KELLY'S ARMY COMING.
An Enthusiastic Greeting for the
Men at Nicola, la.
CITIZENS ANXIOUS TO AID THEM

Flags Flying from Every Farm House
Along the Line of March, while Crowds
at Every Cross Roads Express Heartiest
Sympathy.
nicola, Ia, April 23-Kelly and his In.
dustrial army ended their first days march
from Council Bluffs here at O'Clock last
evening and Immediately went into camp
in grove just east Of the town. The entry
into Nicola was a triumphal march AL
most every man, woman and child OF the
LOO inhabitants went out to greet the
army. Flags were borne, and the cheers
were lusty as the 800 men tramped down
the towns main street to the strains Of
two country bands. The stores and vacant
buildings Of this place were thrown wide
open, and the weary men were offered all
available shelter.
The start from Camp Weston was made
at O'Clock. Hundreds of people had gone
out from Council Bluffs and Omaha to
see the beginning of the long overland
march, and dozen wagons, heavily laden
with provisions, awaited the moving Of
the column. As soon as breakfast was
over and blankets strapped the companies
fell into line and in step with the ener-
getic humping of a bass drummer,
tramped down the hill upon which the
camp was situated, and the march to
Washington WAS begun.
The day was a perfect one and rapid
lime was made along the smooth, well
beaten roads. From every farm house
flags were flying, and at every cross road
lines of gaily decorated wagons and car
riages awaited the coming Of the army.
i
about noon, and a sumptuous repast was
served by the enthusiastic villagers. When
the meal was over and the impromptu
speeches done the march was resumed
amid the energetic cheering of the crowd
that was gathered. On every hand the
deepest sympathy for Kelly and his men
was expressed, and farmers and tovnsmen
were eager to supply the wants of the
Commonwealers. Neola is with Kelly to
a man, and the condemnation of the ac-
tion of the railroads in refusing transpor-
tation is as violent here as at Council
Bluffs and Omaha.
As an irOnical expression of the feeling
regarding the calling out of the Iowa
malitia the citizens here formed a COM
pany of little boys and girls to greet the
advent of the army, the badges and ban
ners OF the infantile brigade bearing the
inscription "Neola Militia" Throughout
the day there was no scene of disturbance
or disorder and the plan of seizing a train
has been abandoned The railroads enter
ing Council Bluffs will not however, run
trains in this vicinity until the army is
well off their routes
Today the Commonwealers are march
ing to Avoca, eighteen miles away, and if
promises made are fulfilled $50 wagons
will be provided for transportation. Gen
eral Kelly said last night that whether the
men ride or walk they will move steadily
forward for Des Mones There the army
expects to secure train for Chicago, and
at Chicago the men believe they will be
well provided with transportation to the

last evening with great hurrah and
went into camp. A colored man by the
name Of Nathan Diggs lives in the place,
and he cheerfully gave the division the
use OF the spacious lawn, barn and wagon
shed, which was called Camp Diggs.
When IL became known that the men

great crowds of people hocked to Herring

night, and efforts to recruit here will be
active as long as they remain.

issue was of minor Importance, but small
as it may seem or be this action proved
with all the force which would attend IL
in a matter of the greatest Importance
that the constituents of the minority
members can hope for no relief at the
hands of the Borough Council If the
majority members do not wish to give it
to them and that wish is dependent upon
the whim OF the hour.
This is entirely wrong and far from
what was expected of some Of the Demo
cratic members who declared that they be-
came Councilmen as representatives of
the people at large and not of any party
or clique. 1t is upon these members that
most Of the odium falls, because they
must bear the additional charge that they
lack the courage to stand by their con-
victions.
We sincerely hope, for the sake Of the
community at large and the majority
members in particular, that they will re-
alize the error Of their ways and be guided
hereafter more by the duty they owe the
people than that which .hey feel they owe
their party.

THE OALToNs WE'RE NOT IN IT.
OGioers Fired Upon a House in Which
Were Innocent Persons.


KANSAS CITY, Mo, April 23.-The Asso-
ciated Press correspondent at Arkansas
City, Kan, who was sent to Oklahoma to
secure the facts in the alleged encounter
between the United States deputy mar
shals and the so called Dalton gang, re-
ports that the stories of the wholesale
killing were untrue, and that the Dalton
gang were at no time in the fight. When
the firing began the Daltons were three
miles from the Miller house. on the ranch
of Ed Daune. When the firing was heard
the Daltons saddled their horses and es-
capped. From Monday afternoon until
Wednesday morning the Miller house was
closely watched by the officers, who fired
some eighty shots into the house and re-
eeived in return four shots from the Win
chesters of the occupants, which consisted
of the two Miller brothers, the wife of one
of the brothers, little girl and a German
hired man. Wednesday morning Mrs
Miller in company with the hired man,
went TO the barn and saddled two horses,
upon which the Millers escaped. On re
turning to the house the German was shot
through the heart. The little girl was
shot through the shoulder.
