SANTA ANA DAILY REGISTER, WEDNESDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 7, 1928 440 ELECTORAL VOTES HELD BY HOOVER (CmmiSmied Fram t) caah, was running ten to six for Hoover. contests Included those of Walsh of Massm- ohusetts, WHealer of Montana.

a disturbance which blew first one candidate and then another along unexpected paths. Copeland of New York was an example. At 10 p. m. yesterday he seemed a beaten man because Gov.

Alfred E. Smith, the greatest rote pstter this state ever had, was hurled in an avalanche under which none of his democratic colleagues could be believed to have survived. But there was a chance in the official county upstate, unfor- nen trend against Smith toward Copeland in New York City and Copeland awoke this morning to find himself conceded the senator- Copeland is not unique, ths same ever-changing battle was being waged in most of the key states where democratic senators were up for re-election. Before sunset Texas may also also Join the bolters. With some 39 counties missing this morning.

Hoover was maintaining a 10.000 lead over 9mith in the Lone Star state, and In view of the dimensions of the republican sweep elsewhere in the south there seemed to be little reason to doubt that Hoover would also get those 20 electoral votes to add to his already unbelievable total. By way of compensation, however. Rhode Island's five electoral votes drifted over into the Smith column this morning by a scant 2000 majority. Without Texas, Hoover has an electoral total of 424 as against 87 for Governor Smith. With the 20 from Texas It soars to 444, a high record for all time.

Even in 1012, the year of the republican split and the democratic landslide, Woodrow Wileon only garnered 433 electoral votes, and eight years ago, in 1920, when the late Warren G. Harding cycloned the nation the republican total was only 404. The overnight shifts disclose that, giving Texas to Hoover, only eight states gave their electoral vote to Governor and Rhode Island in the north, both by scanty margins, and Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia. Mis- Louisiana, and South Carolina. In the south.

Two of the metropolises of the south. Atlanta and Birmingham, went republican for the first time in their history. THIS IS HOW THEY WENT HOOVER'S LEAD TAKES DEFEAT WITH ASNIILE NEARS 400.000 BY RAYMOND I. BORST (I. N.

There was just a wee twinkle In his eyes when he stood in a small room at the national Democratic headquarters shortly before one this morning and dictated a telegram heartily congratulating Herbert Hoover, the president-elect.

But those who know Governor Smith well could tell that his heart was heavy despite his reassuring smile. He really had been confident up to the minute the returns started to come in that he would be elected president. It was a hard blow when he found he had been badly beaten. but it was a harder blow when his own state turned him down. The governor gave out the following brief statement relative to his defeat.
