HOTEL ETIIICg.

The great race problem which is now exercising
hote-keepers and others can be safely left TO public
opinion, which will find means of giving itself an
authoritative expression ut last so that nobodys in
alienable rights will be seriously imperlled. But
the current discussion is not without general
interest. especially the unrestraned deliver
ances of some talkative prOprietOrs of resorts"
furnish instructive revelations OF the mode
Of thought aud feeling in regard to their so-called
guests. What does hotel-keeper mean when he
speaks with dsparagement or disdain of a man who
doesn't spend any money"i His hotel has fixed
tariff of prices aud there is prevalent impression
that it is fixed sufficiently high. If the alleged
guest consumes steak. he pays his dol
lar for it, If he rents n lodging-place,
he pays the schedule rate in cash. lie
enjoys no accommodation or attention for which
he doesn't spend money "-as much money rs he
is asked-and as much at least the service he re-
ccives is worth. lie might spend more. He might
drink wines Of more costly vintage and gush out
extravagantly through all the list of extras"
Many "A guest does so-imaglnes, indeed, that he
must do so if he would pass for a fine gentleman
and thereby lifts the resort man into an ecstasy
of bliss
Under the circumstances it is only human for the
"rrsOrt" man to set for himself graduated scale
of hospitable emotion. His mistake consists in not
subleCtlHg tine outward manifestations OF his feel
ing to wholesome restraints in snubbing ono man
with frozen polteness and greeting another with
demonstratye warmth of affection, according to
the comparative length OF their respective
bills for extras. This last utterance seems 10
imply the existence in quarters of an advanced
code of hotel ethics. The man who doesn't spend
any money" is not only creature to be neglected
but he is depraved being who deaf to the plead
ing voice of duty when 1t urges HIM not to violate
his implied contract with the hotel. lie is public
enemy to be rallied at if the law has in store for him
no sterner retrbution.
1t is safe to say that the really accomplished per-
son who knows how to keep a hotel" would not
consider the present time propltious ono for the
cnunciatIon of any such doctrine. The American
lady no longer shrnks from buying an article which
she needs because 1T is cheap, aud the American
gentleman no longer quals before the scOrnful gaze
of his waiter when no orders modest dinner.
Economy Is longer Questionable. We
all want comfort. and We want us much
