LANDSLIDE AT POLLS CHARGED UP TOJVILSON Democrats Take Political De feat With Good Nature, Blaming President for Downfall. Omaha e njoyed a respite from war yesterday by discussing and analyz ing the political situation as reflected in the votes cast Tuesday. Demo crats were lugubrious over the out come, although some of the philo sophical ones took the outcome good naturedly. A prominent young democratic lawyer admitted that the president made a "bonehead" play when he made his personal appeal to the peo ple to support democratic candidates on a loyalty basis. This stirred the republicans to almost unprecedented action and the voters answered with their votes, to paraphrase an expres sion by Chairman Hays of the re publican national committee. Not Rubbing It In. "Mr. Wilson forces the republican party to lie down or fight! I say fight!" announced Mr. Hays in a statement. Republicans are not seeking to rub it in on the occasion of their nation wide victory. They are willing to commiserate their democratic breth-t-n and to dismiss the inatter with t.e feeling that the democrats had it coming to them. ' "I was not surprised." was the ex pression of Arthur Mullen, demo cratic national committeeman for Nebraska, when he was asked for a statement on the situation. Glory Enough For All. Chairman Baker and Secretary Hollister of the republican county central committed believe there is glory enough for all republicans at this time, and they are not seeking any aggrandizement for the part they took in the local success. Louis Berka, high man in the list of State representatives, takes his honors graciously and thanks his friends. Congressman Lobeck takes his defeat keenly. He is sad. His sec retary, Jim Hanley, however, re fuses to give up, believing that by some hook or crook his boss will yet squeez" in. The democratic central committee concedes the , election of Jefferis. Election Commissioner Moorhead will start the official canvass within a few days. The soldier vote will be reported to the commissioner by the secretary of state. It is not believed that this vote will affect any results as announced by the un official count. THE BEE: OMAHA, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 1918.

EAT LESS MEAT IF BACK HURTS Take a glass of Salts to Flush Kidneys if bladder bothers you. 7 Eating meat regularly eyentual y produces kidney trouble in some form or other, says a, well-known authority, because the uric acid in neat excites the kidneys, they be :6me overworked; get sluggish; :log up and cause all sorts of dis :ress particularly backache and mis ery in the kidney region; rheumat ic twinges, severe headaches, acid stomach, constipation, torpid liver, sleeplessness, bladder and urinary irritation.

Much Coal Stored in State; No Shortage is Expected Operating officials of the railroads of Nebraska assert that there has never been a time when the roads faced winter better supplied with coal. For several weeks at the coal ing stations coal has been bought in large quantities and storage houses filled to capacity. What is true with reference to railroads storing coal applies as well to dealers in the towns. Dealers commenced at an early date to lay in their winter stocks and every where their bins are filled. Con sumers have taken the cue from the railroads and dealers and stored coal. At no point is a shortage antici pated unless the winte. should be unusually long and very severe.

Recommend Special Tonic to Overcome Ill-Effects. Medical authorities agree that the after effects of Spanish Influ enza and even the ordinary "grip" often leaves the patient in a more or less degree weakened in one or more of the vital organs such as the lungs, heart, stomach, 'liver or kidneys. Pneumonia, chronic bronchitis and tuberculosis find fertile soil in the weakened lungs. Bright's disease, diabetes, apo plexy, cystitis, etc., often come in later to claim the convalescent pa tient. Dyspepsia, weakness, nervous ness, malnutrition and kindred ail ments are known to be more preva lent after an epidemic of La Grippe. Liver and bowel disorders, too, are inclined to further delay the return of perfect health. In fact, weeks and months may elapse before complete good health returns to the victims of this dread malady. It is the part of wisdom not to dispense with your physician's services too soon, for in time he will usually advise a good tonic upbuild ing medicine that will aid in restor ing vigorous digestion and full nu trition. Physicians and the public universally recognize the safe, sane, rejuvenating power that lies in the bitter herbs and barks, such as Cal asaya bark, Palmetto root, Damiana, Nux Vomica and also in Iron Pep tonate and Phosphide. These drugs represent the main constituents of three grain Cadomene Tablets and as the formula is printed on the la bel any person should feel that here is no secret done or nostrum, but a genuine beneficial tonic, and such it has proven to thousands, both old and young. Elderly folks especially find permanent strength and im proved vitality very quickly. Diges tion improves, appetite returns, rest ful sleep follows and soon a strong vigorous body ' and a harmonious nervous system rewards the con valescent. AJ1 good druggists sup ply Cadomene Tablets in sealed tubes with full directions. Show Webster's Cards Make It Appear He Knocked Norris John R. Yebster, Urnaha. candi date for regent of the Nebraska university, and who, according to the returns now in, was elected by a large majority, is considerably worried over an unfortunate cir cumstance that is charged up to the Omaha Distributing company. Mr. Webster ordered a quantity of campaign cards, to be placed in the hands of voters. It so hap pened that about this time a faction that was opposing the re-election of Senator Norris ordered a lot of circulars and hired the same com pany to distribute them. The cir culars were a bitter attack upon the senator and it so happened that they were distributed along with the Webster cards, some cards be ing folded in the circular. Fred L. Levine, manager of the distributing company, has supplied Mr. Webster with an affidavit in which he says that the distribution of the cards and the circulars in the same covers was his fault. He adds that he did not consider the effect of distributing the cards and circulars together and at the same time, but did so because he was short of help and adopted the plan in order to save time.
