PUBLISHED a EVERY THURSDAY AT p NEWVBERRY. S. C. g A DAZZLING SCHEME. The Twine Tr'ust's Proposition to the Far- S iners-Secret Conclave With Alliance V Leaders-A 810,000,000 Supply Agen- t cy, with Branches, Suggested, r To Ba Presented to the Alliance. _ a NEW YORK, July 14.-In a secret conclave of representative Farmers' b Alliance men from all parts of the a country, held recently at an out-of-the way hotel in the vicinity of this city, there was concocted a daring financial and commercial scheme which it is f intended to propose to the farmers of the country, and which rivals in its j character and magnitude the sub- t treasury scheme. t Measures began to be taken in March 1 to get together a sufficient number of 1 the leaders in the Alliance movement < to give the project an effective paren tage, and they were attended with sucn c success that over thirty of them were I brought together in this city, June 2'- , The scheme was the joint invention of f H. H. Balch, secretary of the National t Cordage company (by which the Twine I and Bagging Trust is incorporated) and t Oswald Wilson, president of the Farm- s ers' Alliance exchange of this city, c both of whom hope to secure pleasant a offices in the projected reorganization. s Mr. Balch, it is said, presented to the l, corporation of which he is the secretary such an alluring picture of the advan- s tages to be gained by connection with i the scheme that it undertook to pay a the expenses of the proposed meeting c and the traveling hotel expenses of the e people attending it. Mr. Wilson can- c vassed the South and West in person in the interest of the project and se lected the men to be invited to come in on the ground floor. When all things were ready and the list had been made a sufficiently influential in appearance to suit the concocters, notices were sent to the selected individuals to meet at the Astor House in this city, Sunday, June 21. Nearly every invitation brought its man, but a few of the schemers went to another hotel instead of the one ap pointed as the general rendezvous and thereby nearly gave the scheme away. They were corralled by the leaders, however, and escorted with other-del egates to Crede's South Beach Hotel, on the bay shore side of Staten Island, a where the conclave was held behind r closed doors. A GOODLY GATHERING. s Besides Balch and Wilson the fol- d lowing men were present at the meet- I ing: Col. W. Peek, of Georgia, presi- a dent of the Georgia Alliance executive t] committee ; C. W. Macune, editor of ti The National Economist of Washing- c ton, chairman.of the National Alliance n executive comm'ttee and father of the is notorious sub-treasury scheme ; D). F. S Allen, of Hornellville, N. Y. ; J. F. u Tillman, of Tennessee ; Rev. J. A. tl Sligh, of Newberry, S. C., an Alliance e member of the South Carolina Legisla- c ture ; W. WV. Holland, of the National o Cordage company ; S. Otho Wilson, of u North Carolina; J. J. Rogers, of Vir- p ginia, Frank J. Claypole and M. D. tl Coffeen, of Kansas ; A. E. Sprague and George A. Gowan. of Tennessee ; tl George G. Cross, c' Pennsylvania ; a John M1. Massay, of Thomasville, Ga. ; b C. E. Hamlin, from the West (Nebras- ir ka, it was thought); A. Wardall, of h South Dakota; George F. Garther, of o1 Birmingham ; business agent of the Alliance for Alabama ; A. E. Cole, of J Florida ; J. A. Wickman and William Dehon, of Florida, M. Barbee, of Ken- c tucky ; A. T, McIntyre, of Thomas ville, Ga., who expects to be the-gen- tl eral Southern manager; J. T. Crawford, P Dallas, Tex. ; T. A. Clayton, of Louis- P iana ; one McIntyre, a lawyer of b Thomasville, Ga., brother of A. T. Mc- r4 Intyre ; W. H- Worth, of Raleigh, State d business agent of the Alliance in North h Carolina, and G. H. Peck, an attache t< of the National Cordage company, as- it sistant to Boss Balch. There were two or three others wvho P did not register at the South Beach Hotel, but who attended all the meet ings, returning to their hotels in this city at night. Among them was a representative of the Alliance in Ohio and one from Chicago-. The meetings were held in the main s dining room on the second floor, which t looks out frm a broad piazza over the Atlantic. The Chicago man, whose name could not be ascertained to-day, was elected chairman. Meetings were held Monday night, nearly all day Tuesday and Wednesday -morning' r June 2.2, 23 and 24. Nearly all the persons attending remained at the South Beach hotel throughout the three days. The National Cordage company is said to have footed tihe bill.. A D)AZZLING SCII EME. The scheme~ which Balch and Wilson launebed upon the meeting was for a national