is HARRIES RIGHT ? \

Cen. George II. Harries, one-tims
II n nager of the largest street rail-
"; system in Washington and now
} military authority of some local
hcte, has told the Crosser commit
5ec, investigating public ownership,
h the people of Washington don't
want municipal utilities. lie ven
b es, indeed, that if there were real
Danger of such a consummation a
Vigorous protest representing the
real sentiments of the community
would be raised.
1t would be nightly interesting if
b demonstration on this point could
be presented. The hearings before
he Crosser committee have thus far
been devoted mainly to hearing peo-
pie who are opposed to public owner
|Hhip, and who in most cases have
been the representatives of interests
(which have most substantial reasons
fpr opposition. They have been
chiefly representatives of private in
terests operating public utilities,
(which do not want to lose their con-
Frol. In other words, these oppo-
nents of public ownership seem firm
b. convinced that they have a good
|kh ng in their control of these prop
|G les. and don't want to give it up.
pr it is a good thing for them, why
would it not be a good thing for the
public?
Washington people who believe in
public ownership will have to make
der voice heard unless the impress
sion shall 60 forth that there is at
best very little interest in behalf Of
This step in municipal progress. The
Times has no doubt that if public
ownership were submitted to vote
|Qf the people, the proposition would
be indorsed by an overwhelming ma
6crtty. But it will not be submitted
6n any such fashion. There is no
machinery for the purpose, and no
to recognize the right of
|this community to such voice in its
own affairs. If there were, the pub
|lic utilities problem would be settled
|in short order. Washington has a
public debt so small as to be almost
negligible, and the most excellent
public credit. It could handle the
proposition of taking over its utili-
ties without difficulty, if only it
could get the chance.
But as between an unorganized,
W que, and purposeless sentiment in
f. sor Of such a proposition, and a
b. ghly organized, resourceful, and
determined opposition, the showing
viii be in opposition. Nothing less
than an aggressive movement to pre-
sent the affirmative side, IL the most
direct and telling way, will effect re-
E its in line with the interest and
fhe public opinion of the city. This
j. the time to make plain what
Washington thinks of this PROPOSE
Etion. The municipal authorities have
ceclared for it, and the Crosser COM
rittee is making an inquiry, whose
results will largely depend, in all
] -elihood, or the expression of local
santiment regarding the whole ques-
ton.

THEN

One hundred years ago today the
presidents palace" at Washington
was Quilted by fire, and from this event
il became universally known as the
White House 1t was at the time
Of the war of 1912. In the Pickering
light Of burning Washington the scar
let coated figures of the incendiaries,
the soldiers of the British king, were to
be seen rioting on the streets of the
city they had captured after President
Madison and his cabinet and most OF
the citizens had fled al their approa CHI.
In the general fight, Dolly Madison,
the presidents wife, fingered long
enough to cut George Washington'c
to safety 1t is related that the pres
idents dinner was still steaming on the
table when the British burst into the
palace" as it was then called. In the
light cast by the burning capitol, the
treasury building. the arsenal and LOCO
volumes contained in the congressional
library, the troopers rushed to the
palace" Some seized flaming brands
from a burning saloon and thrust them
into the dra peries of the presidents
house. Mirrors, furniture and bric-a-
brac were smashed while the flames
burned until they had Quilted the in
terror and scorched the exterior. When
the palace was repaired the fire.
marks were obliterated on the outside
with white paint. This, it is said, is
the way in which the building became
known as the White House
Evening times-Republican. [volume] (Marshalltown, Iowa) 1890-1923, 1914-08-24
and NOW

Today the White House is visited by
more than 1000 persons every day.
More historical events have centered
around this shining, white mansion
than around any like building in the
world during the past century. Tween
ty-eight presidents and their families
have lived in it, and two have died
within It's walls. Lincoln went from its
red room to has assassination at Ford
Theater; Garfield was carried uncon-
scious to it's shelter where he fingered
in pain from the assassin's bullet many
weeks before he died. The greatest
statesmen Of the world have assembled
here to discuss the destinies of govern
ments and nations. It's magnificent
ball room has been the scene Of func-
tons whose splendor has rivaled those
Of the most sumptuous of oriental
courts. Here the chief executive con-
ducts his business. To maintain the
White House and it's expenses it re-
CURED over $250,000 a year. Under the
head of household expenses, horses and
vehicles, ETC., is the item, $4,000; fuel,
$4,000; lighting, $4,000. Today the
White House has been enlarged to ac-
commodate the growing official family
of the presid ents. 1t has been reported
that since its foundation the American
people have spent more than So, 0O0, 900
to keep it in proper order for their
first citizen"
