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.

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.” PROFESSIONAL CARDS T. ARCHITECT AXD St’PltBnrrEXDXNT, ■AT- 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.

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.

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. ALLENS’ A 408 Jackson st.

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.” Fboh London come* tbe new, that tho steamship Fuerst Bismarck beat the record to Soutbompton, coming in 8 days, 12 boors and 58 minutes.
