Opinion of Politicians


In suggesting the above tickets as
possible of confirmation within the
next ten months, the writer is in
fiuenced by the opinion of political
leaders of proved experience. Presi-
dent Harding of course will be re-
nominated as standard bearer Of the
G. 0. 2. because, as Senator Jim Wat
son recently explained. no one else
can run on the Harding Administra-
ton record.
Because Vice President Coolidge is
regarded b yparty spokesman as lack
ing a personality to arouse the
electorate, it is freely predicted that
Coolidge will not run, but will give
way to some one from the progress
sive wing of the party-probably
Assistant Secretary Of the Navy Theo-
Gore Roosevelt.
RalstOn Is Logical
Despite all the clamor raised over
Governor AL Smiths action in signing
the State prohibition enforcement law
repeater, he will not be the Demo
cratic nominee or even a powerful con-
tender for the nomination as party
standard next year.
Rather, because Of his personal
popularity, it is more likely he will be
in second place on a ticket, headed
by some compromise candidate be
tween the several factions within the
party-and such a compromise now
would strongly favor Senator Ralston
Of Indiana. RalstOn and Smith would
constitute a team with a positive pro-
gressive favor, with an appeal TO
farmer and worker, respectively, and
with that conservative record, too.
that would command a confidence in
the business world such as perhaps
no other combination Of candidates
could muster within the Democratic
party.

 water Virginia

Set The Pace For Whole Of Tide water Virginia
 George Washington, always a lover of horses, was steward of the Alexandria Jockey club, and the races in Fairfax and adjoining counties Of Virginia always proved strong at. fractions.
 The entire family at Mt. Vernon 1 usually attended the races at An | napolis, in the adjacent colony of ! Maryland. On these occasions the great coach. the coachmen, the foot men, the positions and the horses were sent across the Potomac the day before, so to be in readiness for an early start the next morning. It does not require much imagina- tion to picture the impression that the arrival of the Mt. Vernon caval- cade made on the ladies and gentle men of Maryland foregathered for social gayeties incident to the racing season.
 r Washington's favorite diversion was foX-hunting. He was always superb ly mounted and was reputed a good rider He habitually dressed for the hunt in blue coat, scarlet waistcoat. buckskin brooches, top boots and vel vet cap. and carried whip or crop with a long thong in his hand.
 His stables and equipages were al ways in perfect order. It was his custom to rise early and inspect them about sunrise. Except when absent as general of all the forces of the United Colonies" and later as President of the United States, he continued to give his attention to plantation details to the last day of his life. and rode with the ease and gracefulness of much younger man.
 When Washington was President his horses were a source of surprise and admiration. The coach team of srotless condition. The night before Il ey were to he used they were covered with paste of which whit irG was the principal ingredient; i; tfen they were swathed in body clothes and bedded in clean straw
 The next morning, when the paste had dried it was well rubbed and brushed and gave the horses a glossy and satin-lile appearance. Their hoofs were blackened and polished and their mouths washed. They were then led forth ready in every re- spect for the light that has ever beaten upon the equipages of rulers of nations.
 Washington and his friends set the pace For tidewater Virginia, and their habits and customs influenced the widely dispersed Virginians as they passed over the mountains to create new commonwealths. Their traditions formed the tapestry of dreams handed down from genera ton to generation of horsemen, and the spell of the tidewater aristo- cracy still fingers in the lavender of memory.-Maj. Gen.
