Tome will hardly ask the support of the
negroes whom he sold to Southern mar

man who grooms his horses. He has
neither craftsmanship. culture nor gene

That he, so fondly dubbed "Our Own

often grimly suggested. Make him Gov
ernor, and how long will it be before he
will acquire the title deeds to tho State :
