The indica- tions are that Hoover has carried North Carolina, although the final® returns re not in. Whether any attempt will 2 made to discipline Senator Simmons n the Senate the future' ‘alone will tell. It is certain, however, that if an attempt 1s made to take away his lead- ing places on Senate committees, there will be a row of major proportions in the upper house. Hoover Gets Missouri. Missouri and Wisconsin, which - were. | claimed by the Democrats, have gone for Hoover decisively. Smith’s lead in wet St. Louis proved to be only about 10,000. The city had been claimed by the Democrats by from 50,000 to 75,000 votes. The outstate went overwhelm- ingly for Hoover, and his lead in the whole State will be about 100,000. To what_extent the last-minute appeal of Charles Nagel, former Secretary of Com- merce and Labor, for Hoover affected the result in St. Louis is problematical, but it certainly did the Hoover cause no harm. 5 Democratic assertions that the La Follette Progressives would rally to Smith and give him Wisconsin were not well founded, although many of the Progressives did vote for the Dem- ocratic candidats. Senator Blaine. Progressive Republican, went out on a limb and gave his support to Smith. Eenator Robert M. La Follette, jr., run- ning himself for re-election, did not commit himself to Smith, although he criticised Hoover and the present Re- publican administration. Mr. La Fol- lette won in his own race by a very substantial majority. Norris Appeal Fails. Senator Norris' appeal to his own Stat> of Nebraska to support Gov. Smith rather than Mr. Hoover seem- ingly made no dent in the outcome there, for the State has gone strongly for Hoover. It goes to show that it is usually impossible for one political leader to throw his own personal fol- | lowing to another. For the first time in the history of the country, the East is not represented on a winning national ticket. Herbers Hoover, the first nominee for Presideat from the Pecific Coast since the days of Fremont, headed the ticket, and Sen- ator Charles Curtis of Kansas was th: vice presidential candidate. Both come from west of the Mississippi River. The success of the Republican ticket .is bound to bring the West, it is believed, into greater prominence in national af- fairs than it has had in the past. Both Mr. Hoover and. Senator Curtis have promised the farmers of the West that legislation shall be undertaken without delay to give the measure of relief which the farmers demand. If it is not accomplished at the coming short ses- sion of Congress, Mr. Hoover is expected to call a special session after he has been inaugurated next March. Great Personal Triumph. great personal triumph. During the pre-convention campaign he was op- posed by strong forces in the Republican party itself. He won his nomination for the presidency largely through his ability to capitalize on the popular sen- timent for him throughout the country. He was successful in many of the pref- erential primarics lest ~ Spring and demonstrated the fact that he had a real .hold on the people themselves. The woman vote of America was claimed by the Hoover supporters prior to the election. Yesterday the women went to the polls in greater numbers than ever before. It is reasonable to suppose that they gave their votes in large numbers to the Republican nominee. The campaign now closed was marked by extreme bitterness on both sides. the campaign made the outcome in some of the States difficult to torecast. However, the accuracy of the poll taken throughout the country by the Literary Digest has been vindicated. That poll indicated that Gov. Smith would carry not more than six States. He has seven and possibly eight. Permanence of Change Doubted. Whether the rift in the Democratic solid South is a mere passing phase re- mains to be seen. Hoover's victory in Southern States was accomplished purely by Democratic votes. These Democrats proclaimed themselves “Hoover .Democrats” or “anti-Smith Demoerats,” asserting they were striving to “save” the Democratic party in this election from a wet, Tammany cnndl-l fate. | da\NhPther the South will find that under | the Hoover Republican administration it is as well cared for as it could rea- sonably expect to be cared for under Democratic rule remains to be seen. Eccnomic causes have in recent years made it more and more apparent that { there 1s little difference in the needs of the Scuth and the industrial North and The race issue has been the main 1. r in holding the Southern States in line for the Democratic party. This issue has dropped more and more into th~ background with the passing years. Sovthern Demcerats resented bitterly the numination of Gov. Smith, and after his ceclaration for modification or re- peal of the dry law, they went over in droves to the Republican candidate.

