During the holiday period, it has
been the custom in the past for some
member of the Nugget staff to stroll
along through the main streets of
Nome looking for artistic display in the
form of window decorations, Just to
secure pointers on art and combina-
lions in colors in arrangement of diff
ferent merchandise. The stroller has
been well repaid this winter for max
ing the circuit and taking time to ad
mire the many tasteful decorated win
dows here in Nome and the merchants

veloped such an abnormal bump of

A STUDY IN BLACK AND WHITE.

Comparison-"The examination of two
or more objects in order to ascertain
their excellences or defects" standard
Dictionary.
When two or more men are candi-
dates for an important office, it is
only by comparison of their respec-
tive qualifications that a proper
choice may be made. The desire of
the individual to obtain the position
or his hope for preferment does not
enter into the matter where the pub
lie welfare is at stake When a great
building is to be erected and two or
more architects submit plans and de-
signs, it is only by a fair comparison
of their respective advantages in con-
structien, convenience and cost that
a judicious selection may be arrive
ed at. The personal ambition of the
architects is not taken into considera-
tion. When large manufacturing
mercantile or Industrial enterprise
is to be organized, and two or more
locations therefor are presented, it
is only by a careful comparison of
their relative advantages, from every
possible standpoint, that decision
is reached by the interested parties.
And so it should and must be in
the selection of the site of a great
international exposition the location
of which must be decided upon with
reference to the thing to be celebrat-
ed, with reference to the exhibitors
and the foreign visitors, and with
particular reference to the cost OF
visiting the exposition (both in time
and money! for the great percentage
of our own people. This latter point
is one upon which especial stress
should be laid for reasons evident tc
require commenting upon here.

resources and farmers for her fertile
fields, should neither enter largely
into the question.
The great majority of the Ameri-
can people are interested in this mat
ter, and they must be considered in
it's final judication. An international
exposition worth of the title of
"World's Fair" represents the ex-
penditure of millions and millions of
dollars. 1t brings together the very
best products of the brain, the skill
the art and the industries of all
nations of the world. 1t concentrates
within the confines of limited
area the best possible demonstration
of the history, the customs, the re-
sources and the people of all coun-
tries. 1t is, per Sc, great liberal
education for the visitors within its
gates; and because of the very "rai-
son d'etre" of it's existence, should
be located at that point, be it New
Orleans, or be it San Francisco,
where it will do greatest good, to the
greatest number of people, at least
possible cost to such people.
New Orleans invites "an examina-
tion to ascertain her eXcellnees Or her
defcts," and in substantiation of but
one of her many claims, the accom-
panying diagram is presented. With
data carefully prepared from the
1900 government census reports, and
geometrically correct in proportions,
this study in black and white, "
clearly demonstrates that the desig-
nation of New Orleans will be selec-
tion in behalf of and for the great
est percentage of our population east
of the Rocky Moutains, while the
designation of San Francisco would
be a section in behalf of and for
only very limited percentage of
our population, and that portion
thereof which has just had the ad-
vantages of an excellent exposition.
Predicted upon the population
within the 500-mile radius, an expo
sition in San Francisco would be
| conveniently accessible to only / / 12
per cent as many people as one in
New Orleans. Predicated upon the
1000-mile radius, Frisco exposition
would be accessible to only 9 pei

leans exposition; while upon basis
! of the 1OO0-mile radius, Pacific
Coast exposition would be convenient
to only 19 per cent as many people
as would one in our fair Crescent

SUMMARY OF THE RETURNS
FROM THE ELECTION.

AS given by the Picayune.
Election held throughout the
country yesterday resulted in polit-
ical convulsion of far-reaching effect
similar at many points to the famous
tidal wave Of 1882, and apparently
more widespread in it's effect.
The indications toward midnight
were that the National House OF Rep
resentatives had been carried by the
Democrats, reversing the present
republican majority of 43.
The Senate will probably have a
reduced Republican majority as a
result of legislative elections held in
many states.
In New York State John A. Dix,
| Democratic candidate for governor,
| is elected over Henry L. Stimson, Re-
publican, by a plurality of about 55,-
900, reversing the Republican plural
ity of 10000 in 1908, for Governor
Hughes.
In New Jersey Woodraw.. Wilson,
Democratic candidate for governor,
Is elected over Vivian M. Lewis, Re-
publican, by about 5000 plurality,
reversing the previous Republican
plurality of 5000 for Governor Fort.
In Massachusetts,, Eugene N. Foss,
Dem ocratic candidate, has defeated
Governor Eben ). Draper, Republi-
can, for reelection, by about 10000
plurality, reversing Governor Drap-
er's former plurality of 5000.
In Connecticut Judge Simeon E.
Baldwin, Democrat, is elected gov
ernor, over Charles A. Goodwin, Re-
publican, by about 1000 plurality
reversing the previous Republican
plurality of $4,000.
In Ohio Governor Judson Harmon
Democratic candidate for reelection
appears to have carried the state
over Warren G. Harding, Republican
In New Hampshire, Robert P
Bass, Republican candidate for gov.
ernor, is leading Charles E. Carr
Democratic candidate, by about 5000
plurality.
In Pennsylvania the election Of
John K. Tener, Republican candidate
. for governor, is claimed by large
plurality.
In Rhode Island Governor Pothier
, Republican candidate for reelection
, is slightly in lead over Lewis A
: Waterman, Democratic candidate
with plurality much reduced from
/ that of 1908.
y In Tennessee, the fusion candidate
i Ben. w. Hooper, is apparently elect
| ed by $1,000 plurality.
, Democratic governors claim tn
election in Alabama and Sout
. Carolina.
In Wisconsin the election of tn
f Republican candidate for governor
: Francis E. McGovern, is claimed by
s reduced majority, and the return c
e Senator LaFollette to the Unite

HOOPER A WAIF.
New Governor of Tennesse Picked Up
ON Streets of Knoxville.

Nashville, Tenn, Nov. 9.-Ben w.
Hooper, the newly elected governor
of Tennessee, was found on the
streets of Knoxville less than forty
years ago. The wair, whose parent
age is not known, was committed
to the care of an orphan asylum,
where he received his early training.
When he was ten years old he at
tracted the attention OF Captain
Hooper, of Newport, Tenn, who gave
him an education and his name, and
before he was twenty-one years he
had graduated in law with distinc-
tion.
While he had achieved some dis
tin tion in his home county, having
been sent TO the State legislature
two terms, Hooper was not known
generally in the State before he was
nominated as the Republican candi-
date for governor. He is success
full lawyer and is considered wealthy.
He will be the first Republican
governor Tennessee has had in many
years, and the third in the history
of the State. He was the choice OF
the independent Democrats, as we'll
as his own party, and his campaign
has been a remarkable one.
Although Tennessee is q safely
Democratic state, he has received the
support of some of the leading Demo-
Gratis and on every stump where he
has spoken, Confederate veterans
have sat on the platform.
ROMATIC AND SPECTACULAR
CAREER.
Hooper's career has been romantic
and spectacular, starting in an or
phan asylum and finally leading to
the governors chair. He was a
striking figue in a romance which
led to his leaving Tennessee for the
West, where he grimly determined
to make good, because he had been
taunted with the fact that he did
not know who his parents were.
From a small investment he made
fortune in a few months and re-
| turned to his Tennessee home to
| practice his profession. Later he
| married Miss Annie Jones, daughter
of one of the wealth4est men In
east Tennessee. He has four chill
| dren.
