"Adam Goodsel," q Jefferson cor.

idea in his head that democrats and
republicans are going to "fuse' on

II am a lifelong democrat, but

Elk Point ring l will vote the peo-
pies party ticket straight. Them
are my sentiments. The idea of q
lifelong democrat drinking out of
the same bottle with Ringsrud, Tai
colt, the Freemaas and Mallahan is
out Of the question:
Come now ADAM" according to
your own statement we have II right
to question your democracy. Didany
one ever hear OF a democrat refus-
ing to drink from my kind of a bot
tie? Mr.. "Goodsell." you have GER
tainly given yourself away"
Editor CoURIER.-Some good Ga.
marian who calls himself Adam
Goodsell, has seen fit to assail me in
the Leader of this week, and charges
that I was in Jefferson the first Of
the week (using his own language,O
in company with a bogus democrat,
and that l was there in the interest
Of fusion.
l want to say to the gentleman
who ever lie is that I went to JEFF
ferson alone and on business, aud
did not talk politics while there and
the charges are utterly false; he may
say marks l I'M a lawyer" but if
he was a gentleman and would write
his own articles he would stay nearer
the truth and not assert things that
he knows to he absolutely false, or
he knew nothing about it at all.
The gentleman that vas with me
had been in Jefferson fol some days

ture the assertion that he is q better

BLOODY CHOLERA RIOTS.
A Mob of Ignorant Russians Do
Battle With Troops.
Sixty Of the Rioters Killed and
Hundreds Wounded.

Private information from Tashkend,
town Of Asiatic Russia, in Syr-Darya, gives
the facts in regard to serious rioting there in
connection with the cholera epidemic
The native Sarts, believing the doctors
were poisoning cholera patients, determined
to put an end to the murderous practices
they imagined were employed. The widest
rumors were current of crueltles inflicted by
oh ysicians, causing the immediate death of
patients and these stories aroused the peo-
ple's fury to the highest pitch.
Five thousand Sarts suddenly invaded the
Russian quarter and wrecked the residence
of Deputy Governor Poutinstsof, who fed
on the approach of the bowling mob. His
flight was discovered and he was overtaken
in the street by an infuriated crowd, and
was shockingly maltreated. He pleaded for
mercy, but in vain.
Finally he was flung to the ground, and
after being trampled upon was stoned to
death. his features being mutilated beyond
recognition. The authorities took imme-
diate steps to suppress disorder and protect
other officials. A body of troops was hur-
ried to the scene under orders to adopt most
rigorous measures in dealing with rioters.
Arriving where the defiant Sarts were as
sembied the troops opened fire, killing sew
erai The Sarts, armed with pistols and
daggers and undaunted by the deadly fire,
made desperate resistance.
The two forces closed in on each other and
a furious hand-to-hand fight ensued, the
maddened Sarts, when their pistols were
emptied. slashing savagely with their daRgers
and doing much execution with those
weapons. The drilled and better armed sol
diers were unable to overcome their fanati-
cal opponents, but after being reinforced by
a body of Cossacks they succeeded in quell-
ing the riot.
The Sarts. not disheartened by repulse.

THE HOMESTEAD LOCKOUT.
An Estimate of What 1t Will Cost
All Concerned.

A dispatch from Homestead, Penn, says:
1.-THE great lockout at Homestead is just one
month old, and has already cost over ST..
900, 900 besides the sacrifice Of a hali-score
of human lives and serious injuries to manv
times that number. OF the loss in cash, the
military has cost in round figures $500 900,
the workmen have lost in wages $780,
600 and the Carnegies have spent and
lost as much more in getting new workmen.
The workmen at Beaver Falls, Duquesne and
the Union mills in Pittsburg have lost about
100000 in wages by their sympathy strike,
and the firm is out $780, 600 by the idleness
of these plants. Added to this will be the
county expenses for deputy sheriffs and
murder trials, the expense to tho city
for hunting Anarchists and to the Nation
for the Congressional investigation. An
other item of no mean significance is the loss
to workmen and manufacturers in plants
indirectly affected, which have been forced
to close down for want of material. The
locked-out workmen have not as yet been de-
prived of any of the necessaries of life, and
II the fight should last several weeks longer
there is no danger of the workmen's families
coming to actual want. Subscriptions have
been coming in literally and the relief work
has been carried on judiciously and well.
Every day people come to the Amalgamated
headquarters and receive orders for gro
ceries and provisions The funds already
collected VIII hold out Tor some time. The
people who are receiving aid are principally
those who received 81 40 day, the cheap
laborers, who left their places out of SYM
pathy for the members of the Amalgamated
Association"