WEDNESDAY, XOVEMBER Q - 1928. Bossy Gillis’ Fight From Jail Laundry Fails to Land Seat By the Associated Press. NEWBURYPORT, Mass., No- vember 7.—The handicap of hav- ing to spend most of his waking hours turning a wringer in the laundry room of the Salem' jail proved too great an obstacle for this city’s “bad boy” mayor, Andrew J. Gillis, to surmount in yesterday's election and in conse- quence his aspirations to be a member of the next State Legis- lature received a severe jolt. Gillis directed a spirited sticker campaign from the jail, but got only 4,454 votes, while his op- ponent, W. J. Boardman, cap- tured the eighteenth (Essex) dis- trict with 6,061. The “bad boy” is doing a 60- day term for operating a gasoline servige station in a restricted area of the city. HOOVER SWAMPED WITH WELL WISHES (Continued From First Page.) ments, and gave a deep-szated chuckle when he noted thz lead he was piling up in the home State of Gov. Smith. ‘H: was apparently surprised at the out- come in New York State, although he made no public comment. When he found that he had polled but eight votes in Warren County, hardest-hit of the flood counties in Mis- sissippi, he turned to this correspondent with a laugh and remarked: “Well. they can't accuse me of playing politics down there, can they?” Message From Smith. Gov. Smitfl's telegram of congratula- tion came through a press association prior to its actual receipt by the Presi- dent-elect. A newspaper man handed it to some one in the crowd, who waved for silence and read it aloud. A burst of very undignified cheering came from the university professors and other friends. gathered in the homes. Halt an hour earlier. a message of felicita- tion had been received from Chairman Raskob of the Democratic national committec. Among those in the home were: Wil- liam H. Crocker, California’s nationai committeeman; Ray Benjamin, San Francisco attorney and adviser to Hoo- ver during the campaign: Kathlcen Norris, the author and a fellow towns- man of the Hoovers; John L. McNab, Palo Alto neighbor, who made the nominating speech at Kansas City; Thomas T. C. Gregory, another neighbor on the hill: George M. Rolph, a Cal fornia friend; George Barr Baker. con- fidante and hous2 guest: Palmer Fuiler, stepson of Baker; Lewis Strauss, Ho ver's war-time secretary; Geerge Aker- son, a personal assistant, and a host of othors. Dr. David Starr Jordan, president emeritus of Stanford University, and Mrs. Jordan spent part of the eve- ning in the home. Family members present were: Mrs. Hoover, dressed in a_transparent velvet gown of . black with white dots, and with a_diamond- studded elephant pinned to her dress; Col. Theodore Hoover, brother of the President-to-be; Mr. and Mrs. Herbert Hoover, jr., and Allan Hoover. The young and attractive wife of Herbert, jr. wore a dress of purple, with a red rose pinned to the shoulder. She was bubbling over with excitement all during the hectic evening. Returns Flashed to Home. The election returns flashed into the Hoover home over half a dozen transcontinental telegraph and tele- phone lines. As soon as a message was received it was typewritten and rushed to the living room. Allan Hoover, Palme:r Fuller and Milton Esberg., the last named an actor friend of the family, took turns in singing out the returns to a pair of Allan’s college chums who presided at the blackboard. Two boards listed the latest popular votes by States and the third was marked -with the total of electoral votes being piled up from the various States. When Hoover went to bad, after midnight, the total Hoover electoral vote, estimated on the face of the incomplete returns, was over the 380 mark, while that for Gov. Smith was 76. Hoover ex- amined these figures carefully as the guests began to depart. The coincidence of Sousa's presence in Palo Alto for a concert at the uni- versity auditorium was quickly seized upon by J. E. McDowell, secretary of the Stanford Alumni Association, to fit in_with plans he had made for a stu- Inspect Our NEW HOME 1220 13th St. N.W. LEETH BROS. Franklin 764-5-6 Montg.

