerely mourn
his untimely death. lie had suffered
for some tine from valvular disease of
the heart, and at last was compelled to
give up his labors at the mill, and was

FIRE At SODAVILLE
Caught from a Defective
Flue IN the Hotel,
VERY LITTLE INSURED
Almost the Entire BuSi-
ness Part of Town
Burned.

Sodaville was visited last night by a
5000 fire and the principal block of
that beautiful little village and great
health resort is now in ashes.
The fire was discovered about Ills
last night in the Valley View hotel
which was built about three years
ago at a cost Of $1,000. The hotel was
owned and managed by w. II. Hard
man. 4he fire originated from de-
fective fue in the kitchen of the hotel
and was well under way before dis
covered and could not be gotten under
control. Nothing was saved from this
building. 1t was insured for only
$500 aud the furniture was insured
for $3.50 IN the Manchester Insurance
Company of England
Adjoining the hotel building was
the new three room store building of
DIR. J. L. Hill which was occupied by
n. w. Fisher and Dr.. A. G. Prill.
One room Of the building contained
the old newspaper plant of the Soda
vile Review which was saved.
Mr.. Fisher carried a general mer-
rhandise stock valued at about $4,000
most Of which was saved but consid-
crably damaged, probable loss 5000 by
fire, besides what was damaged. He
carried $4,000 insurance in northwest
Portland. He was also postmaster at
that place but saved everything per-
tanning to the office.
| DR.. Prill's loss was about $3.50,
mostly in the way Of fixtures. No in
81, rance.
n Ne building cost about $4,000 but as
nr u I'll is in Albany it is not known
ybetber there was any insurance or
not.
The next vas the old Fountain hotel
which was ou ned by ]. P. Chester.
MIR. Chester's re. 'idence and a small
store building was also burned, all of
which were old buildings, his loss is
probably s25OO or $4,000. No insurance.
The people of Soda vile worked
bravely and had it not beeu for their
heroic efforts, the whole town would
have been in ashes, instead OF one
block. The EXPRESS sympathlzes
with all who lost by fire, and regrets
the loss for the town and hopes to soon
see the burned block covered with
better buildings in the near future.
