SAD DEATH.

I'nis Morning.

Over the River at 3 a. m.
rhis Morning.
Mrs. Mary E. Jewett, widow 0
the late Jerry Jewett, who ha.
been long and patient sufferer, die
this morning, July 9th, 1899, at
O'Clock, aged 59years.
The deceased was a most excell
ent Christian woman, beloved and
respected by all her neighbors
aer gentle disposition and amiable
qualities, of wife and mother, and
her humble submission to the will
of her Master to the loss of her
husband, years ago, could not fail
to make it such kind patient for
bearing in all her relations with
family or friend; and she uncons-
=ci6usly won the esteem of ali-witll
whom. she had an acquaintance,
and secured the love, respect and
obedience of her son and daughter,
as shown by their devotion to her
in her painful sickness of long du-
ration, which ended in her death
early this morning. She professed
the Christian faith many years ago,
and united with the NJ. E. Church,
of which she has all this time been
most consistent member.
The Register extends it's deepest
sympathies to the son and
daughter and other relatives in
their sad loss.
Loving mother, though we miss thee,
Though our hearts doth throb with pain,
We know thy trials all are ended
And ne'er shall wish TN &c back again.
When we gaze nj TINT chair now vacant,
Our hearts doth sadly roam
Back to her who has gone before MS,
And now awaits us at "Home, Sweet
Home"
Many years she lived to bless us,
TO guide us in the paths of truth;
And though all else may bc forgotten,
Those words will ever hold their yonth.
No more Wen hear her gentle Diddings,
Nor see her kind and loving face;
But in our hearts we bear her teachings,
SO fun Of ftender, earnest grace.
She had watched her Snvior's coming;
Felt His presence drawing nigh;
And she now, with holy angels,
Sings i'm glory from on high.
Her funeral will take place from
Trinity NJ. e. Church Sunday at
? p. M, and services will be con-
Quoted by her Pastor, Rev. S. j.

Organized Labor tor Silver.

Samuel Gompers. president of
the American Federation of La
Dor, stated in a late interview,
that greater interest than ever be-
fore is now being taken in organ
izing the laboring classes. He has
just returned from an extensive
tour of the larger labor centres,
and says that organized labor will
take more interest in the politics
of the country, in so far as it is
affected by political policies, than
ever before. Organized labor will
make silver the leading issue with
the opposition to trusts a good
second. The agricultural class
have always been strongly inclined
to silver, because no class will re-
ceive greater benefits from it
Silver has always been the money
of the agricultural interests
With the farmers and organized
labor demanding silver as lead
ing issue, what justifies the asser.
tion of the Republican press that
silver is a dead issue?

When the Charleston Gazette
says that "the Register seems bent
on trying to get up disturbance
within it's own party" it simply
states what is not true. The Reg
lister has not been discussing men
and measures of the Democratic
party, but simply the fool utteran-
ces of the Gazette. 1t is such edi-
torials as are reproduced in the Ga
zette from day to day, attacking
Democrats, because they are
not of it's way of thinking,
of what is best for the sue
cess of the party, is what is tend
ing to get up row within the par
ty. The editor of the Gazette, has
to learn that if its editor does be-
long to the Democratic party, the
Democratic party does not belong
to him.

Whether the honorable gentle
man from South Carolina is right
just here or not, one thing is quite
certain, if in 1900 the Democratic
party pushes any one of the three
great issues of Frce Silver, Trusts
or Imperialism out of true align
ment it will be weak, because it is
not straightly meeting the menac-
ing measures of the Republican
party.
