EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph, titled "House Committee To Investigate American Sugar Refining Co. And Others - Racker, 1911," captures a pivotal moment in American political history. The image, created by renowned photography studio Harris & Ewing, features five members of the United States House of Representatives gathered around a table for an important inquiry. The committee, chaired by Thomas William Hardwick of Georgia, was formed to investigate the American Sugar Refining Company (ASR) and other related entities. The congressmen in attendance include John Edward Racker of California, Finis James Garrett of Tennessee, George Roland Malby of New York, and Joseph Warren Fordney of Michigan. Edmond Haggard Madison of Kansas is also present, although his face is partially obscured from view. The politicians are dressed in formal attire, donning suits and hats, and are seated around a long table adorned with spittoons on the floor. The room is filled with an air of seriousness and determination, as the committee delved deep into the inner workings of the ASR during this significant industrial investigation. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing a visual representation of the political landscape during a time of intense scrutiny and accountability. The image is part of the extensive Harris & Ewing collection held at the Library of Congress, a testament to the studio's rich history and its role in documenting American history.
