GREAT REF UBLICAN MASS MEETING
4gDn.sf t'A.f j. IN ONO. p -H

l. fAfE41t IN OAxO.
There was great republican mass meeting at
Warren, Ohio, on the Esd, which was one Of the
most significant events Of the campaign. The
whole Congre ssonal District represented By Gen.
! Garfield united in great enthusiastic demonstra-
ton in favor Of Republcanism and honest money !;
25, 900 people were assembled, and the procession
which marched through the streets and filed the
public square and adjoining streets was long that
it consumed an hour in passing given point.
The speakers were Gov. Hayes, Ben Wade, Col.
Grosyenor and Judge Taft. Fifteen bands Of
music artillery, and fire companies, large deega-
tons from townships, and an immense column Of
voters bearing banners and notices were includ-
ed in the profession Among the notices were
the following: "In Hayes we Trust; In Allen we
Bust" "Give US Dollar Worth 100 Gents, al
len Says There is Something Wrong Here"
"This is Not Our Funeral-New York Takes Care
Of the Corpse" One wagon contained printing
press, which was constantly engaged in tur ming
off imitation grecnbacks for distribution among
the crowd. This wagon bore the inscription:
.sThe Unlimited Trust and Confidence Company
Allen l. Cary, Bankers" One of the most ludi.
crous features of the procession was large band
of mounted men aud boys, dressed in every con-
ceivablc garb, and wearing masks. These wor-
thies claimed to represent the unwashed and un-
pressive imitation anti-free school and free whis-
ky banners.
| A barbecue, for which whole OK had been
roasted and wagon loads Of biscuits provided, was
one of the features of the day. This was eaten in
the park and above the stand on which it was
placed was the inscription, "This is the true in
| fiation."
The mass meeting in the afternoon was one Of
the most colossal affairs in the campaign history Of
the State. The speakers stand, the band stand
and even the high cupols of the Court House were
covered with flags and notices. Among the lat
ter were the following 1.-The Pope's No Go ;""No
st. Geghsn in Ours ;""No Union Of Church and
State;" "Foghorn Allen" "InHation;" "Gray-
backs, Greenbacks, Roorbacks, No. backs" "Stsg

"Our imitation $4,000 for Hayes Hardscrabble
says hard money Free schools and honest money
The Book before the priest" "Free schools for a
free people,"
The speeches were delivered from two stands.
and were enthusiastically received. The great
outpouring of the Republican voters was the
GROWING event Of its kind in the political history
of the State, may be accepted as an indication Of
what the Western Reserved prepared to do on
the l2.h of October. H'

METHODIST CLERGYHEV ON TIA

At meeting of Methodist preachers held 10 Bos

was the topic Of discussion The Rev. F. J. Alb
bolt. pastor of the Cente mary church. Charles
ten, S. C., the largest Methodist church in Amer
ica was invited to speak. .id a.-
Mr.. Abbott said that the South had not changed
its opinions from what they were before the war,
and related incidents of the cold blooded murder
Of the colored people and their sympathizers that
had cone within his knowledge. He said there
was work going on in Georgia and Mississippi that
/ WAS ..per fectly helish, and that the men who
voted the democratic ticket in the North were
voting 10 support these acts Of the South. When
the news of last year that Massachusetts, had cleo
ted democratic governor reached South Carroll
ma, men and women crowded the streets 'wring-

The Rev A. McKeown raised an objection to
the relation Of facts Of outrage and murder un-
supported by evidence, that would he reported IN
Boston papers and go back to the South magni-
fed. l"
MIR. Abbott referred to the Atlanta Christian
Advocate for proof, and after some further dis
cussion on this point the speaker continued The
American flag was regarded even By the young
people as Yankee flag, that had no business on
their soil. The religion Of the South was about
hatred of the Yankee. s-.s .s
When asked by Mr.. Chadbourne of Boston
about the feeling ID regard TO the Round Lake
csmp-meeting, where six or seven thousand dol
lyrs was collected in aid Of the southern church,
he replied that he knew little about the sid for
that false called Methodist Episcopal church, but
be did know that while they were tsking that col.

speaking on the late war that was waged for mon

!" The result of the Fall River strike is an
other lesson to those who engage in strikes,
that such movements are poor means to
promote the interest of laborers In this
case the manufacturers at Fall River were
not anxious 10 run their factories when
the strike began. Business was dull and
without profit. They were paying as
much as they could afford Rather than
disorganize their force they would have
kept it employed, but they cared little
whether the operatives kept at work or
quit. The operatives have now h"en with
out employment some time. and are con-
sequenily SO much the poorer by the
amount of wages lost than though they
had kept at work. Many OF them are en-

been law lcssness and violence which have
made it necessary to call ON the strong

by the strikers, and those who actually
began work did SO at considerable peril,
being protected from assault only by the

10 its history the State has raised a corn
crop which will supply the home demand

Ing of trade and the abundant crops will,

contsnted, and will encourage them to re-
newed efforts 10 develop the material in

THE CENTRAL FACTORY CUES
TION IN JAMAICA.
From the Colonial Standard.

We are glad to learn chat Mr.. BURTON
has succeeded in placing the number of
shares in his CENTRAL FACTORY enter
prise allotted to this Island, and that he
will be very soon in a position to COM
mence his important work, We feel
assured that the introduction practical
ly, OF the Central Factory system will
mark a prosperous era in the history of
the Colony, and that the eminent sue,
cess which will attend this pioneer in the
right path, will soon induce fresh adyen-
turers to follow. AS we have all along en-
deavoured to shoW since the subject of
Central Factories for Jamaica was first
mooted in this paper and long before Mr..
Burton had turned his attention to the
place, the new establishments are des-
tined to supply the only means whereby
the production OF Sugar can be increased.
The large estates are incapable of aug
menting their present crops, for the sim
pie reason that they cannot command the
labor necessary for that purpose. Ger
tain persons held once, that this was be-
cause the Iaborers were badly paid and
unfairly treated !; but such errors have been
long ago exploded. Even recently we
had the delay in the completion of certain
public works laid down in official reports
to the difficulty of procuring labor, and
as the public pays very high wages, and
the labourers have nothing TO complain
of in tho treatment which they receive,
the fact seems conclusive in favor of the
statement so long resisted by prejudiced
or careless persons, that hands could not
be got even if better terms were offered
than the Planters are in the habit of al
lowing. No one in his senses would, we
think, venture upon the task of establish
ing a new Sugar estate in this Island on
the plan of those in existence, or even to
re-establish any of those which have been
abandoned in the past. But whilst this
state of things as regards the exploration
of the large estates is found to prevail in of
a country possessing over h~alf-a,million
inhabitants, the largest majority of whom
have been reared in the Sugar growing and
manufacturing business, it was natu-
raj to suppose that any opportunity, CIV
en- to people who had thus imbibed the
taste for this special calling, to follow it
in some way more ~congenial to their minds,
than is to be found in estates labour,
would be eagerly embraced and as a fact
we find that a vast number OF the hands
