naming the “man children” after
the reform (T) candidate for gov
ernor. We are not at all surprised
at this. We call Handy’s atten
tion to the fact that there arc chil
dren named for Benedict Arnold,
.ludas Iscariot and other noted
characters ol history. We are re-
I*ic4*d at one tiling, however.
These little innocents “fresh from
the Creator’s tender care,” come
along with such fre(|uent and per
sistent regularity, that Handy is
often perplexed to tind an appro
priate name. In tills instance, the
name and the occasion have met.
We are very much inclined to the
opinion that the Hon. Hoke Smith
will have to wait till this crop of
“man Imiiies” arrive at the voting
age lieforc he can lie elected gov

things most too fresh in the minds
ol the dear people to allow such a
thing just now. After reading
Handy’s pathetic appeal to us to
come over

vise that he apply for license to
