The State Alliance meet io Aiken t Wednesday and Thursday 25 and 26 ult., in annual session, with abo sixty delegates in attendance. Tbe most important work of the se sion was the resoluticn io regard -candidates and the expulsion of Lan <jaott for making unfounded charg< against Col. D. P. Duncan, Manag? of tbe State-Exchange. President Evans made a length address o o Wednesday. He came ot io plaio terms for the enforcement of a the Alliance demands. All candidate; who desire the support of the Alliacc most pledge themselves to support a .of the demands. The following is taken from th official report, aod includes the import -ant reputations : A resolution instructing the execn live committee of the State Alliance t submit the interrogatories fram- i b this Alliance at its last meeting ?o al candidates for Congress in this State an publish their answers in the State organ Urgent and cordial invitations wer extended from Lexington and othe places for the next meetiug of the ?tat Alliance, but Columbia was the mos favored place io this matter and th ?ext sesi?n of the State Alliance will b field in the capital city on the fourtl Wedoesday io July, 1895. A resolution was passed as follows "That we approve the general cours* of oor members of Congress who har* bean directed in their efforts for relie by Alliance policy." But express dee] regret and condemnation of their vot< opon the bill to repeal unconditional I j the tax ou State banks, as being i repudiation of the demands of the Alli ?nco upon the most vital question a issue." Messrs. W. A. Neal, of Anderson J. A. Sligh. of Newberry, D. S. Dun eau, of Union, T J. Cunningham, ol Chester, and W. il. Timmermau, ol Edgefield, were made a permanent com? mittee to take charge of the Cotton Plant and put it on a firm foundation, by re-orgaoizatioa and placing new men at the helm. This action was taken because of the fact that J. W. Bowden was impelled to give up its manage? ment ou account of ill-health, He bas given the utmost satisfaction in all his work and the Alliance regrets very mach that he is so situated that he has to sever his connection. Tbe report of the judiciary committee OD the Duncan matter was as follows : The judiciary committee after repeat? ed efforts, due notice having beeo given, failed to get Mr. Gantt before them io person, or with testimony, finds the charges alleged to be groundless and the committee fully exonerates Manager Duncan of said charge. W. N. Elder, chairman. There was also a report from a spe cial committee to consider the cooduct of Mr. Gantt. They made the follow iog report which was adopted by a ris? ing vote : "The commi?tee to whom was re? ferred the resolution to investigate the ! conduct of T.. L. Gantt, editor of the Piedmont Headlight, and a member of the Farmer's Alliance, would respect? fully submit : "That as such editor he has persis? tently used the colams of bis paper in prefering promiscuous charges against a brother member, I). P Duncan, the State exchange agent instead of pro? ceeding according to the provisions as expressed by the constitution, section 4, article 15. That in thus using the columns of bis paper be not only vio? lates the spirit and letter of tbe Alliance law, and briugs discredit upon the order but forfeits the conditions upon which editors are eligible to member? ship under section. 1, article 10. In ? view of - the' above violations of the constitution, we recommend that he be expelled from the order. "Signed: W. 0. Tatum, J. R. Blake, Jr., J. D Montgomery, J. C. Elliott, J. L. Smith.
