The ceremony took plare in the Baptist t hurch which had been mo-t beautiful ly and appropriately decoratod for the happy occasion.

Hair, Secretary The Stale Alliance Bank, -c; ^ The ftdlqwing address is one of great interest to the Alliance of this Mate. It will, be published In the Cotton Plant, but by the courtesy of henatoV .Stokes a copy of the address is here with sent and is as foflows: To the Members of the Farmers* Alli ance of Mouth Carolina—Dear Br* th- ren: Tim frus^e stockholders of the State Exchange .of the Farmers’ Alli- ^nce itave decided to locate the State Exchange in the city of Columhia ami t eonnection therewith to establish a mers’Alliance hank*.. - r AYter careful cousiderallon and thor ough invfistigation of the plan under which the .State Exchange was Organ ized it has been decided that there is nothing in said plan ant:ig0nisii'e |o investing the capital stock in a hank to be controlled and used in connection therewith. - • • Arrangements have been made to ap ply Tor a charter tor the bank,, and to open books of subscription to its cap tal ‘ r lt fOthe intention to mal.c it what its mime tmpoils, tlie TTirTneis' Alliance Hank, to be owned and con trolled by the members of riic Fanners’ Aliian <*e, w kh the - nmhwstaufhng that t4»e ivTrtnnuH fit minniT a eoTUtVTrTTi.g- imlividuai -member* of Alliaiiee ami interest. All the Alliance, the' State County Alliances, in possesion-of snr- plu* lui^is, are asked, and even urged, to subscribe to its capital stock. At a meeling.of the trustee stockhold ers held in tlie city of Columbia, on the bth and 11 tli lnsA M tlie undersigned were appointed a Committee fo issue an address to the Aliiame membership calling their attention to the fact* sta ted ami to urge himui them the prompt payment of the balance of stock due tlie State Exchange. The State Exchange was organized under most discouraging circumstan ces. Only one.fourth of the suhserihed stock wu* called for, ami this could not be used only as a basi* of commoicial rating. The board of director* were instructed t«» begin buslues* and tJiu« enter tlie commercial field in w hich there is no much ability, experience and sharp competition, and this without a dollar save a small amount as interest on that part of stock paid iu. Everything was new and untri.Hl. Opposition met them at every turn. Wholesale dealers and manufacturers regarded tlie movement in its proper light ns an «X|»eri»iciit and acted to ward* it accordingly. The days were dark, as well as the nights, and ou tlines it seemed as though tlie enter prise would have to be abandoned. Expenses and debt* accumulated day after day and it**eemed almost impossi ble at one time that we should ever be able to. meet our. obligation*. We thought seriously of asking the State Alliance to help us over our financial difficulties. But during all these dark days there wag one thought that inspired us, it was tlie faith we had in the loyalty qf t!icv AUiftnce membership, as ! * sliest anchor to our heart*. This gave hope him! promises of a brighter future. That future came ami with it came light ami joy. All is now bright before us. The imr lest, battles have fought:, the d.ii ive-t da\.s.bavc paa&ful away ami unU same Toyimv to this good eau-e on tlie part of the hienihership of the Alli- nnee will, we believe, make the Ex change wjiat it is intended to he, a means of saving to every Aliiam e man sonieef the profits on articles produced ami s dd by him, of cheapening arti- edes porcha-cd by him, mid of reducing rue rate of interest on money borrowed by him. Let each member of the Alliance In paying his dues to the Exchange take into the account tlie probable and pos sible.benefit* to accrue tu him in this business, and see if it does not promise to be the hot inve.-tuieiit made hv him. Much credit is due the State manager for the success attained by the Ex change. In fact lie has done tlie hard- st work and lias eonH> in direct con trast with tlie many dililculties ami great opposition to the enterprise. Leaving his ow n business, and w ith a sal a ry contingent nn thw s ueee ^s of the work, he is deserving of tlie confidence and esteem of every Alliance man in the State. The business is growing, and our manager with those of other States are now arranging to act togeth er or in concert with each other w hen- ever this can he done advantageously to the Alliance membership. What a power and lulluence is this for the elevation, training and tin a n- ciftl success of tlie farufers of our coun try. Li t ns see to it that our State Ex- iiangesiiall not be behind others. With the 7u per cent, of unpaid stock to the Exchange, amPvvith a subscrip tion from other Sub-Alliances which have not as yet fcubscrilu d, the State Exchange can put into the, hank lift\> tive fTr sixty thousand (foliais, and the capital stock of said bank from individ ual Alliance subscriptions, with what County Alliances and tlie. date Alli ance may do^-aii easily l»e rnn to one hundred thousand dollar.*. Now tjtop to think,what a vast banking business can be run on such a capital, ami what a power tins w ill be in promoting, di rectly and indirectly, the interests of the farmers of theStaUv The State Exchange must have sal aried officer* and employee* to do its frf'Tmxt January to perfect ar rangements tor establishing the Farn - era' Alliance Bunk, and it i« of vital importance that every cent of *ub- sci ibod stock should be paid in on or before that lima. ^Brethren, the suc cessful operation of UmState Kxciiauge of the Farmer*’ Alliance of South Car olina depend* in a great measure upon the proiqpt payment of this stock. Can wo not hope that tills will fie done, and that other Sub-Alliances who have done nothing In thi* direction will in like mhtirter send in their *ubseriptio.ha? T he State Exchange, desiring^ to be Just to Sub-Alliances in it* connection, at iu meeting In Columbia unanimous ly adopted tlie following resolution : Resolved, That Sub-Alliance* which have subscribed two or more shares of stock to the .'■'tale Exchange and have paid a part of the *ame, and have since making *uch payment been reduced in membership below kbe constitutional number upon which said subscription wa* based, that all Sub-Alliance* shall have the benefit of such reduction in membor-hip and feed ye credit from the State Exchange on their stock for any amount thus overpaid. - At the meeting to be held on the 28th of January, 1890, not only will the banking busities* be disoussed, but this will be discussed in connect km with the future managenn nt of the State Ex change, and it i* highly probable that many changes will be made in the rule* which have heretofore governed tlie management of tlie Exilnmge. The whole business w ill be discussed, nml an effort will be made to rea* h the wisest conclusions. Let every meiiiser of t he Alliance regard the subject as” one in which he is-most deeply interes ted and send in such suggestion* to the meeting as will in Ids opinion most likely Had to the best results. But, over and beyond every other 'coiisideratioii,^et every .true aiid loyal member of the Alliance put forth his host etlorts iu seeing that the money due the State Exchange from the Sub- AHittfice* be promptly paid and report- ■Master’s Sale.
