D1ED-At the residence of Ran
kin III. Hill, in this county, at 1910
O'Clock, p. IL, on Sunday, March
"a, 1882, Mrs NJ Fanny Kimberling:
nee Page.
subject of the above notice
was born near Lynchburg, Virginia,
on the 9Th day of October, 1922.
Her parents removed TO the Kama
wha Valley, while she was quite
Young, and settled near Buffalo, on
the farm now occupied by Henry
Eastman. 1t was while residing
there, that she was united in mar
riage to the late Davis Kimberling,
which event occurred in the month
of juno, 1851. She accompanied
her husband to his farm OH Thir-
teen Mile Creek, whore many happy
years were spent. y short time
previous to his demise, he purchased
a small farm Immediately below the
town of Buffalo, on the Kanawha,
where they resided until his death,
which sad event occurred on the
9Th day of December. 1869. A few
months subsequent to this severe
bereavement, that almost crushed
her life, she sold the farm, which
she inherited from her husband, and
made her home principally with her
sister, Mrs. Emma Hill, wife of the
gentleman at whose house she died.
The sutferings of this noble woman
were intense, n cancer eating her
very life out slowly, but surely; she
first discovered its insidious ap-
proach five years ago, and from that
time to her death, her physical tor
ture was great, being augmented
day by day, until they were almost
unbearable. For many years she
had been devoted member of the
NJ. f. Church, South, and chung
without swerving to the tenets of
her faith. Having borne the cross
without murmuring, throughout the
dark vicissitudes of life, we are safe
in saying she is now wearing the
crown, in that glorious land beyond
the setting sun. Mrs. Kimberling
was childIess. but had warm place
in her heart and affections for chill
drcn, who invariably called her
"Aunt Fanny" After the death of
her estimablc husband, she was
never the same woman. The clods
that fell upon his coffin: as she stood
by his grave, gave a mournful ca
dencc to IL heart subdued with grief,
from which she never entirely re-
covered. The SHOWS of many win
tiers mantled his tomb, and the flow
ers of many summers blossomed
upon his grave, yet she was ever
true to his memory. Let us trust
that after Iife's fitful foyer, she is
with him amid the heavenly hosts
above. Her remains were inferred
on the 18th ultimo, followed by a
large concourse of friends, many
from this place being among the
number. Rev. Mallory conducted
the funeral services. ~ know that

Our advertising space is over
crowded this week. The REGISTER is
apopular advertising medium, and
our business men know a good thing
when they see it, and take advan-
tage of it. They know an advertise
ment in this paper is worth some
thing to them, and is sure to bring
good returns, and. therefore, they
use our columns and pay literally
for the space they use. We have
now in the office nearly two columns
of advertising that we could not
insert, and had to beg the adver-
tiscrs to wait week or two until
we got room TO insert them. We
don't claim the "largest circulation
ever attained by any paper in the
county" but we do claim a fair
subscription list, which is both sat
isf;lctory to our advertisers and
oursclf.

The biIl eslabIishing q Reform


The bill establishing a Reform
School in this State provides for the
reception of inmates into the propos-
ed institution of incorrigible and
vicious male minors under sixteen
years of age who may be committed
by a justice of the peace on proof
that they are beyond the control of
parents or guardians, or when it is
shown that such minor is u proper
subject for said Reform School by
reason of vagrance, or of incorrigi-
BILE orvicious conduct, and that from
the moral depravity or otherwise of
the parents, guardian, or next friend,
they are incapable or unwilling to
exercise proper care over such
minor. Also minors may be placed
in the institution for temporary
restraint or discipline when those
in charge of them shall contract for
their support. The bill further pro-
vidcs that the male minors convict
ed in any of the State courts of fell
ony or misdemeanor, may at the dis
erection of the Judge be sentenced to
this Reform School instead of the
penitentiary or county Jail. The
directors of the institution are given
power to bind out inmates us APP
prentices during their minority to
learn some trade or employment.
Let us set to work to have this
school located in this county by

The Chic 60 Mail speaking of the ap-
preaching death of JEFF Davis and Mrs.
Harriet Beecher Stowe. says: "Tha,
these two should pass down into the
shadow of the valley of death together
is one of the condolences arranged by a
hayward destiny. There could be no
greater incongruity than the bringing OF
these two persons together even in their
journey to the other world. The one an
apostle of fre' dom and humanity and
enlightenment; the other leader in a
cause which had for it's aim, the main
tenance of sertdom and inhumanity.
But the grim old gentleman with the
scythe and the grim ferryman on the
dark river pay no heed to earth born
distinctions. The passions and motives
common to the flesh are obliterated at
the threshold of the tomb.''

It is said that President Harrison is
very much displeased with the Germans
because they went back on the G.. O. P.
at the recent elections in Iowa and
Ohio. He is also reported as saying to
Senator Sawyer who asked the appoint
ment of German, that the Germans
had no right to expect anything from
him after deserving the party in Iowa
and Ohio. If Mr., Harrison believes it
right to refuse patronage on account OF
lack of fealty to his party, he must, as a
natural sequence, believe it right to re-
ward for devotion to party. But has he
followed this rule with his brother in
black? We scratched his back we now
wish him to scratch ours.

VALUE OF THE HOME MARKET.

Workingmen who are persistently
urged to vote for free foreign trade I'M.
der promise that all the nations of the
earth will in return become consumers
Oh american products, may very profit
able consider the possibilities Of thai
promise being made good. The fact is
the markets SO lavishly promised are
now quite fully occupied by the yer,
European manufacturers and tradesmen
who are behind this free trade move
ment, and every man with knowledge
of business knows that they cal be sup.
planted in but one way, i. c., by offering
our products at lower prices than are
now charged or our rivals will accept
undeI the pressure of competition. And
here is where the interest Of the work
ingman becomes especially prominent.
As more than nine-tenths of the
value of manufactures consists Of the
labor bestowed upon their production,
it necessarily follows that about an equal
proportion of any reduction in. price
must come off those who perform the
labor. With this fact in his mind, the
glittering promise Of foreign markets
will have hollow sound for the Amer
ican workingman.
Unable to contlovert the serious fact
that their policy means lower wages for
American labor, the free trade preachers
begin to talk of decreased cost of living
which will come with the millennium
they picture, but succeed in proving
nothing beyond the fact that cheaper
living must come, if it comes at all, by
reducing the price Of all other articles as
well as those to be sent abroad. And
this means that laborers in every de-
partment of industry must be compelled
to work for lower wages than they now
get.
The United States market is the best
in the world. It is the only one We can
eyer be certain Of holding, and to give
it over to foreign rivals for tie privilege
of undertaking them for custom with
which they are not now content, would
be d folly into which the intelligen,
workingmen Of the country are no,
likely to be inveigled.
