Works beg to call the attention of capitalists iron
manufacturers, stock and dairy men, and those
who wish to settle colonies, to their property .which
offers inducements to the classes above named.
The property consists of Six Thousand Three
Hundred Acres of land, located in the counties of
Gaston and Cleaveland, in the State of North Car
ollna, at King's Mountain Depot, on the Atlanta
and Charlotte Air Line railway, now owned by the
Richmond and Danville railroad company. The
property has been used tor fifty years past as an
iron property, and has been worked at various
points, but enietiy at the site of the celebrated
Yellow Ridge Ore Bank, which has always yielded
an ore noted for its richness in metallic iron, and
its softness, and toughness. This vein of ore,
which extends for two miles In-length, has been
worked to the depth of 147 feet, shewing at that
depth a vein of ore about 40 feet wide, and analyz
ing as high as 66 per cent of metallic Iron. This
vein has not been worked for twenty years, but the
facts-Bet fortbean-be fully shown. Various other

'years very large deposits of iron ore have been dis
covered at other points.: Within the past eighteen
months, however, the owners have discovered de
posits of ore in Crowdefs Mountain, (live veins of
Iron ore, are exposed), which were unknown be
fore, and which will furnish an amount of good
ore, easily worked and above water, that must
make it one of the most desirable Iron properties
to be found. They have discovered on the pinnacle
of this mountain, which Is 1000 feet above the level
land, 2200 feet above the sea level, a vein of ore
eight feet wide, which crops out at various points
from the top to the bottom of the mountain, show
ing in one place about 20 feet of solid vein. This
Vein can be traced over the tori of tha mnnntnfn fnr
over a mile, and this deposit alone would afford an
almost inexhaustible supply .of ore, easily worked,
and above the water line. In addition to this four
other vein have been found on- tills mountain.
The ore is a mottled gray ore, showing on analysis
from 49 to 65 per cent .of metallic iron, with a
Oman uinuuuii in uuui.ro Beta, una wimoui any sul
phur or phosphorus. - The quantity ot ore in this
mountain Is simply Inexhaustible and of good
quality,
Besides Crowder'a Mountain the owners possess
King's Mountain, for about seven miles, whose
pinnacle is the highest point of land from Rich
mond to Atlanta, except Mt Airy, In Georgia, and
they have reason to believe this mountain Is full of
ore also. In addition to iron ore the property has
manganese, limestone clay for making fire-proof
brick, gold and other minerals. Very pure and ex
cellent barytese has just been found In large quan-
. tity. ; ... - '
As a stock and dairy farm it offers fine opportu
nities to t hose who may wish to engage in such bus
iness. It has from three to four thousand acres of
level or only slightly rolling land, which produces
grass, grain and all kinds of farming products
finely, and It Is well supplied with water by unfail
ng springs and branches.
The other 4,000 acres embraced In the mountain
aides are productive of fine grass and herdage, and
afford excellent natural pasturage for sheep and
cattle, . The ellmate Is so mild that but little shel
ter for stock Is needed In the coldest winters. The
whole six thousand acres are now covered with a
, fine growth of timber ot all kinds, such as pine,
hickory, oak, walnut cedar, etc The (land is well
suited to farming purposes, by those who wish to
colonize. Cotton, corn, peas, oats, clover and grass,
and fruits of all kinds are produced beautifully ,and
It is specially suited to grapes and small fruits. It
could be divided into small farms that would give
to each farm variety of soil, and level and hilly
and. It is situated in the Piedmont belt which is
noted for the salubrity of its climate, and the
healthiness of Its atmosphere. It is a region free
- from malaria and other unhealthy influences. It
is located with great convenience to railroad facili
ties, being situated at from two to four miles from
King's Mountain Station, on a railway that has the
most extensive connections with all parts of the
country, and which offers great Inducements to
those who are trying to develop the country along
its lines. The owners, will sell this property to suit
purchasers, as follows: The whole tract including

run large rolling mills, lies adjacent to this prop
erty, and can be bought cheaply. The property is
also in close proximity to. the famous All Healing
Mineral Springs, and to the widely-known Cleve

DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM.
GRAND DECLARATION Of DEMO
. GKATIC PRINCIPliES AND
PURPOSES.
Full Text of the Platform Adopted br
the Democratio National Convention
at Chicago July lOtb, 1884 A Pow
erful Arraignment ot the Republican
Party and a splendid Declaration ot
Principles, Purposes and Policy ot
the Democratic Party. ;
The Democratic party of the Union
through its representatives in. Nation
al Convention, assembled, recognize
that, as a nation grows older, new
issues are born . as - time progresses,
and old issues perish; but the funda-;
mental - principles of Democracy
approved by the united voice of the
people remain, and will ever remain
as the best and only security for -the
continuance of free government.
The preservation of personal rights ;
the - equality; of ; all - citizens before
the law ; the reserved rights of the
States, and , the supremacy of the
Federal government within the limits
of the constitution, will ever form thq
true basis of our liberties, and can
never be surrendered without de
stroying that balance of the right and
powers which; enables the continent
to be developed in peace,, and . social
order to be maintained by' means of
local self governments: --
But it is indispensable for the prac
tical application and enforcement of
these fundamental principles that
the government should not always
be controlled by one political party.
Frequent change of adrninistration is
as necessary as the ; constant recur
rence to the popular will. Otherwise
abuses grow, and the government,
instead of being carried on for the
general welfare, becomes an instru
mentality for imposing heavy bur
dens upon the many who. are govern
ed for the benefit of the few who
govern. Public servants thus became
arbitrary rulers. This is now the
condition of . the country, hence a
change is dematnded, - 4 ;! :
The Republican -party v so far as
principle is concerned, is a reminis
cence. ; In practice,- it is an organiza
tion for enriching those who control
its machineryX;Ihe frauds and job
berv which have been brought to
light in every department of the gov
ernment are sufficient to nave caueo
for" reform within the Republican
party. Yet, those in authority ,?nade
recciess oy long possession 01 power,
have succumbed to its corrupting
influence, and h&ve placed in nomi
nation a ticket against which the
Independent portion of the party are
in open revolt. Therefore, a change
is demanded ; such a cnange was aiuce
necessary in 1876, but the will of the
people was then defeated by fraud
which can never be forgotten nor
condoned. Again, in 1880, the change
demanded by the people was defeated
by the lavish use of money contrib
uted; by unscrupulous contractors
and shameless jobbers, who had bar-
gamed for. unlawful profits, . or for
high offices.
The Renublican Dartv durmer its
legal, its stolen and its bought tenure
of power, has steadily decayed in
moral character and political capaci-
v its platform promises are now
e list of its past failures.
It demands the restoration of our
navy it has squandered Hundreds
of millions to create a navy that does
not exist. ,
It calls upon Congress to remove
burdens under which the American
shipping has been ' depressed -it im -
posed and continued the burdens. - . :
it professes a policy ot reserving:
the public lands for small holdings by
actual settlers it nas given away tne
people's heritage till now a few
railroads- and non-resident 'aliens,
individual and . corporate. - possess a
larger area than that of all our farms
between the two seas. . . v i
It professes preference for free in
stitutions..; It organized and tried to
legalize control of State; elections by
Federal troops. ' ' ;
it professes a desire to elevate
labor it has subjected American
workingmen to the competition of
convict and imported contrast labor,
it professes gratitude for all wno
were disabled, or died in the w4r
leaving widows and orphans It left
to a Democratic . House of Represen
tatives the . first effort to equalize
both bounties and pensions. - I
It prof era a pledge to correct the
irregularities of our tariff It created
and has continued them. I -
Its own tariff commission confessed
the need of more than twenty per,
cent reduction Its Congress gave a
reduction of less than 4 per cent. ! .

That a change is necessary is prov

than $100,000,000. Which has yearly
been coiiectea trom a surtenng peo
pie. - ' '
Unnecessary taxation - is unjust
taxation.
We denounce the Republican party
tor having tailed to relieve the people
from the crushing war- taxes .-which
have paralyzed business, crippled
industry - and deprived labor- of em
ployment and just reward.'
( ; The Democracy; pledges itself to
purify the administration : from ' coi
ruption, to restore economy, to revive
respect for the law- and to reduce
taxation to the. lowest . limit consis
tent with a due regard to the preser
vation of the taitn of the nation to its
creditors and - pensioners, knowing
full well, however," that legislation
affecting the occupations of the peo
pie should be cautious and conserva
tive in method,' not in advance of
pubhc opinion, but responsive to its
demands. , .
. The Democratic party is pledg
ed to revise the tariff in a spirit
of fairness to aU interests; - but in
making a reduction in taxes it is not
proposed to injure any domestic in
dustries, but rather to promote their
healthy growth.
From tne foundation of this . gov
ernment the taxes collected at the
Custom House have been the chief
source of Federal revenue such they
must continue to Jbe. - -Moreover,
many industries have come lo rely
upon legislation , for ; successful con
tinuance, so that any change or -; law
must be at every! step regardful of
the labor and capital thus . involved;
. The process of reform must be sub
ject in its execution to this plain dic
tate of justice all taxation shall be
limited to the requirements of eco
nomical government. The necessary
reduction in taxation can and must
be effected without depriving Ameri
can labor of the ability to compete
successfully with foreign labor and

' ? ' We, therefore, denounce thj abuses
of the 'existing tariff s and (subject to
preceding limitations) we : demand
that Federal taxation shall , be exclu
sively; for public, purposes and shall
not exceed the needs of the govern
ment economically administered. ?
The svstem of ' direct ' taxation
known as 'internal ' revenue" is la
war tax, and so long as the law con
tinues the money derived "therefronj