organization of Alliance stores and exchanges throughout the coun try, wvith a national headquarters in this city, a principal branch establish ment in Chicago, state central ex changes in every State, district organi zation in every Congressional district a and county, and city exchanges wher ever feasible. The object was to con trol the trade of the Alliance members, selling to them on the co-operativec plan through the local exchanges everything they should ever wish to buy at a slight advance on the whole sale prices ; thbe head office to pay for chand- - ohandle the sur pus prouuets of the farms for the arers, and to act as bankers for them whenever. The branch headq~uarters at (Chicago were designed as a main source of sup-i ply for pork, lard, tiour and other pre visions, and for some kinds of agricul tural implements, wagons and furni ture. From Newv York, or through the agency there, it was designed to make all necessary purchases'in a wholesale way, of machinery, boots and shoes, clothing, hats and caps, sewing machines, harness, carpets, oil cloths, fertilizers, hardware, dry goods, medicines, weapons, books, and such other stuff as could not be obtained to But this gigantic scheme could not e floated without substantialcapital nd without the general acceptance nd co-operation of the members of the Llliance. The National Cordage corn any stood ready, provided it was iven exclusive privileges in the sup ly of cotton bagging and binder twine > the Alliance exchanges, to lend sub .antial financial assistance to the ,heme, and some of the promoters ,ere very ready to accept its proposi :on. Bnt Colonel Peck, of Georgia, afused to countenance any such iron lad agreement. He was willing to rrange with the Twine Trust to pay a own price for such of its cotton aggiug and twine as the members nd exchanges might want; but he iad recently investigated a new kind >f cotton bagging of which he thought rery favorably, and he not propose to >e bound so that he could not buy some i he wanted to. Enough of the others oined him to prevent the consumma ion of the little $10,000,000 scheme of he Twine Trust. Finally it was pro >osed to effect a corporate organization mnder as favorable legal cauditions as ould be obtained-and the New Jer ey law regardling corporat'ons was onsidered quite sufficently accom nodating-with a nominal capital of ,t least $10,000,000, A system of pre erred proprietary shares of this class o te apportioned among the present >romoters, and to be nonassesaole, paid ip and everlasting. These shs.res only hould be represented in the governing >rganizations. Then there was to be .n issue of common shares which hould be open to subscription by the Dcal exchanges and their ifldividual aembers, upon which the directors hould levy assessments as recessary a order to provide funds for tie trans ction of business of the central ex hange. But the holders should be ntitled to no share of the government f the institution. THE PLAN TO BE PUSHED. The scheme as set forth was gen rally acceptable, and some of the pro aoters were for having it immediately pproved and put in operation ; but 'olonel Peck and Messrs. Gowan and ,arther were opposed to such a sum 2ary proceeding. They were appar ntly unable to satisfy themselves of be wisdom of the scheme and would ot consent to have anything to do rith it until it had received the ap royal of the Alliance through its arious channels of expression. Accordingly the scheme was formu ited in a glowing prospectus, in which be name of the institution was quoted s the National Alliance Union and ?solutions were adopted calling upon Le State exchanges to submit the ,heme to the judgment of their subor inate district and county exchanges. 'he resolutions further provide that if, nd when a sufficient number of Lie subordinate exchanges, speaking arough their respective State ex banges, approve the plan, the chair ian of the South Beach meeting shall sue a call for a national convention of tate delegates to consider and form late and finally adopt and organize re scheme. Secret circulars to this mfect have been sent to the State ex Langes of every State where there is ne to be found. The distric~t treas rers are being quietly educated to the Ian and will presently go out among 2e alliances to boom it along. Alluring promises of cheap prices to 2e farmer, high prices for his produce ad long dividends on the sh-ares will e expected to buy, to provide "work ig capital" for the proprietary share olders, will Lbe the inducements held at to him. ahn Quickly Externporized i~ve Tow Baga, This is a meaningless sentence, but it >ntaing all the letters of our alphabet.

