the executive committee OF the state alli-
ance in calling upon the suballiauces to
withdraw their Endorsements of the third
party hes been published throughout the
state. The Bellevue alliance of Richmond
county has acted on it as follows:
We, noting in the Augusta Chronicle OF this
date the action of President L. F. Livingston
and a part of the executive committee of the
state alliance, charging the sub aud county or
ganizatons with gagging their members in
their political freedom, declare that in the
many hundred resolutions received by us from
the different alliances, none were dictatorial,
but to the contrary, speak boldly for independ-
ent political action allowing to every one per-
feet political freedom, wherein we are In har-
mony with our constitution and the action of
the supreme council. But President Livingston
is stumplng the state in the interest
of the Democratic party. and using every
means he can contrive to disrupt the alliance
and defeat the peoples movement, thereby
showing that he is guilty of the charge which
he seeks to lay at our doors; therefore be il
Resolved By Bellevue alliance, in regular ses-
sion assembled, that we reaffirm the action
heretofore taken by US as to our political
course.
ResOlUed That we again denounce Hon L.
f. Livingston for betrRying his trust an not
having the honesty or msnliness to resign a
position which he continues to hold only to In
jure those who have honored and exalted him
Resolved, That we favor a called session of
the state alliauc3 at once to depose him and
elect president who is honest and true.
Resolved, That We request our brethren to
unite with us in calling together the state alli-
ance for this purpose.
