LIVINGSTON ALL RIGHT
One of the most noteworthy utter
ances recently made in that of Col. h. F.
Livingston, president of the state al
liance, in bis speech F lay night before
the Legislature umt the people at the
Capitol.
Whatever may have been the suspi
cion, from Col. Livingston's previous
utterances, that he w •« not sound in his
faith, even the most, skeptical must now
admit that there was no iquivocation or
uncertainty about his announcement
that he stood squarely within the party
lines of the Democracy.
While be will tight and work to have
the sub-treasury plan Incorporated in
the state and nation'd platforms, he
frankly announces that even if the sub-
treasury plan is not adopted, he Is still a
Democrat, and will bo ■ to tho will of
the majority, whether ids views are In
corporated or not. This is good honest
sqnaro doctrine; lie simply proposes to
do just os he would expect to bo done
by. If the state convention, composed
of a majority favorable : > the suh-treas-
oryphin, Incorporates that featuie in
the Democratic platfm in, all good Dem
ocrats even if opposed, must acquiesce
in tlie will of the majority; and Col.
Livingston will do just what he expects
others to do—staud on whatever platform
the Democracy of the slate adopts.
It may appear that 'lie colonel lias
been rather tardy In defining his posi
tion, and that like poor Tray lie was
caught in doubtful company for a sound
Democrat to bo found I’i, the Sfmpson-
Lcase Third party combination; but
better late than nut at all; and now that
his position is emphatically nnd plainly
sot forth—that there is no Third party
heresy in his creed—there Is no loDgor
any ground fur impugning his Democ
racy. ,
He is In for the war, and it Is to be
fought inside the party lines, come what
will.
In this respect there Is a marked con
trast between the positions o* Col. Lir-
ston and Tom Watson, the latter of
whom will •‘jump” the Democracy if
they don't accept his terms, even If he
finds himself in the minority.
Tug Times-Recoiiuku Is glad of the
opportunity to commend the position of
Col. Livingston as the president of the
State Alliance; for it seta at rest the
mooted question of a third party, in a
way that ought to he aatlsfaotory to
every true Democrat,
When Senator Bntler asked Tom|Wat-
son whether he would bol. the Demo
cratic party if it failed to accept the
sub-treasury pita, this Uessiah dodged
and said: "SuiBoient unto the day la
the evil thereof." Contrast this with
Livingston's speech Friday night, in
which be declared the Alliance would
etand with the Democratic party re
gardless of the success or dsfeat of the
Ocala plank. “We are for peace and
harmony," he said. “If w« can't get
our platform Inside the party we will
take yours. If we gain our point in the
convention, we ask you to stand by ua,
or if we ean't agree, let us get together
and devise something better than we
have yet conceived."
Tug Idea that prevails among many
people that a newspaper can run with
out money, and still enrloh Its owners,
leads the Uadisonian to remark: “The
present owners of the Uadisonian are
not working for the “glory" attached
to publishing a newspaper simply—wo
want tho money. Wo propose to give
the people agood paper, to run It on an
cheap a basis as possible, and then if tho
people will sustain us as they should,
wo may be able to make a living.
Without the “almighty dollar" no busi
ness can be carried on successfully; and
especially is it diflicult to run a newspa
per.”
The Times-Recorder has received a
pamphlet entitled “Information and Ad
vice Relating to Patents" from C. A.
Snow & Co , well known patent attor
neys of Washington, D. C. It contains
directions for procuring patents, and the
cost ef the same In the United States
and foreign countries, information about
the registration of trade-marlu, copy
rights, caveats and designs; also ab
stracts of court decisions in patent cases,
and much other matter of interest to in
ventors, patentees, manufacturers and
others interested in patents. It will lie
mailed free to anyone addressing C. A.
Snow A Co., Washington, D. C.
Tuc Mexican government has declared
the concession granted to Ellis and Fer
guson for the colonization of negroes in
Mexico forfeited on account of non-
. compliance with the contract.
Tna majority of the creditors of the
Moms Bras., of Montgomery, have sig
nified their desire to form a trust com-
“T- A meeting for organization will
i held on October 1.
On one street in Winterville, Ga , and
it is a very short one too, there are forty-
seven children, thirty-seven of whom are
boys. The number was reinforced last
week by another boy.
There is a rumor that another paper
will be started in Athens. There is a
demand for the telegraphic dispatches
that have been promised so often. The
rumor says that $25,000 can he raised to
start with.
From the way new goods are rolling
in it seems that the merchants are not
thinking of hard times, but expect a
fine trade this winter. In fact, the cr)
of hard times was only a great big buga
boo that we kept expecting, but it never
got this far. The outlook is bright in
deed to the farmers and merchants.—
Schley County News.
One day last week while Messrs Wood
and Dan Fouch were returning with a
pack of dogs from a cat hunt they came
upon a very large hawk eating a rabbit.
The hawk flew away very near the
ground and the dogs followed in pursuit
and caught and killed It, after a very
hard fight with the immense bird. This
seems to be an evident fact that the
Messrs. Fouch have very fast dogs to
catch a hawk flying.—Buena Vista Pa
triot.
Not satisfied with running a newspa
per at our own.expense, we have been
furnishing almost the entire town with
water for a week or more at considerable
expense for buckets and other necessary
apparatus used about a w ell regulated
well. It gouges the pocket where we
formerly kept our pocket ebauge, but
w e are here for the public good, and the
town shall have well water as long as
our credit is gdod for a well bucket.
Come aloug and take something.—Ca
milla Clarion.
Sir. Tkeophelus Davis, one of the
early settlers of this county, who is now
gliding down on the shady side of eighty
summers, has never ridden but one-half
of a mile on a railroad train, although
he has lived within fifty feet of the
track ever since it was built through
this county. When he heard of the
wreck Monday, he exclaimed: “Thank
the Lord I don’t ride on ’em. I got on
at the wood rack one time and rode to
the depot; a half mile and I would have
gotten off before I got to the depot, if I
could have stopped the blasted critter.—
Macon County Citizen.
SOUTHERN IMPROVE SI ENTS.
The Manufacturers’ Record of Sep
tember 10 says:
“The general business and financial
condition of the whole country contin
ues to improve, and the south must
necessarily share in this increasing pros
perity. The enormous exports of grain
for tho last two months, to which the
usual fall shipments of cotton will now
be added, have already turned the tide
of foreigu trade this way, and gold is
now being imported in large quantities,
with prospects of heavy imports during
the next few months.
“There are already signs of Improve
ment in the iron and the cotton
goods trade, while tho railroads
of the country are taxed
tbeir utmost capacity to handle their
immense traffic. The south has com
menced to feel the benefit of this change
from the depression of the last seven or
eight months which has existed all over
the world, and among the new, Indus
trial enterprises reported in this week’s
issue of the Manufacturers’ Record are
the contract at $302,000 for the power
house of the new cable road in Washing
ton; h $150,000 granite quarrying com
pany and a $75,000 brownstone company
in North Carolina; a $150,000 sugar re
finery company in Louisiana; a $100,000
cotton compress company to Greenville,
Miss.; a $30,000 distillery company in
Kentucky; a $50,000 lumber company in
Savannah; a $50,000 electric company in
Baltimore; a $100,000 coal and coke com
pany in West Virginia; a $50,000 water
works company in Orange City, Fla.;a
$100,000 phosphate company, Green
wood, S. C.; a $100,000 cotton seed oil
mill company in Alexandria, La.; a
$100,000 phosphate company in Florida;
a $20,000 land improvement company in
Macon; two $500,000 improvement com
panies in West Virginia; a $25,000 im
provement companies in Virginia; a
$50,000 ice manufacturing company in
Algiers, La., etc.
Southern manufacturing enterprises
have stood the strain of monetary strin
gency remarkably well, and the furnaces,
cotton mills and other industries are all
busy, and most of them are making good
profits even now, with an encouraging
outlook for a season of great prosperity
ahead.”

