Andersonthe little engine that could," read a placard at a California railroad station. But as the independent candidate chugged doggedly through the final hours of the campaign yesterday, even his supporters, seemed to be resigning themselves the prospect that, at least this time, the train was going nowhere.

The Illinois congressman celebrated most of his last hurrah of 1980 in the independent-minded Pacific Northwest and in liberal-leaning Northern California, where students at Stanford University had elected him president in a mock election. Substantial crowds turned out for Mr. Anderson, a small man in a gray suit riding a gray train festooned with red balloons and earnestly comparing himself with another gray-haired man--the late President Harry S. Truman. Within 36 hours, the independent candidate whistlestopped the 70 miles from San Jose to San Francisco, presided over a block party in Los Angeles, addressed a rally in Oregon and held a town meeting in Washington state.

These were states where he could still draw comfort from polls showing him running ahead of his dwindling 10 percentage points nationally, and where he could rally crowds to his desperately reiterated predictions of an Anderson upset at the polls tomorrow. It was his fifth campaign visit to Oregon, where his appearance brought gloom to Carter campaign organizers, fearful that every vote for Mr. Anderson would drain more precious support from President Carter, who is running neck and neck with the Republican candidate, Ronald Reagan, in the Pacific Northwest states. But the signs that Anderson supporters carried were wistful, providing perhaps a more eloquent postscript to the Anderson presidential quest than the candidate's bitter tirades against Mr. Carter and his scornful rejection of Mr.

Reagan. "Anderson -however long it takes" and "Anderson in '84" read placards that might have summarized the combination of hope and disappointment now haunting supporters of the Illinois congressman. Tom Matthews, a roly-poly little man who looks like a leprechaun and is currently Mr. Anderson's press secretary, acknowledged the reach toward the future while voicing the optimistic platitudes of the present. 'Anderson knows he has started something with this campaign which could significantly change American politics without regard to the outcome of the present election," Mr.

Matthews said in an interview. He admitted that as far as the public perception of Mr. Anderson was concerned, his identification remained with the "educated, informed, and affluent part the electorate." "What has hurt him is the continuing vacuum of information," Mr. Matthews said. This, he suggested, pointed out the fact that "it takes more than five months to penetrate the political consciousness of the American electorate." And as the independent candidate plodded the last miles of the campaign trail, the measure of his anger at the president and his derision of Mr.

Reagan seemed to grow as time ran out. He insisted on the existence of the last-minute realization within the electorate that the choice lay between the "new democracy" of John B. Anderson and the "revisionism" of Ronald Reagan. At the town meeting in Vancouver, Mr. Anderson said, "I am an optimist.

If you're an independent you have to be an optimist." But a woman who listened and applauded vigorously later shook her head. "It's too bad," she said. "Maybe next time."

THURSDAY'S in THE EVENING SUN Commerce plans to give one lucky voter $1,000.

In Coral Springs, those who vote will be eligible for prizes, including shoes, liquor, tires and an automobile front-end alignment. In South Dakota, Democratic Senator George McGovern's campaign is offering a free meal to voters on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation who go to the polls. That offer is being investigated, however, by the state's attorney general, Mark Meierhenry, a Republican. The Council Bluffs drawing will be held 10 minutes after the polls close, Raymond Pogge, president of the Chamber of Commerce, said. He will draw a single-digit number from each of six containers in the courthouse lobby, and the numbers will be strung together and checked against the numbers assigned to voters on the county's computerized list.

If the person thus selected has cast a ballot, he will be declared the winner. If not, Mr. Pogge will draw numbers until a winner is found. A chamber spokesman said the drawing has been cleared with Iowa election officials and does not violate the state's gambling laws. The prize money was donated by businesses in Council Bluffs.

In Coral Springs, registered voters who show up at the polls will have a chance to win shoes, tires, haircuts, dinner, liquor, a front-end alignment, a fruit basket, 2 pounds of shrimp, free ceiling fan installation, an Oriental rug or a lawnmower tune-up. Mayor Ben Geiger, recalling President Herbert Hoover's promise of a chicken in every pot, said that "unlike Hoover, we plan to deliver." "We've been talking about how to spur some interest in the election," the mayor said. "So often you hear people saying they don't know if they'll vote. That's the group we're hoping to reach." The program, sponsored by the city and the Chamber of Commerce, is called VIP -Voter Incentive Program. Prizes were donated by local businesses.

Winners will be randomly picked from a list of voters provided by the election su- pervisor's office. In South Dakota, Mr. McGovern is seeking election to a fourth term against Republican Representative James Abdnor in what may be the senator's stiffest reelection challenge ever. Last week, campaign aides distributed a leaflet urging support for Mr. McGovern and offering free meals at all tribal community centers on election day.

The leaflet also said a free color television set would be donated to the center where the largest percentage of registered voters turned out. Mr. McGovern scrapped the TV offer later, but he still plans to provide free meals. People will not have to prove they voted for Mr. McGovern or anyone else in order to eat, the senator said.

"We're just having a party," he said. "We're not telling them how to vote." The state attorney general said Saturday he had asked the Justice Department to send FBI agents to the reservation to prevent election day "bribery." If federal agents aren't sent to the reservation tomorrow, he said he may send state authorities "to ensure there are no election law violations." Meanwhile, in Hartford, one resident, Daniel Hillard, plans to pass out a "straw ballot" tomorrow asking residents if they would appropriate $1,000 of town funds for an election day raffle. Only 12 percent of the town's voters turned out in the September primary. Mr. Hillard said more might vote if given a chance to win $50.

If the plan is approved, voters in future elections will receive ive a ticket at the polls entitling them to participate in a drawing. If the 50 percent or more of the town's voters turn out, the town would draw 20 names out of a hat and pay each person $50. If the turnout is below 50 percent, the money would remain in town coffers. "If we are to continue to be critical of our elected officials, we should be accountable, and I frankly think, 'no deposit, no return' -if you don't vote, you shouldn't go out and complain," Mr. Hillard said.
