How are there two kinds of electric charges?

Electric charge is the fundamental property of particles which gives rise to electric force between them. It is found that when woollen cloth is rubbed against rubber shoes, both woollen and rubber shoes acquire charge and both objects attract each other. Same thing happens when fur is rubbed against ebonite rod. But when charged woollen cloth is brought near the charged fur they repel each other. This repulsion and attraction between the charged objects made Benjamin Franklin to think that there are two types of charges. He arbitrarily called them 'Positive' and 'Negative'.