TERRY M'F'G CO., NASHVILLE, TENti. / The Liver When out of order, involves every organ of the body. Remedies for some other derange ment are frequently taken without the least effect, because it is the liver which is the real source of the trouble, and until that is set right there can be no health, strength, or comfort in any part of the system. 1ercury, in some form, is a common specific for a slug. gish iver; but a far safer and mere effective medicine is Ayer's Pills. For loss of appetite, bilious troubles, consti pation, indigestion, and sick headache, tltese Pills are unsurpassed. "For a long time I was a sufferer from stomach. liver, and kidney troubles, expe riencing much difficulty in digestion. with severe pains in the lumbar region and other parts of the body. Having tried a variety of remedies, including warm baths, with only temporary relief, about three months ago I began the use of Ayer's Pills, and my health is so much improved that I gladly testify to the superior merits of this medicine." Manoel Jorge Pereira, Porto, Portugal. "For the cure of headache, Ayer's Cathar tic Pills are the most effective medicine I ever used."-R. K. James, Dorchester, Mass. 'When I feel the need of a cathartic, I take Aver's Pills, and find them to be more effec tive than any other pill I ever took."- Mrs. D. C. Grubb, Burwellville, Va. I have found in Ayer's Pills, an invalua ble remedy for constipation, biliousness, and kindred disorders, peculiar to miasmatic localities. Taken in small and frequent doses, these Pills Act Well on the liver, restoring its natural powers, and aiding it in throwing off malarial poisons." - C. F. Alston, Quitman, Texas. "Whenever I am troubled with constipa tion, or suffer from loss of appetite, Ayer's Pills set me right again."-A. J. Kiser, Jr., Rock House, Va. " In 1858, by the advice of a friend, I began the use of Ayer's Pills as a remedy for bil iousness, constipation, high fevers, and colds. They served me better than anything I had previously tried, and I have used them in attacks of that sort ever since."- H. W. Hersh, Judsonia, Ark. Ayer's Pills, PREPARED BY DR. J.

A pretty face and a captivating man 2er in a girl are better than riches, or, it least, fully as good. A perfect trea ure in pink gingham got on to a Broadway car, and immediately all the nen forgot their newspapers. She was is soft and fresh as a rose, and seemed .o have the fragrance of one in her >rown curls. The conductor of the car aad red colored hair and malignant yes. To him the fair young woman landed a dime. The conductor looked it the coin as it lay on his grimy palm tnd handed it back to the girl. "That's no good," said he. "It's ,unched." "It's what?" asked the girl, glancing t the piece of money. "It's punched. It's got a hole in t." "Ah, so it has. Don't you like coins hat have holes in them?" "No, I don't. We don't take 'em.' "You don't take them?" raising her iolet eyes to the conductor's facc. He 1ad not noticed her beauty before. As e looked on her somne of the malignant ight faded out of his eyes. "Well, you didn't punch the hole in t, did you?" he said. "Oh, no," replied the girl. "I am orry that the hole is there." "Of course you are. WVell I suppose, niss, we must bear and forbear with ach other in this world." "That is very true. WVe must do to thers as we would be done by." "Exactly. And if I was to get on a ar and didn't have anything but a >unched dime, I'd--" "Now, I shouldn't be surprised if rou didn't have only this dime with "That is all I have." "Well, if I change the dime for you Lnd give you two good nickles you can ive me one nickel back, and I can pay .bat into the companf for your fare. I mow a beer saloon where they don't nake any question about punched m, and I can get rid of the dime here." "Oh, that's so good of you. Thank ou. Why, how very nice- I'ml sure. 3y the way, could I trouble you to ien this window at my back? Thanks. like fresh air." A flower fell from a bunch that she yore at her throat, - and the conductor tooped to secure it and return it to "I think you may keep that," said he.beauty, with a. smile that made the oung man giddy; "or,if you don't want t, you might throw it away for me. he stem is so short I shouldn't be ,ble to pin it to my dress ngain." The conductor, blushing like a peony, ould make no'more conversation. He ithdrew to his platform, andl stood here is a daz"d way sniffling at the tower that had been lately at the girl's broat. WVhen the victorious maiden lighted at Forty-second street the river, who had been aware of the pisode by hearing the remarks through he open door, turned and called brough the car to the conductor: "Clancy, you make me tired." But Clancy only pressed the flower :his nose, and said: "Go on! You idn't see her eyes." Thousands have b)eed relieved of in igestion and loss of appetite by a sin le bottle of Ayer's Sarsaparilla.
