Evanston, Wyo., April 13.-At midnight
last night Gen. Kelly's army of the CON-
monweal, which had encamped on the
plains of Utah, eight miles out of Ogden,
quickly broke camp and captured a Union
Pacific freight train made up of box cars
en- route to the mines. Gen. Kelly ut
once assumed command of the train load
of fcotsore and weary travellers. The en-
glneer and fireman obeyed orders as is
sued by the commandant, as they had
instructions to do so from Supt. Bancroft,
of the Mountain division, should one of
the trains in his division be captured BY
the industrial legion. The capture was
totally unexpected, although Supt. Ban
croft had predicted that such a move
ment would very likely take place on the
part of Gen. kenlly and his henchmen.
The march from Ogden was full of Incl
dent and excitement to the hundreds of
men who compose the army. There were

OF food, men with rheumatism, pneumo-
ma n the countless other things that
follow in the wake of starvation and pri-

sMACKs OF DEMOCRACY.


A small yet a significant thing has
cropped out since the Republican Con-
vention. It will be recalled, according
to certain Democratic papers, that a
few colored men, and no doubt men of
intelligence and honest convictions,
went before the committee on platform
and presented series of resolutions
which they desired adopted by the
committee. No one denies their right
to do this but the peculiar part now
comes in: If these colored men were
Republicans and in line with Republi
can work, why is it that these fesolu-
tions in full, and comments evidently
from the same source, were published
in Democratic papers? They were pub
lished in The Evening Journal, Every
Evening and the Dover Delawerean,
the latter making great display head
in its issue of last week, and besides
giving an account Of the meeting held
afterward, at which several resolutians
were passed, but to which, by the way,
no names were signed. Of course we
do not pretend to know the source from
which all this emanates, but taking all
the facts into consideration, Ie have
our suspicious that the whole thing has
a decidedly Democratic flavor.
