on the Lewiston branch line from here.
Fifty men arrived from Spokane Falls
Thursday evening and are now employed

teams are at work between the two

rapidly. . -
— the salubrious climate of Pull
man not only grain, vegetables, etc., but
babies as well grow to the greatest per
fection. It was a Pullman baby that
captured first prize at Palouse City on
July 4th, the points of perfection being
beauty and good nature. Mr. and Mis.
Shupe's well driller has returned to
town and will now drill a well at the
flour mill. Mr. Shnpo has just finished
a well for E. P. Arms, at Whekn. The
water in Arm's well had come to within
about twenty feet of the surface, but
when the drill reached a depth of 160
feet it struck a flowing stream and the
water dropped to that level, being now
ICO feet from tho surface.
—The camping party which left hero
for Coeur d' Aleno lake a few days ago,
had just made camp at the lake when
Friday morning's Spokesman brought
them news of Pullman's destruction.
They did not stop to catch any fish but
hitched up and at once started home.
They reached hero Sunday. Alfred
Windus was the only one of the party
who lost property in the fire.
We have always had the impression
that the Oregoniun was "up with the
times, " but when that paper gives tho
account of the fire bore such a startling
head-line as "Fire at Pullman, W. T.,"
it's high time to Lick. The Pullman
that burned has been in the state of
Washington for some months, and while
the fire burned just as fiercely, perhaps,
as though we were yet in a territory,
] still the people have a certain pride in
the knowledge that they are vested with
all the rights of American citizens which
no fire is hot enough to extinguish.
—E. Brownfield, the man charged
with setting fire to the town, was taken
from the jail at 2 o'clock on the morn
ing of the 4th, a rope put around his
neck, and an effort made to frighten him
into a confession. He was badly fright
ened, and begged for his life, but would
confess to nothing. lie protested his
innocense, and when it was seen that
nothing could be obtained from him he
was taken back to jaiL He was given
an examination Monday morning, but
as there was not suiScient evidence to
hold him he was released. He immedi
ately started out, and has not been heard!
from since turned loose.
—Will Pullman profit by its sad ex
perience in losing ten 3 of thousands of
dollars for the lack of fire protection, or
shall we let the matter go until Gome j
future time? How can we ask capital
ists to invest in a town that has no pro
tection from the ravages of flames ? Wo ■
are blessed with r.n unlimited supply of |
water, and v we do not take immediate |
steps toward utilizing it tha fault will be j
ours. Action should, and must, be ta- !
ken at once to put in a system of water j
works which will be within our means :
and yet give ample protection. This i
{ can be dona and no time should be lost
;in doing it. One-half the value of our i
artesian wells will bo lost until means \
! are provided for handling the water. "4 !
—The Kendrick Advocate is -wel
comed by the Herald. The first issue
made its appearance on the Fourth of
July,—a patriotic.; beginning, indeed.
Kendriek has the making of the best
city on the line of the Lewis ton road
between Pullman anci'-Lewiston, and
the advocate, which is a first-class eight
pago newspaper, will cut an important
figure in making the city. • Success to
Kendriek and its Advocate.
" —The " kid " band s;> *ri:s enthusiasti
cally of the celebratioa^ and of their
treatment at Paiouse City on the Fourth.
On returning ho/ne in tha evening the
boys marched in Moan" the charred
ruins sad played a usov "?"ful dirge,, fol
lowing it up with '- la*&sb Sweet; Bye

as the dirge reminded f." 1 of , the great
Loss of the day before^ the latter
piece showed that the 1: >ys were imbued
with the same hopefol>feeling as the
older people, and that . allrr,an will, in
the sweet bye and bjs, ' bo a larger and
more beautiful city before.
—Supervisor of Gens ip HOI has given
us approximates of ;t-..i population of
the principal cities orfte&ern Washing
ton as follows: Spok.-. i j Falls, (not yet
complete), 18,628; Wai '£ Walla, 4,690;
Dayton, 1,917; Norti iakima, 1,542:
Colfax, 1,583; Pullman 350. It is grat
ifying to no to the rapi Itride Pullman
has made in population: i« the past year.
It will be but a short t'j4e when it will

The ladies of Col ton have raised money
and purchased a 1200 pound bell for tha
M. E. chuch. The bell was ordered of
Z. T. Wright, of Portland, by Kennedy
& Johnson.
The celebration at-this place was a
grand success. J. P. Hope was president
and O. L. Kennedy grand marshal of
the day. The procession formed at 10:30
a m., headed by the liberty car drawn
by eight white horses led by as many
plained knights. Ii was loaded with
small girls representing the different
states in the Union, and Miss Kate Wol
fard represented the Goddess of Liberty.
The declaration of independence was
read in an able manner by Miss Geda
Watson. Some excellent music was fur
nished followed by a speech by tie Hon.
J. J. Mitchem, orator of the day. After
dinner a game of baseball was played
by the Colton and Uniontown clubs, re
sulting in a victory for Colton. The
horribles then amused the crowd for a
short time, after which racing and other
sports were indulged in. Quite a good
display of fireworks took place at 9
o'clock, followed by a grand ball which
was enjoyed by all until a late hour.
"Where They Are Located.
Before the smoke had cleared away on
the 3rd our merchants and business men
had commenced the erection of tempo
rary buildings. New goods were
ordered, and the small stocks saved
were moved into convenient buildings.
A row of wooden buildings on a business
street of a town always endangers the
more substantial blocks near by. This
has been the case of Pullman's Main
street. The burnt district will now bo
covered with fine brick blocks, the town
council having established fire limits
extending on Main street from Pine
on the east to Grand street on the west,
and including a portion of Grand street.
The wooden buildings which are now
being built along Main street are to be
removed in from thirty to ninety days,
or as soon as tho brick buildings can be
erected.
EICHAEDSON & WILKINSON
was the first general merchandise house

forty-eight hours of the fire were Bell

of goods and will occupy the bank build
