Water Supply and Power.

Conclusion Of the hearings before the
water power commission on the sub
jet of the utilization Of Great Falls
power and increase Of the water sup
ply leaves the matter now up to the
commission for consideration and rec
ommendation. It has been demon
strated that more water is imperative
ly needed for the capitals use in the
very near future. The figures Of daily
consumption and supply clearly prove
that beyond any possible doubt So it
may be assumed that the commission
will proceed on the hypothesis that
from one of two sources more water
must be obtained for the Districts use,
these sources being the Pete,nss o.
the Pstuxeat II the Fetemse il r.

Money and Patronage.

Senator Kenyon, chairman of the
Senate subcommittee investigating cam
paign funds, is quoted As saying:
eve are going to find out everything
there IL to know about the work Of
both parties. There have bean re-
ports that the republicans were raising
millions Of dollars; that ring of cor
porations was contributing largely to
their fund and that various persons
were Offering federal positions Is . re-
ward for political help from certain
men"
This has the right ring, and the
personnel Of the committee il assur-
ance that the promise will be kept.
The public wants, and will be served
BY, the full and true story Of the &C.
tivities Of both parties in raising the
wind for the present campaign. Not
hesrsay, nor gossip-uncomfrmed, and
some of it probably uncomfortable
but supported facts, will alone answer
the committees purpose and the pub
hes demand.
Let Us hope that the committee may
follow closely all clues leading to re-
ports about pledging patronage for
campaign support It is needless to
say that such procedure is as violative
Of good policy as the improper use of
money. A President should take Of.
fee unhampered by any engagements
entered into in his name about the dis
tribution Of places under the govern
ment. He has a good many places at
his disposal, and should I'll them solely
with regard to public interests.
This inquisition of the Kenyon com.
mittee lends to the campaign a new
feature likely to add both to its gayety
and gravity. If tall stories without
warrant are circulating they will have
to be called in. IF too much cine
work" has been done it will be e1-
posed, and the doors embarrassed.

A Dangerous Risk.

If the government is going to con-
tinne using the old barracks in Po-
tomac Park as storage plant it should
employ the utmost precaution against
loss by theft or FIRE. These buildings
are scattered over considerable area
and are in nowise suitable in location
or in structure for the purposes to
which they are now being put. If ade
quately guarded the cost Of the watch
lis certain to be heavy item. If they
are not being properly safeguarded
and watched the government is run
ming a very serious risk daily.
It is explained that these buildings
are being used for this purpose be-
cause there is no other place for the
storage of the surplus department sup
plies. This is surely most unbusi-
nesslike, makeshift arrangement. It
may be that there is an unusual ac-
emulation of stock owing to the short
ening of departmental work incident
to the after-war reductions.
The danger about such temporary"
utilization of unsuitable buildings,
apart from the risk involved, is that
it may drift into permanence. If those
in charge Of the department supplies
wish to impress Congress with the ur-
gent need of a suitable and secure
warehouse by exposing the govern
ment's goods now to destruction they
are perhaps taking the wisest course
for the sake Of early appropriation to
erect a new, centrally located, con-
venient and freproof storage building.
But it can hardly be believed that the
old barracks in Potomac Park are real
~ the best available storage spaces
for the goods now housed there, valued
roughly, it is said, at about S, o0o,0 900.

the Insight of the dam and enlarging
tie csadait surface. If the Patuxent
10 chosen it may be Is = supplement
to the Potomac or as the sole and in
lepeuaeut source. By whatever method
is adopted nsre water must be had
and scan.
On the question Of the utilization of
the Potomac power the commission
must determine whether, if the Poto-
mac remains q either the sole or the
partial source Of supply, there will be
water enough remaining to develop
sufficient power at the lowest stage
of the river in midsummer to produce
an economic quantity of electric cur
rent. This is chiefly a financial ques-
ton. It must be considered in terms
of the cost Of the plant. not merely
the dam and the power machinery, but
the COST Of the land that will be in
volved through flooding.
There u no need OF argument TO
provo the desuahili4y Of utilizing the
Potomac power. If tho project is
eoonomically feasible. granting first
conzideration always to the water sup
ply, It should Be undertaken, and with
the least possible delay. Tho increase
in the water supply cannot safely be
postponed. The utilization Of the
power Of the river may be postponed
with only an economic loss. The pres
emit hope Of the District is that the
commission will not permit any delay
of recommendation on the score of
water supply increase because Of diff
ference Of opinion regarding the feast
bility or economy Of power develop
ment.
