Have a Care, Gen. Smith.

The man who went from the rural districts
to Saratoga in tho old days was under suspicion,
Tor VIC read more about CanhcIds giIdcd gam
bling palace than about the medicinal qualities
Of the water, or the politics the hotel vc-
randas, the horse races But Garfield is dead,
his gambling palace is more, and with Scna-
tor Platt gone there is not much politics the
hotel verandas. Saratoga now draws Sunday
school con> crtionS, teachers institutes, and
equity old folks who still imagine that the spring
water is curative. 1t is no longer of the
great summer resorts in the country and is no
longer a topliner compared with Newport, Bar
IIarbor, or other places in prohibition States.
But reputation for gaycty and spcndthrift ways
is hard TO shake off, and hence the suspicion
that Gen. Smith went to Saratoga to throw away
ill-gotten gains since he became chairman of the
Excise Board.
Washington has for some years, felt that it
had outgrown rural conditions and provincial
ideas, and some of promoters have even
imagined that the National Capital had become
metropolitan But Cen Smiths embarrassment
has diSpClled the dclusion. Chevy Chase is more
metropolitan than the District OF Columbia, for

while in the District man must keep to the
middle OF the road and neither look to the right
nor the lett if he does not want to be hailed be-
lore Senator Sheppard's committee and made to
account for the quarter he had in his pocket
when he lett home.
Gen. Smiths predicameut must be largely due
to the innocence OF that truly rural State OF New
Jersey, where all the people who not COM
muters live in Atlantic City and amuse them
selves with the movies in exercising on the
Board Walk. On coming to Washington Gen.
Smith thought he coming to a metropolis
and a cosmopolitan political center. But he made
a mistake in going to Saratoga even TO sit on the
vcranda, drink gallons OF Saratoga water or to
see horse race. The president of the Anti
Saloon League ':nows that even though Can
fields gambling palace is more there arc still
traditions that Saratoga was once a wicked place.

himself.
