DeCamp, Manager. into Till: REPUBLICAN PARTY. The Republican party came existence in ISGG.and hence is not yet fifty years old. Trotn the hour of its birth, imperialism has been the dominant element in its creed and “rule-or-ruin” has been deeply ii - fused into the spirit of its policy. It came before the world us the champion of freedom, as the friend of tiie oppressed, as the di-penser of the blessings of civilization and Christianity to the pour and the benighted, and it proceeded to fiilfill it* rnissi >n of iovo by u cru-ade of hat- , to give freedom to the oppressed bv oppressing the free, and to re- drt *s th wrongs of i he poor by heap- log favors upon the ric i. In five y^ars >if:er it came into ex istence i! h;nl flung to the winds ail tiie safe-guards placed around our institutions by the heroic and far- seeing loin.dti'S of the republic, had ti'ampied the constitution under foot, proclaiming it to be “a league with death and a covenant with hell,” and had plunged the country into the most, dreadful war of ancient or modern times. From the start, its course has been one of consummate hypocrisy, of arrogant self-righteousness, and of implacable hate for all who stood in its way. While making vast prep arations to subjugate the South,it systematically and persistently de ceived the people of the North as to its motives and purposes by declaring most solemnly before the whole world, that it had no intention of invading any State, no designs upon Southern institutions, no power nor inclination to coerce the Southern people. All this time with shame less duplicity, it was actively and eagerly preparing for war, and when the war was precipitated, it aroused and united the people of the Norih by the cry that the flag had been at tacked and that the capital itself was in danger. In its Bchenu a of pseudo-philan thropy it reaches the climax of hypocrisy and absurdity, when for its professed love for four millions of negro slaves, it oppresses and at tempts to enslave eight millions of white freemen ; and then claims to be called of God to dispense the bless ings of Christianity by enslaving and slaughtering ten millions of inoffen sive Malays;—for the cry of “des tiny” can mean nothing but the call of God. The spirit of the party is the same spirit that made England a gloomy monastery in the KJ'.h century, that arbitrarily scattered a parliament ar.u murdered a king, that trod the ht.-lpb .ti* peasantry of I re 1 a r;d into the t'ii ir th, and thut, for fhr< *0 hun- died \t I - n r- VI lit revtr it has gait ' 1 ;t fo Mi •r hx , Ih is ne ver scru pled lit Vic leisce. ir.j: is t ice. and by pot y i n O iter t t • b dii/inister to its gr* t 'i and fet'd t t) l- fl i\Xl* i t Its fan ut icis m. 1 tu * Per j v i 1 s lll)*\ fl .tletill g and pauiT 'T izi. tnii!i mi f f | If’ , •si* at a c. \ l: * t h* p* 0»i e ( •r *30 *' • > I) 000 mor l bait • •Jr* tiinuUiit paid nil tilt) comb it led pe> suit) rolls of (I • t ’ v> . it* l iny , ingly seized imperial power and trampled down the republic. The historian Froude describes the con ditions in Home in these words: “To make money, money, by any means, lawful or unlawful, became the univeisal passion. Money! Theory was still money! Money the one thought from the highest Senator to the poorest wretch who sold his vote in the comitia.” History repeats itself and these words can be applied with peculiar ernnhasis to the United States today. We have but to continue the rapid rate of the last ten years to And our boasted privileges all departed and liberty become only a dream of the past OUR LOCAL MARKET. During last week we heard of some loud complaints against the Gaffney cotton market. They came from farmers in the southern and eastern part of the county, who asserted that the cotton buyers here were not pay ing as much by from one-fourth to one-half cent per pound as was paid oa the same day at Hickory and York- ville, nnd that this state of things would turn most of the cotton in the f the county to those o lower part markets. Nuw we are not at all acquainted with the particulars and cannot say w!ie! her these complaints are just or unjust. But we do say that if there aiy any grounds f"i' such complaints they should he quickly removed. It is :v fact that cotton was sold in Yurkvilie one day last week at 11 cents, but it is very probable that there were some conditions about the sale with which the out-side public yy ere not acquainted. Gaff ney cannot reasonably be ex pected to compete with a mar ket in yyhich the price has been unduly i; Hated for a day by local rivalry or by other unusual condi tions. We feel sure, hoyvever, that Gaffney can and will meet all hornst and legitimmo competition,•ai d yvill pay us much fur cotton in u straight- out legitimate trade as any other town in the I’iedmont belt. We hope our farmer friends will apprise themselves of all the facts connected with the sales they have heard of, and when they do so, we predict that they will find that some influences were brought to bear which do not belong to the regular channels of trade. ROSH HASHANAH, The .IcwImIi New Year, Begun at Sunnet Yesterday. M Poliakoff, our popular Hebrew merchant, wu-nt to Atlanta Saturday to attend services incident upon the celebration of Rosh llashauuh, the Jewish new year. He wiil be absent from the city until tomorrow, and OF INTEREST TO GAFFNEY. A Rumor That the Carpet Mill Will he Moved from this City. A rumor has in somo way gained currency that the Gaffney Carpet Manufacturing Company are think ing of moving their plant from Gaff ney to some other place on account of certain damage suits which have been instituted against the company by citizens of this city. In substan- tiution or verification of the rumor w T e find the following in the Charlotte Observer of Sunday, Sept. 23: “It is altogether probable that a new industry will soon be added to the varied industrial life of Charlotte. It will be known as the Charlotte Carpet Manufacturing Company. “Mr. J. E. Bierck, the president and treasurer of the Gaffney Manu facturing Company, who. as noted in The Observer some days ago, hud come to Charlotte to live, has been prospecting with a view to establish ing a carpet factory in this city and is most favorably impressed with tne advantages of Charlotte as a manu facturing point. It is likely that he will build a large plant here shortly “Mr. Bierck is from Philadelphia originally. He moved to Gaffney two years ago, and is stili actively in charge of his manufacturing interests a* that point ” Such a move, if carried out. would be materially detrimental to the bus iness interests of Gaffney and we hope that rh'-se differences may be amica bly adjusted and to the entire satis faction of both parties. The manu facture of carpets is a new industry in the South, and a very important one; and Gaffney should feed honored to have within her borders the first carpet mill |-outh of Philadelphia— not only from a business standpoint, hut because it was a high tribute to the thrift, energy and progressive- ne:8 of the town.

We were very sorry to hear, only a few days ago, that Miss Leona Northey had met with an accident a week or two before which resulted in the breaking of one of her limbs in two places.'one place being broken so badly that the bones protruded from the skin. The scene of the ac cident was near Cherokee trestle on the Southern railway. It seems that Miss Northey was walking the railroad track on this side of the bridge and just as she had gotten out on an embankment she either saw or heard a train coming and jumped off tiie truck to get out of the way of it. In jumping she lost her balance and fell down the embankment, with the result as above stated. She was carried to her home, where she has since been confined, surrounded by loving hearts and by tender hands that as tenderly d r ess the wounds and administer to the wants of the unfortunate young lady. At lust accounts Miss Northey was doing well, and we sincerely hope that she may have a speedy recov ery. > Tom Blucliucll Dead.

Rosh Hushanah, the Jewish new year, according to the Hebrew calen dar, the fir-a of the month i'ishri and the beginning of the year 50151 of the Jewish era will be observed inis week.

Rosh Hashanah is called also the day memorial on account of the rab binical tradition that it is the an niversary of the day of creation.

Tho issue bewtoen Mc Kinley and Bryan is more than an issue between any two men or any two ordinary political parlies.
