WOODS WORRIED
Congressman's Worry Is Caused by
Apparent Certainty that Progress
ives Will Have Candidate.
p AGAINST ROOSEVELT MEN
In Sending Private Secretary to Iowa
He Is Following Precedent
Set by Senator Cummins.

Washington, D. C-No COMPRESSION
al district in the whole United States
is giving so much worry right now to
Frank P. Woods, chairman of the re-
publican congressional committee, as
his own, the Tenth Iowa. The worry
is caused by the apparent certainty
that the progressive party will next
year have candidate for congress
in his district The report that Thor
Hanson, of Bode, might make bold to
contest with him for the republican
nomination did not disturb Mr.
Woods. He is serenely confident OF
being able to defeat for the nomina-
ton either Hanson or Paul Stillman
or John Hamil or Joseph II. Allen, or
any other man the progressive repub-
licans might want to trot out, but this
threatened danger of having to go up
against theodore Roosevelt's follow
ers' and the friends of Wilson adj
ministration when the November cleo
ton rolls around is quite another mat
ter. so the smooth congressman from
the Tenth has got busy. He has sent
us secretary to the district to admin
ister a sleeping powder to every bull
mooser who even looks as though he
would like to take chance at con-
sressional race. That's the congress-
mans main business these days-try
ing to keep a progressive candidate
out of the field in the Tenth district
of Iowa.
Representative Woods, in sending
his secretary, whose salary is paid by
the government, on this private miss
ion, is only following a precedent set
last year by his chief, Senator Cum
Minis, who sent his committee clerk,
Johnnie Bryan to Iowa, while con-
gress was in session. to manage the
campaign to secure for the senator
the twenty-siX delegates to the repub-
lican national convention

Stated for Certain That Bids Have

From Manila to Sioux City
DOUBLE TRACK FROM CHICAGO

Track Between Sioux City and

Manila. Nov. 21--It is stated fol-
certain that bids have been asked fol-
double tracking the Milwaukee be
tween Manila and Sioux City. The
matter has been agitated for years
and more or less definite assurances
of the possibility have been given out
from time to time, but the actual call
for bids on the work would seem to
remove all doubt as to the roads &C.
tual intention in regard to the plan.
Double track work is just now be.
ing completed from Chicago to Ma.
nilla, and this, coupled with the as,
surance of Traffic Manager Miller that
St. Louis to the coast service via Des
Moines and Sioux City was included
in the service plans of the company
for the near future, is taken as posi-
tive indication that the long desired
transcontinental service is soon to be
a realization.
improvements on the Milwaukee be.
tween Chicago and Manila included
besides the double tracking, a great
deal of road bed Improvement and the
Strengthening of the line in many
cases, the object being to cut the dis,
lance to the Missouri river as short
as possible.

100000 between Sioux City and Ma

ILWAUKEE TO DOUBLE
TRACK TO SIOUX CITY

1--WE have had the question OF
through sleeper from st. Louis through
Des Moines and Sioux City to the
coast via the Milwaukee up for over
a year, but have been unable thus far
to bring about this much desired
SERVICE" states Mr.. Mcnamara in one
Of his letters.
F. A. Miller, general traffic man
ager for the Milwaukee line, stated
that his road also had had the mat
ter under consideration for some time,
but interposed the objections that the
main line trains which would have to
carry the additional sleeper service
are already too heavy and that with
the present train schedule the Sleep
er service between Des Moines and
Sioux City would only benefit passen-
gers going in the one direction, i. e.,
from Des Moines to Sioux City.
Mr.. Miller stated, however. that with
improvements being completed on
the main line and the other plans un-
der way, such service, both as to
freight and passenger traffic was one
of the elements of improved service
which the road hoped to make avail
able in the near future.
The matter of through train service
and better connections for passenger
and freight traffic between Sioux City
and St. Louis is now up to the Mil
Waukee company. Last year a COM
mittee of men from the Sioux City
and St. Louis Commercial clubs wait
ed upon President Earling with their
grievances and at that time traffic
was made from Des
Moines to Moravia, Mo-, over another
route. What these two cities want is
a more direct route, this, also, is what
the Milwaukee needs between these
points This route is directly through
Manila to Chillicothe, Mo-, thence to|
Kansas City and st. Louis. Some
years ago the Milwaukee company
made survey and mapped out this
route but at that time the plans of
building this part Of the road We're
given up The matter of through train
service between Sioux City via Ma
nilla to ST. Louis is on account OF the
new business from their coast ex-
tension line up to the Milwaukee road
now with prospects of favorable re-
suits.
While railroad officials are reticent
it has Become positively known that
bids have been asked for for the work
between Manila and Sioux City and
the new conditions will have to be
met. This eventually means the en-
of the line to the south from
Manila to Chillicothe, thence to st.
Louis as above stated.-Times.

Wilson's Name on Land Patent.

Carroll, Nov. 24-There is one pat
ent recorded on the books of Carroll
county, conveying title to land in this
county. which bears the signature of
Woodrow Wilson, president Of the
United States. Probably there will
never be another patent filed in this
county with that signature, as all the
lands in the county passed from gov
eminent ownership more than forty
years ago and this one case is due
only to an error made in the patent
issued in 1858.
The land covered by the patent is
located in Richland township and is
described as follows: West half of
southwest quarter and southwest quar-
ter of northeast quarter of Section
SO. township SO, range SO. The pat
ent runs to Andrew l.. Cadmus, who
located the land and paid for it wit
soldiers land scrip in 1858, the pat
ent issued to him at that time being
dated March 1, 1858, and bearing the
signature of James Buchanan as
president. The soldiers land scrip,
with which Cadmus paid for the land
to the government had been originally
issued to Joseph Boyle, soldier in
Captain Morgan's company. Georgia
militia. in compensation for service
performed by him in the Florida war;
The scrip or warrant had been as
signed to Cadmus.
The patent issued in 1858, however.
had an error in the description which
seems to have passed unnoticed for
MANY wears The nraSent owner ChaS
Rafferty,, found it necessary to secure
correction of the record relating to
his title to the land and the only way
in which this could be accomplished
was by cancellation of the old patent
and the issuance of a new one. OF
course the new patent had to be
signed by the president now in office
and that is how Woodrow Wilson's
signature happens to be attached to
document conveying lands which
have not belonged to the United States
for more than tifty-fve years.
