Though Hoover has a slight advantage in the present returns in Alabama, the vote is practically a stand-off.

The first separate returns from New York City, reported this week, give Smith 105,359 votes, as against 62,205 for Hoover. Almost 30 per cent of those voting for Smith here report that they voted the Repuli- can ticket in 1924, while Hoover gai less than 15 per cent from the Democratic ranks of four years past in the same city. In New York state as a whole, where it is stated that the returns are more nearly complete, Hoover is leading by ‘170,113 to 144,276. This ratio may be reduced next week, the Literary Digest points out, when more votes will be reported from New York City. A tabulation of “how the same voters voted in 1924” shows that est month in the histor: year, were $11,286.78 as to $12,195.20 for the same last year. Carrington Youth Business Normal in Bismarck Last Month September business in Bismarck probably equaled that of the cor- responding month last year, though postal receipts this year were small- er, according to O. Lundquist, post- master, That some of September’s normal postal business was included in the August volume, is the belief of Mr. Lundquist. August was the great- of the local postoffice from a standpoint of bus- volume, the total being $24,- Postal receipts for September, this compared month Heads U Players Grand Forks, N.

Over 76 per cent of Hoover’s vote comes from professed Republicans at the last election, and about 23 per cent is coming from those who stated they voted the Democratic ticket in 1924, Hoover, it is shown, is receiving more than one-half of his support from the Democratic ranks in the states of Alabama, Arkansas, Geor- gia, Louisiana, and Texas. Of the 306,987 participating in this “straw poll” who did not vote in 1924, which includes both those who have since arrived at voting age and others who failed to note their previous political allegiance, over 58 per cent are voting for Hoover and 30 per cent are marking their ballots for Smith. “Previous polling records for the fourth week of a national poll, set by the Literary Digest’s presiden- tial poll of 1924,” the Literary Di- gest states editorially, “are left far behind with this week's tabulation of nearly 2,000,000 votes from 39 of the 48 states. The present tabulation shows an increase of almost half a million votes over the fourth week of the 1924 poll, or Practically 33 Per cent. ‘In fact, no Literary Digest poll has ever stirred such widespread in- terest both among the daily news- Papers throughout the country and also, judging by the mass of pri- vate correspondence daily received, among the individual voters them- Rares. ‘oters from the states in the ‘solid south’ and from New York City appear for the first time in considerable numbers in this week’s tabulation, with the result that the Hoover majority is somewhat re- duced. The Republican lead of more than two to one in last week’s tabu- lation is cut down to less than two one this time. wm, Fences Broken Down The breaking down of Political fences, already noticed in previous reports on the poll, is even more Plainly evident’ as votes from the southern states come in. Alabama shows the Republican candidate slightly in the lead, supported by far more former Democrats than Republicans. While the vote here is practically a stand-off, both Vir- inia and North Carolina give Mr, loover a substantial lead. ‘Arkansas, Louisiana, and South Carolina are the only States, thus far, which have regis- tered a preference for the Demo- cratic candidate. In all of the south- ern states, however, considering the fact that the poll is at present not more than half completed, the vote ean hardly be taken as closely in- dicative of the final returns, “The Digest’s present totals, it will be noticed, show that 160/386 Democratic votes are now in the Hoover column, while Mr. Smith claims the coneiarany, larger figure votes from ke 10 tr of Toe pubiiean r the total of the column headed ‘No Vote, which includes those who vote for the first time in this election and those who neglect r they voted or not, to state whethe: the advantage by - Hoover has 180,102, to 119,754 the majorities in he in expressed through college for Smith. t separate states the votes in the will determine the women from all walks of life been lifted out of the throes of lost vitality, suffering, misery and _ill- the very fi On the other Ad Sprptite, I do now. lysis, of course, ha: many years. but most all, T 0 EX-SENATOR ENDORSES IT Hon.
