Pertinent Qneellona Ir Robert K. Hand to tbe bext Senator from Cape will there be lees, or ‘Record—Coibyiso;" in this county. Ir Robert E Hand is tbe next Senator from Cape May, will there be lew, r more, “Oaiadeniam" in tbe coanty? Ir Robert E. Hand to tbe next Senator, from Oape May, will there be lees, or more, "Nummy’s lalaodiam" in Cape May? This latter question u respect fully referred to the ‘ natural privilege leu of the lower end of the county. Ir Robert E.

It behooves the party to pot np candidates that wiL command the confidence of the county." The Times is advocating the nomination of ex-Sena tor Hand by the Demoits in order that the above ''opportunity” can happen. They know Hand la a weaker man than Crease. btt. n. m.

Comparisons are odius, yon know, thongh the Wildwood "Bun'' and ita editor from Camden, bravely attempts it. and proves to Ala own aatla<acbon that Senator Cresre it a bloated aristocrat and owns an automobile.