More than 2500 students were at the concert, and when it was over they piled out in wild confusion, joined with other thousands already hurrying up the picturesque slope and stormed the Hoover citadel. Sousa and his band were hustled into automobiles and driven at the head of the carefree, jubilant army of red-capped besweatered youths and excited co-eds. Virtually the entire population of Palo Alto followed. in automobiles and afoot. Breaking through police and special militia lines thrown about the Hoover grounds, the impassioned throng leaped hedges and shubbery and congregated before the | heavy, iron-bound timber door. Tiers of arc lights flooded the entranceway for the benefit of dozens of camera- men. Sousa dismounted, baton in hand, and was admitted to the house. He shook hands with Hoover, congratulated him, and went out again. His musicians had formed a semi-circle in a space cleared with great difficulty in the driveway. They struck up the inevitable “Stars and Stripes Forever” and another Sousa composition, as Mr. and Mrs. Hoover and other members of the family came out on the step. A deafen- ing shout rent the air, and the photog- raphers were electrified into action. Appear on Roof. ‘The Hoovers then went into the house and climbed, with their other guests, to the roof of a rambling terrace, so that thep could better view the weaving mass below them. Hoover's reappear- ance on the roof was the signal for an- other demonstration, this time of or- ganized proportions. Three college youths shed their blar- ing sweaters, mounted folding chairs and called for a *‘skyrocket”—the well known “sis-boom-ah” with “Hoover” at the end. It was given as only rampant college boys can give it. Then followed a cheer for Mrs. Hoover, another for the band and finally one for ‘“President Hoover.” There were Iinsistent cries for a speech, so Hoover gestured for silence and gave his brief words of apprecia- tion. The band struck up the “Star Spangled Banner” and simultaneously the bombs began bursting in air, The display of pyrotechnics was a thrilling sight against the clear, dark sky. Red flares also were burned outside the grounds. As the band left, the spectators on the roof went inside and the happy crowds began to trickle down the hillside to the strains of “ Auld Lang Syne.” Before the guests departed, a buffet supper was served in the dining room and a similar repast was spread for | newspaper men and others in the press room, set up in one of the lower ter- races. The dining room table was piled high with meat and cheese sandwiches, while coffec and fruit punch was served at one end of the table. In the center of the table were two twisted candle- sticks of silver, with yard-high slender candles alight. Pictures of Campaign. An unexpected climax was the show- ing of motion pictures of Hoover's cam- paign trips through several States and Jjust before breaking up of the party of a complete news reels showing Hoover casting his vote a few hours earlier in the day, and announcing his election as the next President of the United States. When the campaign reels were shown, Mrs. Hoover broke in with an apologetic explanation that “this part of, the program of our little party is not staged by the Hoovers, but by rep- resentatives of the news reels.” She said, with a laugh, that she wanted her guests to understand that she wouldn't have permitted the pictures to be shown had she known there was “so much Hoover” in it. The pictures were pro- jected from a portable machine onto a bed sheet stretched at one side of the living room. Hoover received his first returns as he was preparing to go to the polls yes- terday. They were from two small Massachusstts towns, Mount Washing- ton and New Ashford, and showed him leading Gov. 8mith by a large majority. He smiled as he read them, but made no_ecomment. Then h2 got into a_waiting automo- bile, accompanied by Mrs. Hoover, Mr. and Mrs. Hoover, jr., and Allan, and was driven down the steep, winding driveway of San Juan Hill to th2 uni- versity polling place, in the women's clubhouse of Stanford University. There he found awaiting him several hundred college boys and co-eds who had sneaked away from classes to see their distinguished alumnus and alumna a’nst their votes.

