In Col. Livingston’s letter to the
Gwinnett and Fulton county Alli¬
ances, which had endorsed him for
Governor, he thanked them for the
high compliment bestowed, but de
dined to make the race for that po¬
sition. In eloquent, ringing language
he beseeched his brethren to support
only true men for office, In conclu¬
siou he said: ‘I thank you, my
friends, whether of one county or
another, whether of one Alliance or
another, for your many kind expres¬
sions and proffers of support, touch¬
ing gubernatorial honors. I can not
close without thanking the manyciti
zens of Georgia outside of our order
who have so cheerfully and volunta¬
rily tendered their support in the
event I should have presented my
name before the democratic
for governor of Georgia. To
w ho have abused me and spoken evil
(){ tbe or( ] er or j ts purposes and plans,
I commend to your better
and consideration, the golden
■‘Do to us as you would have us
to you,” were you in our

COVINGTON, GA., JUNE 17, 1890
FOR CONGRESS.
At the request of many Democratic
citizens of the 5th congressional district,
joined by democrats from every section
of the State, and by Alliancemen, who
are democrats, from every county in the
State, I announce myself a candidate foi
the 52d congress, subject to the nomina¬
tion by the Democratic party. I will
appear before the public in each county,
and will state fully and plainly my views
all public questions affecting those
on National legislation, and if
interested in do
nominated and elected, promise to

Covington, Ga-, June 9, 1890.
TUB GRANT MONUMENT,
The proposition of a few southern
me n, while in Richmond at the im¬
veiling of the Lee memorial statue,
to ask the south to build a monu¬
ment to Gen-Grant, in New York,
is the most rodiculous and foolishly
absurd proposition that could have
been made by any sensible peoplo.
jL 111 / V| • — uhaolatcjy too
absurd to discuss.
If the proposed monument to Gen.
Grant in New York is riot built
until the southern peoplo erect it,
the monument will never bo built.
Gen. Grant was an able and suc¬
cessful military chieftain. IIo was
a hard fighter during tho war, and
wanted us to bavo peace after tho
■war was over, ILis magnanimity
and generosity toward the southern
people entitle him to their highest
respect and gratitude, but they do
not obligato them to rear a momi
ment to his memory. Their self
respect will not permit them to do
thftt.
If the memory of Gen. Grant is
* fT
building. The southern peoplo can¬
not do it and maintain their self-re-,
spect, and they aro not going to do
it.
Judge Stewart and the Farmers Al¬
liance.
The Sraiidoes not believe Judge Stew¬
art would intentionally speak of the far
mers alliance in a disrespectful manner ;
but we can hardly see how he expects
to make friends for himself among them,
or to take them away from Col. Liv¬
ingston by speaking of them as “sheep!’
The following is what he told the cor¬
respondent of the Columbus Enquirer
Sun, in Atlanta, last Monday :
XI IUC JTX I J 1 hvb a flock
of sheep, then Livingston stands some
chance of being elected. If not, he
doesn’t. I am confident that I can beat
him. At any rate, I am in the race to
stay until the last vote is counted. This
is a democratic district, and I believe
that the Alliance, at the last, will vote
like democrats and not like sheep.”

“About two years ago a pore eamo
on my nose. I called in a physician
who could arrest it only for a few
days w hen it would appear as bad
as ever. Finally it became perma¬

tention of several physicians it con
tinued to grow worse, tho discharge
from the ulcer being exceedingly of

when I commenced to take Swift's

after taking four large bottles of your

better than it has been in ten years.”
