Public sentiment has decided that
the completion of the Panama Canal
In 1915 shall be celebrated with a
(treat International Kxixmltlon In
ahleh all the nation* of the world
may | urtlri|iate; and the quctitlon of
wiiere Mil* Kx|H>*ltion U to be held
will he settled by ('(.tigress at Its ap-
proaching Keaalnn.
New Orleans and San Francinco
are contesting fur the honor of hold-
ing thi* Kxpoaltion, and both cities
have guaranteed Immense minis of
money as an evidence of their ability
to finance go great an enterprise.
An Kxposition worthy of the terra
"World's Fair,” such as New Orleans
proiwiseg to build, will he a great ed-
ucational movement. Its success aa
such, however, will depend entirely
upon the percentage of our popula-
tion who can secure Its educational
advantages, this In turn, depends up-
on Its location, as the time in travel-
ing to and from the Kxitoaitlon, and
the coat In railroad and Pullman
fares, are the most Important factors.
Considering these matters. New
Orleans' rlaima to being the "Logi-
cal Point" for this Panama Exposi-
tion, seem to be fully substantiated
by the following farts: —
New Orleans Is BOO miles from the
center of population In the United
Rtates. San Francisco Is 2,500 miles
distant therefrom.
Within a radius of BOO miles from
-New Orleans there are 17,500,000
people Within the same radius from
Ran Francisco there are only 2,000,000.
Within a radius of 1.000 miles from
New Orleans, there are 65,000,000.
Within the same radius from San
Francisco there are only 6,000,000.
At an average of 900 miles from
New Orleans, there are 70 of our
principal cities with a combined
population of 20,000,000. Averaging
900 miles from San Francisco there
are only 8 large cities, with a com-
bined population of Just 1,000.000.
The average distance of all these
cities to New Orleans Is 792 miles,—
to San Francisco 2,407 miles.
Over 75 per cent, of the people of
the United States could go to an
Exposition there at au average ex-
pense for railroad fare of 112.50, as
ngainst an average of $37.50 to the
Pacific Coast; and for several mil-
lions of our people, the Pullman
fare and Dining Car expenses alone,
for a trip to San Francisco, would
amount to more than all their trans-
portation expenses for a trip to New
Orleans.
This Is an Important public ques-
tion to be settled by Congress at the
session which convenes In December.
Many of our readers will wish to
visit this World’s Panama Exposi-
tion, and if held In New Orleans a
groat many more could spare the
time and money for the trip than
could go to San Francisco. There-
fore, we urge our readers to write to
the two senators from this State and
the congressman from this district,
requesting them to support New Or-
leans lu the contcsL

GOV. HUGHES HAS RESIGNED
Queer Questions.
Queer questions come over the tele-
phone to the newspaper offices. Here
was one that the man who chanced
to answer the phone had put up to
him the other day:
'Say," began the unknown seeker
after the truth, "do you—do you re-
member who it was that killed Abel?"
"Why, Cain, of course,” replied the
newspaper man, who put In several
years at Sunday school. "Who'd Ju
suppose?’*
"Well,” observed the man at the
other end In an annoyed tone, "doggon
if I ain't gone and made a fool o' my-
self. Course It was Cain, now that
you mention It, but I made a two to
one bet with a fellow that 'twas
Goliath, and now I’ll have to go with-
out a new overcoat, I reckon, this next
winter."—Cleveland IMaln Dealer.

Whoro Ho Assumes Duties of
Asooeiato Justice.
Albany, N. Y. — Charles E.
Hughes retired from the governorship
of New York state, submitting to the
legislature a resignation that will take
its place as one of the briefest official
documents on record. It says:
To The legislature:
I hereby resign the office of gover-
nor. (Signed)
"Charles E. Hughes."
Mr. Hughes Immediately left for
Washington where on Monday he ts to
assume the duties of a justice of the
United States supreme court and per-
haps later the exalted office of Presid-
ing Justice to take the place of the
late Chief Justice Fuller.

Knoxville, Tenn.—Col. Roosevelt
reached Knoxville after a stop at
Bristol, Va., whera he launched Into
a defense of his new nationalism and
told the crowd that he waa fighting

the crowds that turned out for him
all the way through Virginia and
Tennessee to be equally demonstra-

A Definite Standard Has Been De-
termined After Years of Effort-
Will Cost Roads $50,000,000.
Washington, D. C.—Definite stan-
dards of safety appliances to be at-
tached to railway cars and locomo-
tives finally have been agreed upon
after nearly a third of a century of
effort.
It is estimated that the proposed
changes in equipment will cost the
railroads about $50,000,000. The agree-
ment was reached by a committee ap-
pointed last week by the Interstate
Commerce commission after a two
days' hearing.
The committee consisted of 15 men,
equally divided between representa-
tives of operating departments of the
railroads; safety appliance Inspectors
of the commission and railroad opera-
tives.

SHORT LIFE FOR KING ALFONSO
Court Physician Admits He Has Mal-

In Death.
Madrid, Spain.—It is said that the
court physicians have admitted that
King Alfonso is suffering from caries,
a destructive disease of the bone and
that Dr. Moudre, the noted Bordeaux
specialist, has been able to retard the
progress of the ldease only slightly.
One of the highest medical authorities
is reported to have said that the dis-
ease will eventually wholly incapaci-
tate the king If it does not cause his
death within a few years.

SAM) BY THE YOUNGSTERS’A LITTLE TOO PRIMITIVE
Bright Remarks Worth Fra-
serving. That Have Fallen From
CMMiah Lipe.
A little girL after listening to the
Mb heaven there stands an
ever open door," remarked that there
must be two heavens, "'cause grand
ma d sever had any open door where
•he la.” And a dear little country
laddie, visiting a city Sunday school
and hearing about the "many man-
sions” of the better land, later ex-
plained that they had been “studying
all about ‘Paradise Flats.’ ”
Ecclesiastical mode* and matters
frequently are puzzling to the little
ones. A small Chicago cl tires waa ta-
ken to n fine church, where the music,
windows, furnishings, and all acces-
sories were aa Impreeelve aa the build-
ing. The minister, living up to his
enviable reputation as an orator. In-
dulged la n brilliant rhetorical flight.
”1 know," he declared, "who gilds
the aun and silvers the start and
paints the flowers and tints the aky
and lends to the rivers their beauty,
to the ocean Its glory, to the shies
their perfect light.” and so on through
long and effective periods. Finally
came the Interrogatory climax: "Who
la It, my friends, who performs all
these wonders? Who la It? Who?"
From the front pew where the baby
listener hnd been all eager attention
came a shrill, disappointed pipe:
"You said you knew!”
Managing a Husband.
Men are like children; they want
managing, although you must never
let them dream that you think so. No
child likes to be ordered about, no
man will endure coercion. But man-
aging! It la an art so subtle, so elu-
sive, that few women understand even
the rudiments of It. Slaters mine, let
us reason together, says Woman’s
Life. In every human being there la
a spark of the divine; It la youra to
fan that spark Into a flame—that la
managing a man—It la to get the very
beat out of him there la to have, and
not two women In ten can do It,
Do not think that there la anything
unworthy In managing a man—to
bring out the best la a high vocation.
Only let us aee to It that we are
worthy of It. There are women who
have made angele of men, but at the
coat of their own divinity. There la
room for more than one unselfish per-
son In a family.
A Kansas woman wants a dlvoroe
because her husband throwa bricks at
her. No man has a right to throw
anything at his wife but bouquets and
hot air.

August Belmont, at a dinner la Sara-

"Hut some of them," he added, "are

“Well, n lady visitor stood one day
