Hag- We published in another column
statement that the Committee Of three
hessrs Duncan, Sigh aud Zimmerman
appointed by the State Alliance TO confer
with the Union Store Company, one Of the
wealthiest mercantile combinations in this
country, upon the matt or of establishing
stores in this State for the special advan-
tage OF the members of the Alliance In
other words, the Alliance Com mittee Of three
have combined with the Union Store Com pany
Combination of Chicago, to form q gigantic
Trust to monopolzc all the ALLAN CO trade H.
this State. TO us il seems that the Committee
has placed the Alliance, which is supposed
to be uncompromisingly opposed TO trusts,
monopolies and combinations, in a very COM
promising position. 1t is true, they tell us
that no Alliance member j, bound to trade q,
those stores but neither are they bound t,
trade through the State and County Agencies,
and ii the Union Cvmpany's Stores are to
take the place Of the Agencies, we SEQ NO
reason why the Alliance should continue the
salaries and other expenses necessary to
keep them up. And if the Agencies are
continued, we do not see what special ad-
vantage the stores will DC ID the members
Of the Alliance.
We are told that "the stores aud banks
here canuot afford TO do business on the
credit system, or lend money wuhom good
security" Well. that's little "6shy.:' If
the Chicago $5,00O.Oo Trust Company arc
willing to bring their capital South to do
credit business and lend money to our Farm
ers without good security, in the name of our
distressed Farmers We say, let them come
quick. 1t is just what our Farmers want,
for while they can get any amount Of credit
on good security, good security is about ss
scarce as money, end there's precious little
OF that among them.
Mark our prediction: There's q large
mouse in that meal tub, somewhere.

Bsa- In our humble opinion. both parties
in the Agricultural Hall trouble acted too
hastily, and it seems TO us that the Governor
was very unfortu nate in the legl advice
given him. Had the attorneys for Mr..
Alexander waited until they got full pos
session of the property and the deed
properly recorded, before rendering the
worthless revenue scrip in payment OF
the balance, the Governor could not have
wrested the properly from them and on thr
ether han if the Governor had merely re-
fused to receive the scrip, and only left the
validity Of the tender for the courts to decue
hereafter the Clemson College would have
had The use of the $4,000 nov lying idle,
the suit for possession of the property and
damage, would have been avoided, and the
States position in the case made stronger
than it is now.
We applaud the Governor for his action in
peremptorily refusing the balance of the
purchase money in paper tha, had been pro-
nounced worthless by a spec al court ap-
pointed by the Legislature. In that act he
did the State great service, but in acting
npon the advice to forciby prevent the
purchaser who had complied with oil the
terms Of sale, from taking possession Of the
