JUST
AS PREDICTED
GRAHAM VIEW
Congressman, Reelected to Third
Term, Says He Never Had
Doubt Of Outcome.

Mercer county Republican can
didates were carried into ONCE with
the. landslide evident throughout
the nation.
W. ]. Graham of AledQ. congress-
man Of the Fourteenth district for
two terms. was reelected on the
Republican ticket by a vote ap-
proximating two to one over his
opponent. Andrew Olson. Mr.. Ora
ham, in his statement to an Argus
reporter this morning, declared
that it was no more than he had
expected. He said: Owing to the
great amount of dissatisfaction
with the Democratic administra-
ton of governmental affairs there
was not a doubt in my mind but
that | would be reelected to assist
the new president by cooperating
with him in congress. During the
last two years l have been enabled,
through my position as chairman
Of an investigating committee. to
unearth considerable evidence of
Encouragement by the present ad-
ministration. Upon my return to
Washington I will take up the
work where it was left of in the
spring and do all in my power to
represent the people of the Four
teenth congressional district and
assist President Harding in
Strengthening up the affairs of the
nation.
II would like to thank the people
Of the Fourteenth congressional
district, through The Argus, for
the splendid support given me and
the entire Republican ticket in the
election yesterday. l expect to be
in Rock Island several times be-
tween now and the time l return
to Washington in December. and
will in all probability explain sew
eral matters which l have touched
upon during my campaign for re-
election"
Contrary to predictions by Dem
ocratic leaders in this county, the
race for states attorney between
Paul ]. Graham. Republican, and
Virgil H. Duvall. Democrat, was
not excitingly close. From the time
the first reports were received it
was evident that Graham would
win in the Republican shower Of
votes in this county. His victory
over Duvall was by a majority of
slightly over 5000 votes.
Other county winners were Sam
uel A. Nelson. reelected as clerk Of
the circuit court by a majority of
$500 over Henry Blackstone. DR..
A. N. Mackey was unopposed for
the Office of coroner and reelected
to that position.

An Inside Bath
Makes You Look
and Feel Fresh
Says a glass Of hot water with
!, phosphate before breakfast
keeps illness away.
This excellent, common.sense
health measure being
adopted by millions.

Physicians the world over recon-.
mend the inside bath, claiming this is
of vastly more importance than outside
cleanliness, because the skin pores do
not absorb impurities into the blood,
causing ill health, while the pores in
tho ten yards of bowels do.
Men and women are urged to drink
each morning, before breakfast, glass
of hot water with a teaspoonful of lime.
stone phosphate in it, as a harmless
means of helping to wash from the
stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels the
previous days indigestible material,
poisons, sour bile and toxins; thus
thus cleansing, sweetening and purify
ing the entire alimentary canal before
putting more food into the stomach.
Those who wake up With bad breath,
coated tongue, nasty taste or have a
dull, aching head, sallow complexion,
acid stomach; others who are subject
to bilious attacks or constipation should
obtain a quarter pound of limestone
phosphate at the drug store. This will
cost very little but is sufficient to dem.
onstrate the value of inside bathing.

SIRUP FROM GRAPE JUICE
Plan Proposed by Experts Of the Uni.
versity Of California Would
Seem to Solve Problem.

To meet the ban on the manufa cture
Of wine in the great grape-raising
areas the agricultural college of the
University of California has develop
ed practical method of converting
grape juice into excellent strip. 1t Is
the belief, says the Scientific Ameri-
can, that converting grapes into strip
instead Of wine will double the value
of the fruit. The estimated value of
the crop of $4,000 tons of wine
grapes. grown annually, is four million
dollars; if the crop is made into strip,
it should have value of eight million
dollars.
While the experts at the agricultural
college have been working on the prob
lem, an Independent chemist and
grape expert has succeeded in produc-
ing strip from grapes that meets
all the requirements Of commercial
product. According to figures that he
submits, his method will produce
sirup at cost that is slightly lower
than that of the other method. 4.
One Of the interesting sides of. the
question is the plan recommended by
the university that all grape growers,
wineries and sugar factories cooper
ate next year in the interests of all
those industries. 1t proposes that the
wineries purchase the grapes, of the
vintage of 1919, and extract and store
the estimated fifty million gallons Of
Juice, that the larger sugar ctories
receive the Juice and concentrate II.
and that they ship the sirnp to the
canneries for use in 1920 II
Il The university has discovered saS
simple and inexpensive process Oh
treating the juice thar Win prevent
fermentation for a year, if necessary.
The chemists, say that the strip can sbe,
used in place of sugar In preserving
some Of the fruits, and can be mixed
with sugar in preserving others.
