Death Of Gel J. w. Livingston.

Colonel J. W. Livingston, n former citizen
OF this village, died ut his home an seneca
City, last Wednesday afternoon, aged 81 years
Cot Livingston was the brother OF our re-
spectrd townsman, Mr.. j. r. Livingston. lie
lived kr Abaevilse Nnut 1858 or iS,a, when ne
married Miss Fitzpatrick, of PendletOn. ana
became citizen OF Oconec county. Col liN'
tngSton was always n public spirited citizen
ant ever allied with the best interests of the
ing out of the war, he was prompt tn respond
to the call OF his country, and did faithful ser
vice as Captain of a company and was alter
wards promoted to Colonel OF Orr'S Regiment
until his falling health prevented him rom
CON iimuiBg longer in the army
Colonel Livingston was the founder oi the
iSeneca Free Press. His ability, his honesty.
sud his inst appreciation of thc reSpoRslWll-
ties of editor was notable among his breta-
rem, and no man in their ranks possessed Il
grentrr love xHd respect OF his fellows than
Press.
Colonel LivingSton'S popularity Is at'ested
In the fact that he was elected member Of the
House OF Representatives., and afterwards
elected State Senator. In whatever station
ne occupied he has an honorable record.
Whether at home. or in the army, or la the
Legislative halls or in the editorial sanclum,
or in the councils oi the church, he was al
wnvs directed by an intelligent conscience.
and was ever true TO the people who looked
to him for proper discharge OF any OF the
many high and important trusts which hau
been confdcd to hini.
In the death of Colonel Livingston, his fam
lily has lost Il devoted husband and fnthcr, the
community nas lost good and useful citizen,
the church has lost faithful anu earnest
worker.

Our Consrcssmen and Their Salaries.

When member dies his pay ceases On tho
day OF his death. The salary of the successor
commences the day after the decease of tho
former member, though the election may not
occur for several months. The new member,
in other words, draws pay for time hc never
served. A member is allowed twenty cents
mileage each way, or forty cents n mile ono
way, and lie can check for tho full amount Of
both trips when he takes his seat. He is al
lowed 1925 a year for stationery: Tho most
Of this sum is pockcted. The members draw.
their money in different ways There are
probably twenty Of tho present house who let
their salaries run into hest eggs. There arc
q couple of dozen members who always. over.
draw, or rather, borrow from the head Of the
bank. They borrow or get in advance sums
ranging from $40 to $500, and ut the end OF
tho month they have nothing. The great
majority of the members draw all that IS
coming to them at the end of each month,
particularly those who have their families
with them. Some of them never SEQ an out
side bank, but let their monthly salaries re-
main; and draw it out III small sums Others
take out their salaries and place them In
other lanks. But this is not dono as much rs
formerly 4 number of them got caught in
tho Middleton bank that broke somo tfmo
ago: Most Of the members do all their 1inan
cial business over the counters of the Con-
grcssional bank, and some Of them pile
checks up as high as $4,000 i'll q single ses-
