Columbus En9uirel-Sun: The latest ru-
NOR concerning Col Iivingstoais DO itical
aspirations is that he will b Il candidate

The allancemeu of McDudis county have
Endorsed the following candidates: S. A.
Walker. president OF the c ountv alliance,
for the House of Representatives, and C. II,
Ellington for senator from that district.
The announcement that Col Livingston

amuse the editors who have written him

| ment oa his congress Sionai aspirations has
not begun yet.
Columbus Eitqu ife,-SHa.: 1t is a little
early yet for the discussion OF local politlc 5
| to open up in earnest, but the subject is
| stated that Rev. j. b. X. Smith will he Il
| candidate for the legislature. and that IL n.
| G. y. Tisner aud Capt. S. z. Gilbert will
stand for reelection. The name of Judge
j. NJ Mcneil has been me ltioued in this
connection, and it is likely that his friends
will strongly urge him TO become q candl-
date. Certain local issues are likely to arise
early in the campaign. and Ii Is believed
| that the candidates will be calei upon to
! state just where they stand. One OF the
issues is likely to be over proposition to
have the marshal of Columbus elected by
the city council, instead of vote CT the
| people. This change can only be made by
legislative enactment.
