It Looks Like s Put-Up Job Dons Injurs L- P. Livingston-Who Perpetrator—Alliance Music. Speelsl to Records*. AtlantafcOoi. 30.—Ths Living ston political letters are Jnet now getting In form, I believe, where they een be handled Intelligently by the average outsider. Two things u aw are demonstra ted: The letter# against L. F. Liv ingston woreorlglually Inspired, not actually written, iu Atlanta! Ga., and not In the State of New York. The signature of John Liv ingston, president of the New York Btate Alliance, Is genuine. In other words, John Livingston knowingly perpetrated a wrong and a libel, uudor tho direction oertaln parties here In Atlanta, stating what they all knew to false, with deliberate Intent to In ure both L. F. Llvingstou and tbe railroad interests iu Georgia. Tbe Atlanta parties were enemies to Livingston aurl the alliance; and to Pat Calhoun and tbe railroad In tereata. Livingston and Calhoun, remember, are both regarded In oertaln quarters as probable candi dates for the senate. Beyond any reasonable doubt, and to the extent of a moral car talnty, this ought to fix th# origin of the lie. It Is the same hand that hasfqrced an Issue between Gordon and the alliance, that has Injected all this needless venom mod personality Into the campaign, and that has#dl along been so vin dictively and unreasonably oppos ed to the railroad Interests of Geor St*- One more thing: If Johu Livingston's signature Is genuine, It remains to be proven that be is capable of lying In order to exonerate L. F. Livingston That he Is of a lying calibre and kind, Is shown lu these letters, tbs ORIGINALS of whloh are now In Atlanta: TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN. While striving for reformation all along the line, and demanding, among other things, a free ballot and a fair count, yet, at the earneet request of Colonel Leonidas F. Liv ingston. president of tho Georgia ibfiiuu. ihciiudui ui wi* uawrps Buts Alliance, endorsed by Us con vention, and by other southern sUt# Alliances, whose orders I am (edged tf> obey In the matter of tbe m pending election bill, J hereby promise to oppose the same— reserv ing, however, tbe privilege of changing my vlewa In case satis factory proof shall be presented of such unlawful Intimidation, vio lence end fraud against alliance men In theae states at the Novem ber election, as shall afford un doubted cause for Its passage. John Lininostox. Aocompanplng tbs original copy of this article was tbe following pri vate letter to Colonel Livingston from John Livingston: Office: op tiik Ktatk Farmers* Alliance, Campvillr, N.

Your Intimation that I might sueh a fool as to deliver any address at Aylsota without first submitting the same for tbs revision of your committee, Is humiliating; but the hurry of your affairs may explain the contradictory statements some of your letters, which mi| otherwise be deemed to evince tentlonsl deception.

I am quite confident that tbe evi dence as to the origin of tbe origin al campaign documents will in few days be sufficient to convict In a court of law.
