ELIVERED from Hearst, the Democratic Party of this State $ finds itself with one of the most promising candidates for Governor it has ever had the opportunity to nominate ‘and elect. The personal popularity of Alfred FE. Smith is only one of his Qualifications. wotere—from the Fourth Ward, where he grew up, to up-State sec- ‘tions, where he is well liked. J. JOSE! He knows and is favorably known to thousands of Sut fifteen years in the State Legisla- ‘ture—as member, Democratic leader, Chairman off committees and Speaker of the House—before his term as Sheriff of New York County, developed the man who is now President of the Board of ‘and popular Tammany office-holder. ; Mr. Smith has thought for himself and acted for himself. His trecord in the Legislature won him the interest and respect of some of, the best men in his party. He has shown himself not only a ‘ practical politician but a friend of good government and a legislator Swho is not ashamed to hold ideals and to act from them. His alliance with Tammany must be viewed in the light of sig- nificant facts: Tammany would not have him for Mayor, pivking ‘Hylan as the safer Tammany choice. Nor did Tammany want Mr. ‘Smith as the Democratic candidate for Governor. His selection was ‘due to the strength of other and better forces in this week’s Demo- ?eratic conference at Saratoga: There is no Tammany leader at the present moment whose can- {@idacy could be counted on to reinforce the regular Tammany vote {with a small fraction of the added support that Mr. Smith could {bring to it. Yet Tammany, of its own free will, would have had| -none of him. Tammany’s appraisal of men for its own ends ana| purposes is usually a shrewd one. Its first-off estimate of Alfred KE. . as a possible Tammany candidate is, therefore, worth much as an inverse measure of his fitness to be Governor. ty A timely indication of the way Mr. Smith views the office for “which he has been designated is the following from an interview given! by him some weeks ago: | “The people may be trusted to take care of a man's political ambition if he will take care to do the werk intrusted to him dy their suffrage.

Consright, 1918, by The Prens Publishing Co, (The New York Evening World.) REN'T men wonderful? A And SO ingenuous, and naive—and all that! For instance: He” and I were sitting in a restaurant, And were just beginning to get chatty and comfortable, And the dinner was delectable, and I had on my most soul-satisfying hat and everything was perfectly lovely, F] When, suddenly I saw him straighten up, And that little light leapt into his eyes that every woman recognizes instantly, And he stopped being “chatty’—and became very “up- stage,” And began saying scintillating things, and being aw- fully “clever,” And talking to me from a great distance As though I were an “audience” or a class in psychology, or a part of the furniture, And naturally I looked around for the CAUSE—out of the tail of my eye. And THERE She was! Sitting right behind me, and looking up at him With that rapt, “Oh-isn't-he-grand!" expression! nd I knew just how he FELT—because I've posed that way myself. So I let him go right on posing, and sparkling, and scintillating, And enjoying himself For a long, long time—until the Vampire Lady got up and went away. And THEN—being a woman—lI said: “Well? Who IS she?” And if you could have seen the look of hurt astonishment and injured innocence in his eyes You would have felt as sorry for him as I did. And of course he sald: “Who is WHO? What, THAT woman? ‘I shouldn't have noticed her | I'm sure I don't know! “If it hadn't been for the way she was ‘taking YOU tn’ “And summing up your clothes, and your ways, and all that. “It's wonderful how people ALWAYS look at you and admire you!” And I sald “Really? Oh, you Just THINK so!” And now he {isn't sure— But he thinks his explanation “got across” And he's pleased with himself, both ways! And I haven't the heart to disillusionize him, Because you CAN'T take the vanity out of a man anyway, And {f you COULD, it would be as cruel as taking the wag out of a dog’s tail— It would leave him so pathetic and limp and useless and discouraged, And besides, Emerson says that the imagination should always be encouraged Or someth!: g like that! But, aren't men wonderful! | And SO ingenuous! Their minds are perfect Thermos bottles—for keeping flattering impres- sions | At the right temperature! | What? Ob, YOU'VE noticed it, too?
