The Proposed New Bank.

| The necessary stock for the Farmers Loan
| Association Bank has been subscribed and
| the bank will probably be organized next Fri
day. About $4,000 has already been pledged
and IL the Association chooses to issue other
stock. the amount may be increased To amy
desired sum.
| Our people never had more surplus money
| than now, and much money isseeking invest.
ment, and our planters are making sublime
effort to get on Il cash basis.
The National Bank at Abbevile has more
| money than ever before, and the business OF
| that institution grows with each succeeding
year, while their former accommodations tn
planters have set the county TO looking for
greater banking facilities.
In this demand originated the idea Of eStab-
fishing IL new bank, and the stockholders OF
| the rev organization now have only to act
Wisely in the choice OF their officers, and then
allow them to apply the best known
methods in the conduct of the business. Tn
der such control great good 10 the counIy,and
much financial success 10 the Stockholders S
will result.
Bark Presidents and Bank Cashiers are Sc
lected solely because Of their business Qualih-
cations. Social position, religious faith, polit-
ical creed, and other considerations are set in
the back ground when financial agents are to
be chosen. Men who arc wise enough 10 be
the owners Of money, are generally wise
enough to consider special fitness and Qualiii-
cation as the one thing needful. While we
arc not in the councils of the stockholders, il
is rumored that the following prominent cili.
F,r Dn
ller, Esq, Colonel J. I. Robertson, aud Mr..
John a. Devlin. With either Of these gen.
tlemen In charge no one doubts the success of
the institution. Solid financially themselves,
they would inspire public confidence in the
Bank which thcy might control-and public
confidence in bank, means financial success.
Besides the nieritnnd ability which these gen
tlemen possess in themselves, they can and
would command all the money which might
be needed in the safe and prosperous conduct
of the Bank. Even nj the organization, if il
should be desirable to increase the capital
stock, they could make the necessary increase
at moments notice. They need hesitate
nothing In plcdging thel friends for any
amount.
The demand for bank stock is good, and
either may confidently rely on their
friends for any needed help In organizing ali
institution which the people themselves need
so much, and which would be of SO much ad
vantage TO them.
AS we have already stated, we have not
been admitted within the wells, and may be
all wrong as to the real candidates or the pro-
spcctive officers of the new bank. We only
repeat what might be termed street talk,
which may or may not have any foundation
in fact. We vouch for nothing. except the
fact that business tact is necessary for the sue
cess OF bank.
