Big Alliance Meeting at Silver.
SI~vsn, Oct. .-For dt least a month pre-]
parations were on foot to induce the plant
ers to arrange so that some ccntral point, on t
he C. S. & N. R. Ri., might be named for*
recting a warehouse to store cotton. That
atter was settled to-day. The very liil-eral
ffer of Mr. J. J. Ragin, soliciting agentfo
he railroad, induced the different Alliances
o consummate th'at end. A large number
f citizens, as well as Alliance men, met te- I
ether at Silver, and with the aid and smiles
f lovely womer,, it proved one of the most
nteresting occasions it has been our happy
ot to witness. The day was one of unusua:
appy sunshine, after so much cloudy and
rainy wveather. A more lovely sun had
:ever risen. A more social coming together
was never enjoyed, a picnic and dinner of
he rarest kind. We regretted to learn of so
much misunderstanding, nevertheless it.
was a success. It makes us feel proud that 1
ur people fully intend to maintain the
losest unity, and make the Alliance what
t was designed to be.
The meeting was called to order, and Mr. I
ames E. Davis elected chairman. Tr. A..
Way was made secretary. On taking the .
hair Mr. Davis requested the Hon. James
E. Tindal to state the object of the meeting. I.
Mir. Tindal said this pienic was gotten up I
by the Calvary Alliance, that some mutudl
greement might be made with other Alli
aces to erect a warehouse at Silver. Hie
made due apologies for the absence of Mr'.f
Stackhouse; also, for President Stokes, ofs
teState Alliance, who expected to be pres
nt. He made one of his most elegant
speeches.
Mr. Rtagin, who represented tihe railroad,
stated that they would give receipts for and
store cotton, and hold said cotton as long as
he people so desired.
Mr. Keels, of Manning, endorsed Mr.
indal's speech in full. He believed such a
ourse adopted, to build a warehouse, would
ring lasting benefits to the planter.
Mr. B. R. Gibson fully concurred, also, in
he proposed railroad storage till a wvare
ouse could be built.
Mr. J. H. Mahoney made a clear and I
orcible argument against the loss of weights e
n cotton, wvhich warranted every one pires
nt to look his interest squarely in the fae.
Mr. H. S. Briggs propo. ed a very legiti-.
nate plan to pay out all mone~ys due thea
erchant on liens, when the cotton was sold 1
t the warehouse.
A committee from each Alliance repre
ented was appointed to devise and formu
ate some plan to be adopted, to conform to
he railroad's request, as followvs:
Calvary-J. E. Tfinal, 'T. A. Way. *
Howe Branch-C. R. F. Baker.
Silver--B. R. Gibson-.
Jacks Creek-S. P. Fairy.

Mr. J1. J. itagin was added to the commit
The committee reported the following
esolutions, which were adopted by a rising
ote:*
Resolved 1st. That Friday of each week be
dopted as Alliance day at Silver, for the
purpose of selling cotton.
2d. That all persons are requested to take
heir cotton to Silver at the appointed day,
whether white or colored, wvhether members(
f the Alliance or not, and sell only that(
ay.
3d. That our thanks are hereby tendered
o the authorities of the C. S. & N. R1. It. for
greeing to receipt for cotton, and hold it I
without charge until that day.
-ith. That Friday the 10th is appointed as
irst market day.
5th. That those present are uirged to use
their best efforts to concentrate as much
otton as possible that day in ord.-r to en- i
ourage the enterprise; that the Calvary,t
Home Branch, Silver, Jacks Creek, and 'JelY
