WHEN YOU VOTE TO-DAY.

Your vote for republican today will not be
a vote to dscredit the president in his conduct
of the war. 1t will not cause any bonhres to be
lighted in Berlin.
The republican party nationally stands. as it
has always stood, for the preservation of Amer
lean interests, American rights and privileges,
at home and abroad. Its record on this is clear
and clean; that of the democratic party is not.
A republican congress will guarantee that the
welfare Of the whole country, and not Of a sec
ton, will be considered In the future. 1t will
also make sure that the tremendous powers now
yielded the executive will be restored to the
people when the war is closed
A republican state administration will mean
the restoration of business management to pub
lie affairs The republicans in Nebraska are
pledged to the adoption of budget system for
state expenditures. The democrats have made
no pledge on this or on any other point relating
to state affairs.
In Douglas county republican success means
that the business of the county will be taken
from the hands of gang that has squandered
public funds, shamelessly gerrymandered the
county and wnked at the scandalous "gymna-
sum-" and for the perpetuation of which the
"bootleggers' bund" is putting forth its utmost
efforts
In word, vote for the republican ticket
is vote for honesty and decency in public ad-
ministration. Republicans are quite as much
devoted to winning the war as the democrats
and much more strongly pledged to efficiency
in government.

Acme of Imperial Hypocrisy.


Giving his august approval to the bill making
changes in the constitution of the German fed
Grafton, the kaiser attains new depth in hy-
pocrisy. After SIMULTANEOUSLY expressing his
emotions at the change he goes on:
Thus comes to close period which will
stand in honor before the eyes of future gen.
erations. Despite all struggles between in
vested authority and aspiring forces, it has
rendered possible to our people that tremen-
dous development which mperishably re-
vealed itself in the wonderful achievements of
this war;"
And of what achievements does the kaiser
thus boast himself? -Four years of savage war
fare have drenched the world in blood at time
when it might have been making its greatest
progress. Civilizations name stained with a
record of such horrors that men scarcely dare
to whisper among themselves Misery, want,
starvation, disease, all the horrid train of mans
.dlrest Affections, have followed in the wake of
the kaisers power, and constitute the wonder
full achievements of this war!"
And the man, above all others, who is re-
sponsible for the woe, the heartache and the
physical suffering concludes his exhortation
with an adjuration to his followers to persist
and with firm step win a, bright future from
the gloom of the present. Is comment neces-
sary?

Mischief That is Dangerous,

Somebody in the office of the secretary of
state has made a mischievous and probably dam
gerous blunder in connection with the official
ballot The plain provision of the law in regard
to certifcation of the constitutional amendment
for insertion with its party endorsements has
not been carried out. Under the law of 1917 it
is obligatory on the secretary of state to so
certify all amendments that have been approved
at the primary.
This was not done. The effect is that
straight party votes may not be counted for the
amendments. This in turn may be the means
of defeating the suffrage" amendment So
called, and thus extend to aliens the right to
vote for president again in 1920.
When Governor Neville recommended to the
special session of the legislature last spring that
such privilege be granted to the first paper
voters he was actuated by the hope of the local
kaserites that their strength would not be i'm
paired by shutting the ballot box to unnatural
lied aliens. The Bee exposed this then, and the
legislature declined to follow the wink from the
executive.
Now, by grace of negligence in the office OF
the secretary of state, it is made possible that
what the kaser-coddlers could not get through
the legislature they may in another way. If the
secretary of state had been in his office, attend
ing to his duty, instead of pursuing his chimer-
ical plan Of defeating "Uncle Nose" Kinkaid for
congress, maybe the "blundsr" would not have
occurred.
Voters should be careful to mark the ballot
yes" on both constitutional questions, and
make sure their choice is registered.

Resents Dictation.

Omaha, Nov. S.--To the Editor of
The Bee: l have voted the demo-
cratic ticket since Cleveland's time,
| over 26 years. But the demand
from the White House on my vote is
so un-American and undemocratic
that l will not stand for it, even if
l have to fight for it as the soldiers
in France do for democracy and
freedom. Wilson's demand on the
American voter is insulting to a free
people and disgrace to the position
he holds as our chief executive. If
he had said, Fellow Citizens, Voters
of America, I am the president of a
free people and l refrain from
debating to you how to use your vote
as freemen, but as this election is
on while the greatest war for lib
erty ever waged is in progress, and
that we live in reconstruction time,
when the incoming congress must
decide many far-reaching and i'm
portant questions dealing with our
country's and peoples future well
fare, | therefore ask you, whom
soever you vote for, democrats, re-
publicans or others, to vote for 100
per cent Americans, that we may be
able to settle the war and Americas
future welfare to the approval and
satisfaction of free people to the
glory Of our land and institutions.
But President Wilson did not
speak to us as a free people. There
fore shall on election day cast my
vote for none but republicans, that
l for one may show that I have de-
cided to vote as free man.

