Pullman herald. [volume] (Pullman, W.T. [Wash.]) 1888-1989, 1898-06-04


A number OF military companies
have been organized in this county, each
hoping to be recognized in the second
call made for troops, and the governor
finds himself confronted with an army
OF several thousand men asking that they
be enlisted when he is asked 10y the gen
eral government TO furnish but 700. AS
a result an effort was made by the Col
fax companies, on the suggestion Of the
adjutant general, to consolidate the two
ColfaX companies with the Pullman
company, as one company might be all
Whitman would be asked to furnish. At
meeting Of the Pullman company this
week the consolidation idea was put
aside for the very sufficient reason that
it needed no more men to fill its ranks,
and the company was composed OF drilled
men, while the other companies in the
county were not full, and were without
military training Whitman county can
reasonably expect to furnish two COM
panies on this call, and II there is to be
consolidation it should be of the two Col
tax COMPANIES, neither of which has its
full quota OF men. The cadet company
is entitled by every right to call.
B, Il. Baird, young man who had
worked in Lindlcys hardware store for
some months past, died very suddenly OF

assistance could be called, the young
man had died without regaining con-
seriousness, death having been almost in
stantaneous. The remains were EN-
baImed, and shipped to Montpelier,
Ohio, where his parents reside, for in
ment. The deceased was 80 years of age,
of excellent habits, and we'll liked by his
associates. He carried life insurance
