A Standing Invita-

VVEATIIER-KEPT foods are risky foods to eat.
Exposed to germ-laden dust and myriad impuri
ties, such foods are easy' prey' for all the enemies of
wholesomeness.
Yet people will take such chances in the fall

Perhaps because they have never discovered
how jpnall an investment for ice is necessary at this
time of the year.

PHONE 6.
Washington, D. C. Nov. 9—Satis
faction was expressed by Cordell Hull,
chairman of the* Democratic National
Commttee, tn a statement last night
on the reeulta of yesterday's election.
“In the name of the Democratic
National Committee," he said,
gratuiate the loyal Democrats and the
Independent men and women of both
parties, men of legitimate business,
farmers, workingmen, ex-service men
and every day citizens victimized by
the Republican administration through
false promises and non-performance
who made possible tho splendid Demo
cratic victory of Tuesday last. A large
share of the credit is due to the press
of the country. Democratic and Inde
pendent, and tho leading Republican
papers which abandoned parUsanship
for the material and moral interest
of their readers, a public service and
political service which I gratefully ack-
ledge and of which I am highly
appreciative.
e extent of tno victory in the
Ion of Democratic governors in
Republican state:: and the senatorial
candidates Is known. The returns on
the House of Representatives have
been slow in coming in and are In
decisive, so much so, that this time it
cannot be Bald with certainty which
party has carried the House. The in
dications are that the House will be
close. Whether It Is Democratic or
Republican, it is a Democratic victory
and a Republican defeat, because In
the even of Republican success, the
margin will be so close that the Pro-
gpresslve and radical element will
hold the balance of power and the
publicans therefore will not control
the House. The same Is already
of the newly elected Senate.
"The great swing back to Democracy
removes any pretext for discussing
third party movement so far as tl
Democratic party is concerned. The
Democrataic party can bo rolled
to apply sound principles and policies
of government to every day conditions
and in so doing to enact all sound and
progressive ideas as It did after coming
into power in 1913. It is the only
party that offers to every class of per
sons and of legitimate business and to
every section of the country a com
plete national program of sound and
wholesome principles and policies.

BAINBRIDOE MAN DIES
FR0A1 GUNSHOT WOUNDS
Atlanta, Oa., Nov. 9 —Virtually
plete returns disclosed In news
patches received here today, showed
that the effort In California to estab
lish public ownership of hydro-electric
utilities, which wss being watched
with much Interest throughout the
country, had been defeated in the
heavy voting of last Tuesday, by about
three to one.
Earlier and Incomplete returns had
placed the ratio of the vote at about
and one-half to one. Because of
the great Interest shown In the project
by the California electorate, some dif
ficulty was being experienced in reck
oning the final result. The defeat was
general, voters in every section of the
having cast overwhelmingly un
favorable ballots.
The proposal, known as "The Water
and Power Act," provided for the Is
suance of 3500,000,000 of bonds to take
hydro-electric utilities, and for
the appointment of a board "to de
velop and distribute water and electric
An energetic campaign In behalf of
the measure, in which many newspa
pers and labor organizations took an
active part, preceded the balloting.
The opposing forces were led, among
others, by Judge Matt I. Sullivan, not

the Supreme Court of California.

rights and electric plants and other
property, which, In Its Judgment may

provides that tho determination of the
board that the taking of the property

shall be conclusive evidence of such
necessity. The Supreme Court will

diction was accurate so far as the
next Congress Is concerned.
Only In Iowa were the Republicans
able to send back a solid delegation.
In other states delegates were shot to