Asserting the eaualitv of all men
before the law, we hold that it is the
duty of the government in its dealing
with the people to mete out equal and
exact justice to all citizens of what
ever nativity, race or color,, religious
orpolitical opinion. ' ; ,
we believe in a tree ballot and a
fair court, and we recall to the mem
ory of the people the struggle of the
Democrats in the 45th and 46th Con
gress, by which the reluctant Repub
lican opposition was compelled to
assent to legislation making every
where illegal the presence of troops
at the pools as ; a conclusive proof
that a Democratic administration
will preserve liberty with order, i '

forms and the compensation of all
United States officers by fixed sala
ries; the separation of Church and
State and the diffusion of free educa
tion by common schools, so that
every child in the land may be taught
the rights of citizenship. ? ,
While we favor , all legislation
which will tend to the. equitable dis
tribution of property, to the preven
tion of monopoly and to a strict
enforcement . of individual rights
against corporate abuses, . we hold
that the welfare of society depends
upon - a scrupulous regard for the
rights of property as defined by the
law.-- - ; -. L.r
We believe that labor is best re
warded when it is freest and most
enlightened. It should, therefore;
be fostered and cherished. t
We' favor the repeal of all laws
restricting the free action of labor
and the enactment of laws by which
labor organizations may be incorpo
rated, and of all such legislation as
will tend to enlighten the Deode as to
Jthe true relation of capital and labor

is an imperative duty of this govern

; This country has never 'had a well
defined and executed foreign policy
save under Democratic : administra
tion. That policy has ever been in
regard to foreign nations so long as
they do not act detrimental to the
interests of the country or hurtful tu
our citizens to. let them alone. :." As: a
result of this policy, we- recall the
acquisition of Louisiana, - Florida,
California and adjacent Mexican ter
ritory, by , purchase alone, . and conr
trast these grand acq uisitions by
Democratic statesmanship with 'the
purchase of Alaska, . the solo fruit ot
Republican administration of nearly,
a quarter of a century., . '' - i ,
The Federal government" should
care for and improve the Mississippi
river and the other great water ways
of the Republic so as to secureforlhe
interior States easy and cheap. trans4
portation to tide water. . ; f ,
. Under a long period of Democratic
rule and policy our merchant marine
was fast overtaking and on the point
of Outstripping that of GreatBritain.
Under twenty years of v. Republican
rule and policy our commerce has
been left to British bottoms until the
American flag has almost been swept
off the high seas. Instead of the Re
publican party's. British policy,1: we
demand for the people of the united
States an American policy. ... V
; Under Democratic rule and policy
our merchants and sailors flying ;the
stars and stripes in .'every ' port suc
cessfully' searched out , a market for
the varied products of American in
dustry i under a quarter of a Century
Of Republican rule andpolicy,' despite
our manifest advantages over : all
other , nations in ; high paid labor,
favorable elimate and teeming soils;
despite the freedom" of ; trade among
all these United States;; despite their
population by the foremost races of
.men, and an annual immigration", of
the young; thrifty; and- adventurous
of all ' nations ; despite our freedom'
here from the inherited;' burdens of
life and industry in the old world
monarchies, their costly war navies,
their, vast tax-consuming, hon pro
during. standing-'armies ;-; despite
twenty ; years of peace. Republican
rule and policy have managed to sur
render to Great Britain, - along 'with
our commerce, the , control of "the
markets of the world. -'
Instead ot the Republican party's
British policy, we demand, in behalf
of the American Democracy, ..an
American policy ; instead Of tne Re
publican party's discreditable schem
ing and false pretense of- friendship
for American labor, expressed bv
imposing taxes,, we demand, in behalf
of the Democracy, freedom f or Ameri
can labor, by reducing taxes to the
end that these: United States may
compete witn unmndered powers tor
primacy among the nations in all the
arts of peace and the fruits of liberty.
With profound regret we have been
apprised by the venerable Statesman,
through whose "person Was struck
that blow at the vital principlaOf the
Republic, acquiesence in the : will Of
the majority, that he cannot permit
us again to place in his hands the
leadership of the Democratic hosts,
for the reason that the achievement
of reform in the administration of
the Federal government is an under
taking now- too heavy for his ageand
failing strength ; rejoicing that his life
has been prolonged : until the general
judgment of our fellow 'countrymen
is united in a wish that the wrong
were righted in his person,: for ; the
Democracy of the United States we
ofler to him, in his ' withdrawal from
public cares, not only; our respectful
and esteem, but also that
e best homage of freemen, the nledea
of our own devotion to Jthe princi
ples and cause, now inseparable in
inemscory oi tms Republic, trom the
labors and name of Samuel J.Tildeii.
With this statement of the hopes,;
principles and purposes of the Demo
cratic party, the great issue of reform
and a change in administration lis
submitted to the people in calm con
fidence that the popular voice will
pronounce in favor of new men aid
new and more favorable oonditfohs
for the growth of industry,-theVex-tension
of prsale and . employment,
and the due reward of labor, and of
capital, ; and the general welfare: bf
the whole country.- ,j lr'ij,3;!l;'1 ' f j
