Business Transacted and Plans
Laid.
Thursday morning a Timix-Kxti:!:-
Plttsi: reporter, in company with Mr.
James L. Hall, left Thomnsvillc for
Bold Sping, where the sub-Alliauces
of the county were to hold an import
ant business meeting.
It is not amiss to say that another
feature of the meeting exerted a very
strong influence on the aforesaid re
porter and his eontpnion. A dinner
was to he served, and remembering
what the goxl matrons and gentle
maidens of the 17th and 18th districts
had done and could do in the matter
of satisfying the need for a good
dinner,had no small influence inform
ing the decision to be on hand early
and to remain late.
The early morning ride was a plea
sant one; the sun was hid behind
hanks of clouds, and a gentle wind
canto up Irom the south that was cool
ing and soothing.
The pleasant and prosperous look
ing farm houses by the road side, and
the broad fields that were so soon to
be clothed in harvest array,wete plea
sant to look upon, and the gently slo j ,|,
ting pine forests that were dovetailed!
letwecn the fields, finished a picture
that it were hard to improve.
The reporter found a large crowd
present when he and his companion
arrived A glance at the vehicles
and teams was enough to show tl
the crowd assembled was one th
'cpreseuted the very best element
the sturdy farmers of the county.
One of the objects ot the merlin
was to formulate plans looking to th
erection of a cotton seed oil mill ntid
guano factory, at some p tint in the
county. For this purpose a joint
stock company with a capi
tnl of fifty thousand dollars
and all seemed anxious to help the
order forward, and In doing this to
subserve all other interests to the
grand one, of achieving a marked
success in the undertaking in imme
diate view. The building and ope
ration of such a combined plant, the
guano factory and oil mill will aid the
farmers of the comity in many ways.
It will afford a home market for their
seed, and enable them to participate
in the profits of the manufacture, and
at the same time enable
the farmers to buy their fertilizers
at a very low price. It is almost
needless to say that a monster cotton
warehouse will come as one cf the
natural sequences to the building of j
the factory, and whenever this ware
house is erected the cotton receipts
will be swelled at least three fold.
The committee appointed to formu
late plans will bear in mind, when
making their recommendation all the
collateral advantages of location and
transportation facilities, and while
these will have their full weight, the
town offering the most substantial in
ducements will receive the rich plum.
The Times-Enterpuise hails this
movement with a great deal of pleas
ure. It recognizes the good that will
come to the al lance men of the coun
ty, and it also recognizes the fact that
cooperative enterprises like the one
the alliane has in view has the strong
est possible hacking and the backing
is sure to firing success.

for the nomination of representatives
to the General Assembly and Senator
from this district, and that enid pri
mary he called for as late a date as
possible.
It was in the afternoon when the
meeting adjourned, and it wps easy
to see that the men who hud shaped
the actioii of the day were
heart and hand in the matter, and
that the erection of a guano factory
aud oil mill by the Alliancemen of
the county, is a ccrtainity. Mr. Jas,
L. Hall addressed the meeting in tho

that Thomasvillc bid the
movement God speed, and that her
people stood ready to aid it in a prac
tical way and would he glad to confer
with the committee appointed to
formulate the plans with the view of
securing the plant within her borders.
The address of Mr. Ilall was well
received, and the fceliii)? of appreci
