Fifteen Hundred Destitute Men H.rd.d
by Troops and Policeman
SIGHTS SAD AND AMUSING
A Remarkable Scene Witnessed
Around the Camp Fires-The
Railroads In a Pretty
Pickle.


West arc parading the streets and a strict
watch is kept over the Industrial army
men. Colonel Baker had an interview
with the governor in which he said he
hoped the citizens of Ogden would lend
their assistance in their cndeavors. In
reply the governor stated that while they
were here they would not suffer from
hunger or thirst, but the citizens had peo-
pie at home who required there assistance
and their beneyolence had already been
iully taxed. They must stay within their
confines while here and observe the laws.
The citizens would not pay their fares TO
any other place, and he thought the peo-
pie who sent them here had done wrong
and would ultimately have to take them
back.
The encampmcnt as il appeared last
night was n weird scene. Tho night was
exceptionally cold and the industrials felt
It keenly. They crouched in shivering
groups around their camp fires and quietly
demolished their ratious. Messrs. Scow-
croft q Sons supplied coffee, and as they
drank the warm beverage, it seemed 10
instil new life into them. Still 1t was n
pitiful sight. Ablebod!ed men bore ev!-
dcnccs OF the pinch of hunger and want
and those whose physical condition was
lest robust were indeed objects of pity.
Many were in almost filthy condition,
while others had made meager attempts
TO remove the stains of the trying and
tedious journey.
The men are quiet and peaceful. Their
only desire Is 10 reach their destination
with the least possible delay. The army
is made up of all kinds and classes, me-
chanics, machinists, painters, plumbers.
BARRIERS, hrakemen, engineers, iiremen,
laborers, tramps and other profession

There arc professional hoboes, but II
would be impossible 10 eliminate the lat
, ter element from such heterogeneous
| mass.
On the journey east. when near Lake,
Utah, n little girl was seen waving flag
on the track. When the train was pulled
up the girl stepped forward and presented
Colonel Baker with a small flag and a
note telling him to protect the flag. re-
