IS A SAFE ELECTION BET By A. R. GROH. There is a city of over 350,000 popu lation in the United States where Wilson won't get a single vote. Rather a startling statement, we must admit, but it is true, neverthe- ess, and you can bet your money with any presidential betting bug who wants to disagree with you on the proposition. Hughes won t get any votes there, either. For this city is Washington, D. C, whose citizens are not allowed to vote. (Not such a bad joke, eh?) The Washingtonians are even worse off in this respect than the ndians, who, while they can't vote. at anv rate do not have to pay, taxes. The citizens of Washington pay $1."S0 per hundred in taxes. Ihe tederai government pays half the expense of running the city. A few tacts concerning our national capital are of interest just now be cause a distinguished New York gen tleman who was in our tair city Mon day evening expects to make that his home for the next tew years. ' Target for Wits. It is called "The City of Magnifi cent Distances," as nearly everybody knows. But nearly nobody knows that this name was applied origi nally in derision by visitors because the magnifcent scale on which it was laid out 126 years ago was in such striking contrast to the actual size of the place and the few, poor build ings. The wit of these dead-and-cone hu morists did not stop with that. They called it also Ihe Uty ot btreets Without Houses," "The Wilderness City" and "The City of Miserable Huts. Maior Pierre Charles I'Enfant, a French engineer who had served in the continental army, planned it with the big, broad, enthusiastic vision characteristic of the French. It cov ers an area of sixty square miles, just about twice the area of Omaha. Which indicates that the nicknames were not bestowed without just cause. Its noulation today is 358,679, of vhich number 99.029 are colored. For several years aftef the revolution this republic had no permanent capital. Virginia and Maryland both offered to cede a tract to the federal govern ment and George Washington select ed the site. An Englishman had set tled on the spot in low and caned tne place Rome, seemingly an omen of the city's future greatness. Burned by British. The cornerstone of the capitol was laid in 1793 and was finished in 1800. Congress held its first session in the building that year. The captol was burned by the Bntisli in Dunns the civil war the capital was repeatedly threatened by the confed erates. A svstem of fortifications was constructed then, which consisted of sixty-eight enclosed torts witn i.iai guns, ninety-three unarmed batteries and twenty miles of infantry trenches.