A company has been formed by Mr. E.
R Hathaway to build and put a new
boat on tbs liver to run to all points
below by the first of January. It Is to
about (13 feet long, 10 feet beam, and
double engines like the Montezuma.
The owners hope to have It ready in
time to catoh the guano trade in the
spring. The dredge boats are still at
work makinglmprovements on the river
between here and Warwick, and It Is in
fine floating condition. We have not
been able to And out the names of the
owners of the boat, though we are'told
that It Is tore to be built.—Montezuma

Mr. WB.. Moore, the pawnbroker,has
In bis possession a very old relic of buc
caneer daye. The object la a double
barreled shotgun about eighteen Inches
long. The gun was made by Messrs.
Williams A Powell, of Liverpool, Eng
land. The firms name Is engiaved In
very distinct letters on the upper barrel.
It Is said that the weapon was made In
the year 1807, thus making it eighty-four
years old. It bas an attachment on the
stock which makes It bandy to carry In
a belt. The stock is made of mahogany
and is mounted with silver. Mr. Moore
values this gun very highly and says
that he will send it to the World's Co
lumbian exposition in Chicago in 1802.—
Brunswick Timet.
The probability is that Columbus will
soon bare two new tribes of Red Men.
A list Is now being circulated for signers
to establish a new tribe in the city, and
the citizens of Rose Hill and East High
lands are talking strongly of organizing
a tribe In those annexes. These would
give Columbus four tribes. This order
now has about 800 members in tho city,
and is one of the, most popular orders
known here.—Colnmbus Enquirer-Sun.

Tux New York Sun is a strong anti-
Alliance paper, but it still indulges in
some complimentary remarks about tbe
alliancemon of tbe West. It says: “The
Alliance farmers of Kansas have not
taken the advice that was given them to
repudiate their mortgage indebtedness,
but are paying it up as fast as they get
the money for their jerops. Tbe statis
tics recently collected on tbe subject are
encouraging to all holders of farm mort
gages and pleasing to everybody who be
lieves in tbe honesty aud honor of the
farmers of tbe country. It is a sound
policy that tbe Kansas farmers are pur
suing in tbls respect, and It will redound
to tbeir advantage at once and here
after.”