Tottering Thrones

Tottering The business of being king is
getting to BE unpopular. Constantine of Greece
was the first to tumble from his throne.
Nicholas, the worlds greatest autocrat, was the
next to fall, and later lost not only his sceptre,
but also his life, through the treachery of the
bolsheviki. Now Ferdinand, the Fox of the
Balkans" finds it healthful to retire from the
kngship of a country that he has led to ruin.
Kaiser Karl has not been sure Of his Austrian
throne at any moment since he succeeded the
venerable Francis Joseph, Whether or not one
may accept the news dispatches which represent
Kaiser Wilhelm as having fallen into sort Of
religious mania in which "he spends most of his
time praying for the preservation OF his
dynasty" there is no doubt he has seen the
handwriting on the wall The wave of democ-
racy has even reached Japan, the land of en-
peror worship, where for the first time min
istry has been organized on the basis of party
responsibility. In world made safe for de-
mocracy" real kings will seem out of place, and
make-believe king will be an expensive luxury.

The Blow That KILLED Kultur

The blow that told with the German people
and opened their eyes to the evils of war and
the greater evil Of autocracy was no verbal
dialectics, but the presence of 100000 Ameri-
can troops in France under the general leader
ship of General Foch. This was the great les
son, Wilson's real answer, that they first learn
ed last July, which has deepened as the weeks
have gone by. For careful study of the ut
>terances of such German newspapers as are or
were supposed to represent the people in Ger
many shows that up to the allied drive of July
the people were still under the deusion that
Germany could win and dictate terms" and
they were absolutely and wholly unrepentant
Indeed, they not only gloried in the incredible
Russian terms of peace by which Germany got
81, 500,000,000 among the loot, but the Vor-
waerts, now singing so sad tune, actually de
cared that the kind of economic and physical
dragonnade that Germany had set up in Russia
was the kind of economic and political determ-
nation that German arms would demand of the
allies when they admitted they were conquered.
Moreover, despite the ease with which the opn-
ion of the socialist and union workmen's move
ments in the allied countries had been presented
10 the German socialists from the first day of
the war in 1914, they were deaf to any appeal
to reason or humanity or to their supposed
principles so long as Germany was on top and
the kaiser loudly claiming that he would dictate
peace when he was good and ready. But the
100000 Americans Incompatible lighters all,
who have won the admiration of all the allied
commanders, who helped Foch turn the tables,
settled the kaiser. and eventually the German
people began to see things in new light; or,
at least, they say they are in process of seeing
things somewhat differently. Philadelphia

Notice to the Kaiser,

Terms granted to Austria as a basis for un-
conditional surrender are notice to the kaiser
OF what he may look for. Austria gives up
everything and retres from the war, beaten.
Moreover, conditions exacted are such that the
Austrians cannot engage in war on an impor-
tant scale for generations. Its army is to be
disbanded and mustered out, arms and equip
ment turned over to the victorious Allies; its
navy will be for the most part taken over by
the victors, the rest dismantled and interned:
its forts on the Danube and the Adriatic to be
disposed of as the Allies deem most useful.
Most of them will be RACED The Danube be-
comes an open highway. Italy regains the
"irredenta,' or unredeemed portion of its ter
ritory, and Prussia's treachery of 1866 is thus
at last brought to justice. And finally, Austria
is opened to the Allies for approach to Ger
many.
Bulgaria and Turkey capitulated on similar
terms Less will not be offered to Germany.
Now, next month, or next year, surrender is the
only way out for the kaiser and his gang.

Why Acid-Stomach
Causes So uc|l
Bad Health

the rest There is a quick and easy way to do
this. wonderful new discovery makes it pos
sible to remove excess acid without the slightest
discomfort. 1t is called EATONIC, made in the
form of tablets-they are good to eat-just like
bit of candy. Their action in the stomach
taking up drop of ink--they literally absorb
the injurious excess acid and carry it away
through the intestines. They also drive the
bloat out of the body-in fact you can fairly
feel them work.
Try EATONIC and see how quickly it BAN
ishes the immediate effects Of acd-stomach-
bloat, heartburn, belching, food-repeating, indi-
gestion, etc. See too, how. quickly your gen
eral health improves-how much more relish
you take in eating-how much more easily your
food is dgested-how soundy you sleep-how
nervousness and irritability disappear
1t is so easy to get this help-and it costs so
little So why suffer another hour when sure,
quick relief is at hand? Everywhere people who
have used EATONIC testify to its power to
bring quick relief. The testimonials of some Of
these people are so enthusiastic and tell of such
remarkable results as to be almost unbeliev-
able.
If you are one Of those who have "tried
everything" but in spite of it are still lacking
in physical strength and vigor, begin at once
to take EATONIC. Don't put it off. Get back
your physical and mental punch. Have the
power and energy to work with vim. Enjoy
the good things of life. Learn what it means to
fairly bubble over with health. Like thousands
of Others you will say that you never dreamed
it possible that such a wonderful change for
the better could be brought about so quickly.
So get big box of EATONIC from your
druggist today. We authorize him to guarantee
EATONIC to please you and you can trust your
druggist to make this guarantee good. If it
fails in any way, take it back-he will refund
your money. If your druggist does not keep
