Der allotted the state.
All A. Taylor will carry the state
close to 10000 over Gov. A H. Rob-

All Indications are that Julian
Campbell republican, for railroad
commissioner, has defeated Geo N.
Welch fer reelection by several
thousand votes.
Burns the young representative
from McMinn county, who cast the
decidig vote for woman's suffrage at
the recent special session of the
legislature, was reelected after a
hard fight
Harding swept the Buckeye state
by over majority of over 10000 and
carried Cox's own county. Harding's
county gave him hansome majority.
Indications are that all state Off
ces in Ohio will be held by republi-
cans and that the entire congress
ional delegation will be republican
The state prohibition enforcement
act was carried by safe majority.
ARIZONA
Arizona, normally democratic
swung into the Harding column by
four to eight thousand. The victory
is due, it is claimed, by the wool and
beef growers desire to have Austral-
ian wool and Argentine beef shut
out of American markets by, protec-
tive tariff.
! MARYLAND
Maryland went republican by61 600
and broke all former records. In this
state we find the first victory for
democrats where two republicans
we're defeated, but three democratic
lost so that the net gain
for the republicans was one. The

Harding of 1900. The big repub-
ican majority is attributed to oppo-

Ten Congressman

Landslides in Eastern, Middle and
Western States; Cox Gets
Less Than Solid South

AS the returns come in and the re-
suit of the election becomes more
fully known, the larger grows the
victory for the republicans. So
heavy have been the majorities and
SO universal the victory for republi-
cans, even in democratic strongholds,
that the country is amazed at the
crushing defeat delivered to the dem
ocratic party. Following we give
some of the interesting features in
several of the states.
KENTUCKY
Kentucky seems to have re-
mained in the democratic column
by a small majority, But Senator
Becham was defeated by rep
ublicn.
HOUSE AND SENATE
Indications now are that the Ee-
publicans will have more than 400
electoral votes out of possible
Sal. In the lower house Of con-
gress the republicans will have
I5o or more una jority, the largest
ever given any party. In the Sen
ate the republicans will have'a ma
iority of 8 or more.
NEW YORK
Gov. Smith, democrat. ran
100000 votes ahead OF Cox in
New York state but was ddfeated
bv 7,,ooo or unore. Smith made
such splendid race that he will
likely be tine democratic Candidate
for mayor of Greater New Work
the next time. Harding's plurall-
ty is consaderablyEmore thara mil
lion. The state Legislature will
be strongly republican,.
TEXAS
The rockribbed democratic state OF
Texas went for Cox as was expected
but one republican coz gressman won
over a broth erin -lawe,f Pos trnas ter
General Bualson.
OKLAHOMA
Oklahoma swung il to the 'Tep-
ublican colnmn and there will be
one republican senator and ,tfwe
sout of eight congressman. One
of the republican cingressman
will be a woman, Miss Alice M.
Robertson. Miss Robertson lsthe
second woman to be sent to Con-
gress, Miss Jeannette Rankin, OF
Montana, being the first woman
two years ago. The state is ex-
pected to give Harding a majority
of $4,000 and the republican sena~
tor 2s,ooo. 1t is also claimed the
lower house of the legislature
will have republican majority.
WISCONSIN
Senator Robert LaFollett, who has
iong been the dominating power III
wisconsin went down in defeat
Though the defeat of his candidate
for the U. S. Senate by about 10000.
Irvine L. Lenrot, the republican lead !
er in the state, was the victor.
Victor Berger, twice elected to con-
aress from Milwaukee and once den
led a seat in congress, was defeated
by republican. The women vote is
credited with the smashing defeat
given Berger, who is a socialist.
Cox ran behind the socialist ticket in
several counties.
MISSOURI

10000, when 10000 was the highest
claim made by the republicans pre-

Calomel ,salivates! It's mercury.
Calomel acts like dynamite on slui-

and quicker than nasty calomel and
without making you sick, you just go

If you take calomel today you'll be
