UNIoNTowN, Penn, April 2.-The
storm has broken and the scenes OF 1891
are being repeated throughout The coke
eglon tonight. The big coke works
are stopped with all the attendant riot
ing and destruction of property now IN
full force, The ranks of the strikers
have been so reinforced that tonight the
lowest estimates give them 100000 men.
Since last night the rioting has grown
steadily worse and today there were
more serious outbreaks. The men of
the Oliver works left I,500 tons of coke
burning up in the ovens. The company
attempted TO put some non-union men at
work, when the strikers set on them with
stones and clubs, driving them from the
grounds. The greatest outbreak was at
the famous Gill Farm NINE, near here,
Four hundred foreigners of the Cambria
works first visited the Humphry works,
and finding the men at work drove them
away under the muzzles of pistols.

He did not burn midnight oil, neither

He kept his faculties every day as near

ond Congressional District. 1t is
u we'll known fact that when Glib
son defeated Houk in the primary
certain democratic bosses in Knox
vile appealed tu Houk to run on
and promised him that they would
stand by him. Houk did not want
to acknowledge himself bolter, so
it was agreed that the committee
should count Gibson out and HOuk
in, so that HOuk could claim to be
the regular republican nominee.
This was done and now these
democratic bosses have had the

mittee to decline to put out dem.

Tile of the demodratic party do not
want to vote for HOuk, but their
vote has been promised him and

J. Bowers had said that he paid d,
NJ. Coffman $l25 to support (Bow.
ers) for sheriff and that Mr.. Ladd
had paid to CoffInan 5000 to support
him, (Ladd) for the same office. In
the first place we can't believe that
jeff Bowers told any such thing,
and in the second place if he did
tell 1t he told u falsehOod lin toto.
Mr.. Bowers never gave US a cent
to support him. And ifR. s. Ladd
who Is The sheriff elect, will say
that he ever mentioned money to
US in his race, we will give to John
H0uk and Dick Austin what little
property we have, leave the state
and never return. But this is in
keeping with their idea
of a campaign, to abuse
and vilify every man who will no,

TOM BURKE says "HOnors are

even just as many Houk votes
should have been thrown out as
there were Gibson votes. If this
had been done Gibson would still
have had q majority. But no that
was not what Austin's puppets
were there for. They were called

to organize "Houk- Evans clubs"
although Evans is the head of the

tried to put Evans behind him be-
cause Evans was much the ADLER
man and Houk was afraid the
people would find it out. They
have certainly found it out and
have put him at the head of the
ticket, even if Austin and HOuk
did fight him every step of the way
and now try to belittle him by
placing his name at the
tail end of the Houk club.

we have of this is the death of Miss

quietly departed this life August

who sorrow to know that she is ON

see our young friends taken from

bloom of youth. At the time of her
death she was Is years II months

gentle, tender, loving and kind.
She was sick a short time but bore
her Affections patiently. A short
time before she died she held out
her hand to the nurse and said
goodbye. The angel of death soon
came and laid his icy fingers ON her

HONEST democrats are getting
more disguised with Houk and his
methods every day while the dem
ocratic machine at Knoxville is
still grinding away trying to COM
pell good democrats TO support q
man who is being led around by
the nose by such fellow as Dick
Austin. Its as much to the best in
terests of the democrats to have an
able man to represent the distric,
in Congress as it is to republicans
and many of them say that al
though they prefer to vote for a
good democrat they can never sup
port Dick Austin and his Ala
bama methods for Congress. East
Tennessee democrats are too indi-
pendant to let the Knoxville ma
chine drive them into endorsing
by their votes, such fraud as has
been committed by Austin and his
tools.