Inside the clubhouse elaborate ar- rangements had been made by a score of news and motion picture photogra- phers to record the momentous event pictorially. A battery of siezling arc lights and a circle of lenses were fo- cussed on the half dozen canvas booths at one side of the room. About 40 newspaper men stood to one side, with paper and pencil, ready to take notes. Students Stand Aside. ‘There was'a line of about 15 students awaiting thejr turn at the booths when the Hoovers arrived. The boys stood asi?», enthused at the opportunity of forming a background for the pictures. The Hoover party stopped for a mo- ment to shake hands with some univer- sity friends in the reception hall and then filed through the narrow door into the floodlights. As the cameras began clicking and grinding away furiously, Hoover walked to a table in the center of the room, at which sat several officials. He sat down in a chair at the end of the table, picked up a pen and signed the necessary pre- liminary voting statement. Arising, he was handed the folded bakot sheet, measuring when spread out about two feet by a foot and a half. He went into one of the middle bodths, drew. the curtains behind him 2nd placed an “X" against the list of Republican electors. There were a Sen- ator, Representative and numerous State referendum proposals to be voted for, too. How.he marked the remainder of his sheet is known only to himself. In Booth Three Minutes. Hoover was in the booth about three minutes. He emerged and dropped the folded sheet into a slot in an old square wooden ballot box—evidently a veteran of many campaigns. Looking up, he shook hauds with A. D. Townley, professor of astronomy and election in- spector, presiding at the box. started to walk away a representative of a talking picture concern stepped forward, a portable microphone in hand, and, unseeen by the nominee, called out, “Good morning, Mr. Hoover." Hoover wheeled around, expecting to greet a friend. He instinctively an- swered, “Good miorning,” and as he sensed the trick, smiled good-naturedly and walked hurriedly back to the door. Apparently Hoover's response was too weak to register. Mrs. Hoover came forward, inquiring as she came, “Next?” She also signed the papers, received her ballot and went into a booth. The young and charmin; Mrs. Hoover, jr., took her turn, follows closely by her youthful husband and by Allan, the latter casting his first vote since becoming 21 recently. The simple formalities over, the group left the room. amid .an outburst of cheering by thos2 in the room, and walked to the entrance to be greeted by another army* .of cameramen and a shouting mass of students and several dignity-discarding professors. The youths crowded. forward and began shaking hands with the nominee. Then thloly indulged n an organized college vell. ‘The Hoover = family laughed and waved as they walked to their car. They were whisked back up the hill to their home and had lunch, while news- paper men rushed to their typewriters and telegraph men to their keys.

Not long after luncheon Mr. and Mrs. Hoover, Mr. and Mrs. Hoover, jr., and Lewis Strauss, war-time personal secre- tary of .the nominee, entered a closed grandchildren, the 200-acre campus. to get at the wheel of & green sport car, and he sped away to visit with class- mates and other university friends. scooped up a basket of gorgeous yellow roses that had been presented his mother, and took them to the bedside of the faculty member. Back from the Hoover went into his sunny, oak- paneled study, seated himself at a desk, meager preliminary returns. He was joined by the other members of his friends. At one side of the desk rested the microphones into which he ha spoken his final appeal to the electorate. He finished reading the patches on his desk, and turned to gaze through the broad window upon the inspi: panorama of sloping wns, and bare-limb eucalypus trees and waving palms stretching away at his feet. Beyond the trestops he conld see the silver sliver of water that is San Franc'sco Bay, and behind a misty veil on the horizon loomed the shadowy outlines of the Contra Costa Mountain range. Away to the east he could glimpse the stately top of old “Palo Alto” itself—the gigantic pine on the shore of the bay for which the thriving little college town was named. Memories Come Back. Perhaps his thoughts drifted back to the day 33 years ago when he ap- prached that then virgin campus, a bespectacled youth of 17 with little money, and a few night school credits and a world of ambitious determination. It was that firmness of purpose that carried him through the newly-founded university to a B. A, degree and started him on his phenomenal rise from col- lege-bred mine laborer to candidate for the presidency of his country. H> was called from his reverie to supper in the oak-beamed dining room, to the right of the spacious living room as one enters the front door. He ate a hearty meal, as is his custom. By the time supper was completed the family circle began.to swell, with the arrival of groups of university friends and neighbors. The expensive console radio, at the left of a massive stone fireplace, was turned on so that the visitors could hear the reports com- iny by air. Meanwhile, there were arriving at the house, great bundles of gifts and batches of telegrams. A novel “tele- gram,” made of cake by a Washington caterer who had pafnstakingly lettered it to appear like a telegraph blank, bore the following inscription: ‘“Hon. Herbert Hoovet: Palo .
