Republican House Says Woods.
Frank Woods of Estherville, con
gressman from the Tenth district,
predicts that the house of representa

twenty-seven this next congress.
Woods is chairman of. the republican
congressional committee. Last year
he made a prediction as o the repub
lican majority of the house, which
came within one of it. hence his oruess
this year is thought to be accurate.
Woods' information this year has
rome from the same sources as last

The Hillsdale Baptist is one of the
striving churchea of the city and is

DEALERS FEARFTir.
OF GOAL SHORTAGE
, ' ' ; .
Few Cars Available, So that
Mines Are Being Worked but
Two Days a Week.
NO RELIEF IS IN SIGHT
The coal situation is giving the
dealers considerable alarm, fearing
that a cold spell may come at any
time and find them with their stocks
reduced to the lowest point in his
tory, at this season of the year.
During the last twenty-four hours
coal dealers have beseiged -the rail
road freight offices, clamoring for
cars in which to ship in coal. In
every instance they have been met
with the information, "We are do
ing the best we can. but we are un
able to gtft cars."
the railroad freight men take the
position that there is no immediate
prospect of a letup in tlfe car. short
age, asserting that it 'will continue
so long as present high prices for all
products continue and farmers have
these products to sell. i
With all the roads entenna- Oma
ha there is a shortage of freight cars,
especially those designed for coal
carrying. What is true with the
Omaha roads is asserted to be true
with reference to roads elsewhere and
as a result it is next to impossible
to get cars. -,
With the car shortage so acute.
(he mine owners are reported to have
suffered great loss. For instance, all
through the Illinois district," from
whence comes a large portion of the
soffc coal of the country, it is as
serted that, instead of working full
time, the mines are being worked but
two days per week, only enough cars
being available to handle this com
paratively small output.

MR. HUGHES SPEAKS
IN CITY OF HEW YORK
Republican Nominee Says that
Rights Cease to Be Sights
if Not Enforced.
DEMO PROMISES UN KEPT
New York, Nov. 4. Charles E.
Hughes in the first of a series of five
noonday campaign speeches here to
day declared that "rights cease to be
rights if they are not enforced," and
that "there will be no lasting peace if
the nation's honor is not maintairied"
"There has been of late, it seems to
me, a growing tide of sentiment in
this country," he said. "The American
people know very well what policies
are essential to their welfare. They
are not likely to be deceived by any
delusive statements with respect to
either peace or prosperity.
"There will be no lasting peace if
the nation s honor is not maintained.
There' is no lasting security unless
American rights are fearlessly main
tained throughout the world. Our
peace depends on the confidence and
esteem which we secure and Miold by
justice, firmness, by courtesy and by
the manifestation of that courage and
indomitable spirit which gave us our
country and preserved the integrity
of our country.
Firmness is Not Aggression.
"That is not the spirit of war; that
is the way to maintain our self-respect.
Rights cease to be rights if they
are not enforced. It is nof that we
snould have a policy of aggression, it
is not that we should make a braggart
assertion of our claims, that we should
go through the world boastful and
truculent, but it is that wherever our
flag flies the American citizen who is
lawfully pursuing his work should
know that it is the symbol of full pro
tection to him, exercising his rights
wherever he may happen' to be,
whether it is on land or on the high
seas.
"There are those who attempt to
make political capital out of the pros
perity we now enjoy. Everyone knows
Ijow suddenly it arose and how sud
denly it is likely to depart. Our
friends on- the other side made very
eloquent promises. The promises they
make now couursiot be more eloquent

."They haven't touched the cost of

that unwelcome guest, the high cost
of living, is still with us, a. little
