and told the story of the march of the California
regiments OF the Industrial Army from OdK-
land to Washington.
Mr. Eugene HOugh presided. and an original
poem by Ii. D. Hougham was read by the
author.
The general was, of course, the attraction of
the evening. He was given thirty minutes in
which to briefly summarize his remarkable
march, after which questions were asked for
fifteen minutes, and the general answered
them ali.
General Kelley said that when he started
from Oakland he fully expected TO reach Wash
ington. Such thing as failure never occurred
10 him. His experience was a confirmation OF
his anIicipations, and his march, he said, was
one long succession of triumpbs.
1--WE knew 40 color nor creed" said the gen.
eTal, Except in the case of the Chinamen-we
barred them out There was no favoritlsm. If
we only had one pie we cut it up into $50 pieces
and every man had a piece.
"The expedition was not political or moral
failure. The whole world has been rudely
awakened from its indifference upon labor
problems. Everybody is thinking about our
demands. am convinced tonight that the
Industrial Army movement will be a grand
success. In five years there Will be no such
thing as an idle man who is willing TO work.
"0ur motto all along was that the Govern
ment must give work TO men whom private
capital does not employ. That IS our senIi-
ment to-day.
I'VE are going to choose one day in the year
and call IL Labor day. and we are going 10
make 1t such. We will march 10 Sacramento
and invest the capital, and, If it be necessary.
we will camp there month.
"why, Grover Cleveland has not yet recoV-
cred from our onslaught"
General Kelley's plan, as outlined at the con-
clusiOn of his address, was that Industrial COM
panies be at once organized TO march upon the
State capital IN the spring and try what can be
obtained in the way Of redress from the Legis-
lature.
The general said be was going at once TO
organize companies, 81 expect TO be arrested
and houndedIday by day when l begin work on
Oakland street corners but work Will, and
succeed l will"
1t was urged that going into camp might lis
enfranchise voters by taking them out of their
pTeciBcts, This, it was said, was just what the
meneyed parties most desired 20 see.

port was current that large number of troops
had arrived and there was much speculation
over it. An investigation, however, developed
the fact that the additional force consisted of
only ten men, who had been sent down from
Napa TO help do guard duty.
