recognized this condition and has
done everything in its power to re-

prices and cost of production. A
great deal has been accomplished and

MOOSE LODGE PLANS TO

Individual Members Aid Hi Ii
Buying Set; Enthusiastic =
Meeting Tuesday Night !:

Discussion of the proposed radio
receiving set at the regular semi
monthly meeting of the Loyal Order
of Moose Tuesday evening in the
Moose hall brought out the arguments
that radio concerts in the Moose club
rooms and Moose hall would interest
many, members; give them cheap en-
tertainment, increase attendance at
the club and at other meetings and so
increase the receipts Of the buffet,
help to rent the hall more often IL
the renters could enjoy the radio con-
certs and would be in general the
best kind of a publicity stunt. :"
One enthusiastic and practical
member said; z"I'l give $40 toward
buying the radio outfit. How many
Others will do the same?." A goodly
showing of raised hands was the re-
sponse., s.>5- -" %
s.ae'How many will give SIS, 81 or
$1?"J and hands GLADLY responded
to each question. So fair start
has been made toward the $500 need
ed. Consequently the radio receiv-
ing set is assured if the committee
men who call on the rest of the mem
bers get equally generous response.
The lodge decided to try out a cam
paign of publicity to rent the open
dates for the Moose hall. Having a
hall peculiarly adapted for lodges and
other meetings, dances, parties ETC.,
with advantages of superior lights,
ventilation, size; location, dancing
floor and convenient kitchen they will
pus these superiorities before the
public in the way which business men
have learned most efficient through
asseries Of Newspaper advertisements.
They start today with space Of

new LIVERY AND SALES
. BARN NEAR .C0MPLE
Modern Structure Erected by
Denison & Burgess Is a
Big Improvement

That the livery business has not
yet passed and probably never will
is evidenced by the provisions made
for livery horses in the new build
ing being erected by Denison & Bur.
CESS on the corner of Third street
and Irvine avenue. This structure is
now about completed and the owners,
DR.. w. X. Denison' and DR.. D. R.
Burgess, are offering space to the
extent Of about 1000 feet for storage
purposes. ~ .s.-'>s:'. .@e y ~ +
The new building is made of con-
crete blocks manufactured by a local
concern, with a full concrete base
ment which will house the livery
horses as we'll as the sale stables, and
is as modern as a stable can be and is
fully fireproof. 9T1z. H rs.
The ground floor will house the
Offices and will also allow the concern
to rent out space for dead storage
of automobiles at a low rate. About
4,4SO square feet of space is. available
for this purpose. On the third floor
there are $4,000 cubic feet of space
suitable for storing furniture and
other household goods. This loft is
to be partitioned off into large rooms
for that purpose. -.
A number of other business deals
pertaining to this building are now
hanging fire and will be annouced
very shortly. 10y
The lot where this new building
has been reared, contained the Pogue
Livery barns up to year ago, one
of the early day landmarks: The
new structure is great Improvement
to Bemidji, for which enterprise

ulated. M. 8 J.

COAL MINING CHECKED

Several Mines in East Forced

49, a Week; Lack of Cars
(By United PresS)

Wilkes Barre, Pa, Oct. 18-Dur
ing the first thirty days of operations
in the anthracite mines, after five
months suspension, production o!
hard coal was curtailed by shortage
of labor, drought that threatened
the existence of washeries and :
lack of gondola cars.
Operators, however, are striving tt
overcome the big handicaps, so tina
production of domestic fuel may sooI
reach normal proportions and the
tonnage will amount to the 100000
weekly.
Many mines in the hard coal reg
ion comprising of about 40 square
miles, have been forced to close
down two or three days week be.
cause there has been no cars to hau
the "black diamonds"
Box cars have been used extensive
ly for hauling coal westward, anc
railroads, by. placing embargos or
"slow freight" arc endeavoring tc
place sufficient cars in mine sidings
to overcome the car shortage.
During the suspension many lab
orers left the anthracite region tc
seek employment in other sections
of the country. Where the mines
resumed operations, skilled licensed
miners began cutting coal but no lab
orers were available for loading the
product in the railroad cars.
Imports from the big cities of the
United States are now pouring into
the mining centers at the rate of 1OO
a day. They are speedily instruct.
ed in the art of welding shovels and
operating automatic leaders.
Every coal washerie in the entire
hard coal region was forced to cur
tail operations because of lengthy
drought. Rain, however, has brought
streams, up and once more washeries
are operating full time.
Indications are that normal pro-
duction of coal yill be reached by
October 20.

ELIZABETH, Oct. 6:-Charging
the Democratic bosses with evasion
on the big issues former Senator
William N. Runyon, Republican
standard bearer for gubernatorial
honors, last night in addressing q
large gathering of women at a re-
ception by the Elizabeth Republican
Women's Club, in the Carteret
Arms, said that innuendo and insin-
uation were the only weapons this
year of the opposition.
The opposition is not discussing
issues. 1t is aiming by insinuation
n i~ndirection to arouse suspicion
against the Republican candidates,
to make it appear that they do not
mean what they say. The Demo-
Gratis are not talking in open terms,
but they infer this and infer that so
You see nothing in reading of their
meetings.
ut would be a fine thing for the
Republican party to fight as the
Democrats want us, to wave a flag
and to fight among ourselves" said
Senator Runyon. I'VE have been
doing that in Hudson until this year
but o we r united. We are go
ing ahead without playing Franks
game" the speaker added.
Senator Runyon referring to
Hague as the despotic ruler OF his
party said: when they seek by
insinuation and innuendo to throw
suspicion on the Republican candi-
dates, they are doing the bidding of
Frank Hague. The voice is the
voice of Teddy the voice is the
voice of George, but the hand is the
hand Of Frank"
Senator Frelinghuysen reaffirmed
his position on the protective tariff.
He also said:
1.-THE Democratic candidate for
governor says he will not sing The
End of a Perfect Day until he is
elected. He will never have the
opportunity to sing it.
TN the last three years." he con-
tfnued, "the governor has vetoed
much progressive legislation enact
ed by the Republican legislature,
which have thereto found it neces-
sary to override him time after
time. The governor and I disagree
On another thing-our obligation
our oath.
THE governor for three years
has openly def1ed and derided the
constitution" asserted Senator
Frelinghuysen. HE calls for the
modification of a law written SO

times during the recital.
The first part of the program was
of a serious nature, while the last
part was patriotic. She appeared

The entire program was well re-
