BULLET AND DAGGER
Four Men Killed in a Drunk
en- BraWl.
1t Occurred in a Dsorderly House Kept by a
French Woman in the Mining Town
of Windber
(By the Associated Press.)

Johnstown, Pa, April 16.-Four persons
are dead and two are dangerously wound
cd at the mining town of Windber, near
here, as the result of a drunken row in
a dsorderly house there last night One
Italian is charged with the wholesome
crime but it is believed that he is al

man answering his description was
ground under a train at South Fork this
morning. The dead are:
JOHN HALVERSON, a Swede.
ED. p. MCAULEY, an American.
GUST GRIEYBACK, a Slav.
SAMUEL SHIVES, an American.
Some of these are the victims of re-
volver and some of the deadly stiletto,
the two wounded men, Thomas Kipling
and Jerk" Buckwalter, both being
wounded with the latter instrument.
The row occurred at the home of a
French woman known as Mrs. Stuck un-
til couple of weeks ago, at which time
she was married to an Italian. The

but no particular demonstration was
made until about 1915 o'clock last night
when man appeared at the door and
cried that he had been stabbed, ran few
steps and then fell over dead on the
street He was followed by second and
then third. The fourth man who was
killed, died in the house and the two
wounded men We're found there.
Mrs. Stuck and two other women who
were inmates Of the house are under ar
rest and the place is being guarded by
men with Winchesters. Various stories
are afoat as TO the cause OF the row, but
the women refuse TO talk. The town is in
a state of wild excitement. Hundreds of
people surrounded the house and the
pools CT blood on the streets where the
men died.

corded the murderer if it proves that he
is still alive and if he is caught.

the most corrupt of Republican officials.

FRUITS OF REPUBLICAN RULE.
"They wrought more ruin in that two
years than was wrought in those
four years of blood and war. They spent
$50 OO0. 900 of dollars, they suspended the
writ CT habeaS corpus, men went armed
a reign of terror seized the land, bur-
glaries were of every night occurrence
strife everywhere, death by violence
walked abroad in the land, children were
molested and made afraid, while the wo-
men of the State were outraged. Under
these circumstances the people resolved
that these things must end. They formed
themselves into one mighty phalanX, went
to the POLLS and turned the Republicans
out With that event peace, like a be-
nign benediction, again settled over the
land. People stopped toting pistols, the
law stood sentinel by every mans side,
and within three years it was so disrepu-
table to carry gun that we actually
passed law making it a crime"
In most graphic language Mr.. Aycock
described the Wilmington riot, and its
causes.
This, he declared, was not an act
of rowdy or lawless men. 1t was the act
of merchants of manufacturers, of rail-
road men-an act in which every man
worthy of the name joined. 1t was a
time when men, for the protection Of
themselves and their homes, had to re-
sort to the old primal right of self-pro-
tecticn. Why in 1898 there were more
guns and pistols sold in North Carolina
than there had been before for twenty
years.
"Such are the fruits of Republicanism,
and such has been the cause of the down.
fall Of that party in this State
THE Republicans in the past four
years put on thousand negroes in office
in North Carolina, but it didn't matter
ii they didn't put single one in. It's
