Capt. John W. Lane.

Capt. John w. Lane, son of the late
Confederate veterrn Capt. Henry E.
Lane, was born April %, 1s41, and
died October IL, 1906, aged 65 years.
In parentage, the deceased was hon.
orally connected with the Poseys,
Kimseys, the Williamsons, prominent
family circles in the Mills River sec
ton of Henderson county. When
twenty years of age MI. Lane joined
the first volunteer company that left
Hendersonville May 5, 1851, ranking
as 3rd lieutenant, under command of
Gait. VIM. M. Shipp. His subsequent
promotion to the leadership of his
company was an honor to which
bravery and devotion to duty justly
entitled this faithful, fearless soldier.
During his term of service in the Con-
federate army he was thrice wounded,
twice captured, for eighteen months q
prisoner in the state of Delaware.
At the close of the war he moved to
the Southwest and starting with the
rising tide of material prosperity,
soon gained a growing status in fnan-
cial circles. Returning a few months
ago, from Paris, Texas, to this county
for a temporary sojourn among rela-
tives, and to s~uperintend his property
interests, his health gradually declined
and last Thursday the death summons
came while at his place Of residence
near Rugby,-an end to medical aid

a devoted niece and her circle of will
ing helpers could administer.
Saturday afternoon, in charge of
Undertaken Thomas Shepherd. the
burial service took place in the Pres
byterian chapel at French Broad GEM
etery, Rev. G. 8. Jones officiating, at
tended by a large assembly of neigh
bors and sorrowing relBtives. Among
them was the only surviving brother,
Preston Lane, who arrived from
Florida just in time to look on the
face of the dead and following the
casket to an open grave at the side of
their fathers tomb.
Among the pall-bearers and wa
veterans in attendance, we recognized
six comrades, and the thought came
when all but one of the few now sur
wing, shall cease to respond at roll
call, whose lot will it be to pronounce
the valedictory2
To the generosity of Capt. Lane the
community at Rugby is much indebt-
ed for the valuable plot of ground on
which stands the little chapel in which
very appropriately indeed this fare
well service was held. And also for
that beautiful spot overlooking a Sec
ton of the French Broad valley west
of Capt. Miller's residence, OH which
is soon TO be erected a Sunday home
for another school and church organ
ization. In remembrance of such
deeds of kindness, the name of this
generous donor will evermore be
gratefully associated.

EDITORIAL

Some brilliant informant. in repor.
ting to the United States the results
of the registration of voters and po-
hitting out the decrease IN the num-
Der registered as compared with
that of other years, has attributed
the falling off to the rigorous res
friction of the new electoral law.
In our opinion, it is not the severi
ty of the electoral law which has eau
sed the marked Indifference on the
part of the electors it is sad conv-
iction which must be affecting the
great mass of electors and which will
surely GO on increasing.
The phenomenon, to which wo are
referring, is certainly not due to the
severity of the electoral law. 1t is
the natural result Of desillusion
ment, of an inevitable disenchant-
ment which has been far reaching
it is the logical consequence Of ths
recognition of the fact that the suf
fragio, in the form N which it has
been granted to Porto Rico by des
potic and absolute government, is not
the eloquent expression of the popu-
lar will.
This humiliating and dishearten-
ing conviction is the cause of the
falling off in the number of registra-
tions, and it is the cause which May
be attributed to other things among
us besides the unpopularizing of the
suffrage.
How is it possible to expect enthx-
siasfn, how can there exist among III
an interest seen in other places
when it is fully recognized fact
that no matter what may be ths ex-
preston of the will of the people, as
indicsted by the ballot boxes, the
governm ent will continue doing as il
pleases2
1t will be time enough to look fol
enthusiasm and interest among th'
itizenS in the elections, when it i

thing, when it is understood that on
it rest all the constituted powers.
But here, things are very different.
The feudal system with which We
are oppressed does not consider fhat
the ballot-box can in any way affect
the existence of the present regimen.
The suffrage in Porto Rico posses
ses neither the importance nor trans
tendency wbA is conceded TO it in
And inMead of its being consids-
red strange, it ought to be deemed
alto gether natural that those electors
who have failed this year to register,
have been actuated by recognition
of the tact, perfectly clear convis-
tion, that it would be only waste Of
time TO take part in an election which
here amounts to nothing but farce.
No one should think it strange
that instead of the lists Of voters $40
