They sure did vote in most places yesterday though in some of the rural sections the vote was unusually small. The republicans will have to live under Mr. Hoover with us and if they can stand it, perhaps we can. It will soon be time to talk of other things, for instance, shoes and shiiw and sealing wax, of cabbages and kings. Rock ribbed North Preble turned in the first reports last night, both on county and state tickets, and if all the rest had been as good, the democrats would have been happier. Mrs. Alfred E. Smith celebrated her birthday yesterday. The last time i election day came on November sixth was ten years ago and on that day her husband was elected governor of New York for the first time. * Decatur merchants should take advantage of the trade clays by offering special bargains. Nothing draws as well and a little pep mixed with advertising is the surest road to success. The big battle is over, the smoke is slowly clearing, it will soon be history. Now for real business. Let’s make this the finest community in the world in which to live. We can do it if we will all try at that game as hard as we do in elections. Frank Dailey made a w r onderful race in Indiana and under almost any other circumstances would have been elected by a great majority. He has the right to feel exceedingly proud of the great vote given him. He made a clean campaign and a hard fight. There is this consolation—its up to the republican party to carry the responsibilities which go with state and national success. The country needs a revival of business in various lines and they will be held accountable — or at least should be —for results the next four years. The county ticket in Adams county went sailing through as though the country was not undergoing a political landslide. Outside the vote for the national ticket, the results were certainly emphatic. Candidates for the local offices won by majorities ranging from 1,300 to 2,600 and Mr. Dailey was given a lead of more than MOO. Never in the history of the county has the democratic organization had better support from the workers than tiiis year. Day and night for weeks they made every honest effort to convince the voters what they believed was best for every oue and while the vote is almost weird, it is recognized that the big job of gutting the voters to the polls was well done. Now it's up to the republicans to carry out their pledges to the farmers. Will they do it? Mr. Hoover was very reticent about premises and many feel the vote cast for hint can be taken as a referendum on the question and that the only remedy extended will he a higher tariff which will be slow in results and very doubtful. • ,«MW—B—cThe old world will go wagggiug right

We are all good I citizens and will fight on as citizens | of the greatest land under the sun. I After all our differences we are neighbors, friends, brothers, trying to live to the best advantage and trying to so live that we will he prepared for another life after while . Governor Smith is a real man. He made a capable campaign, fought to the finish, went to headquarters and received the returns with a smile and at midnight sent this telegram to Mr. Hoover: "I congratulate you heartily on your victory and extend to you my sincere good wishes for your health and happiness and for the success of your administration." We like his fine spirit and his manliness in all things. Certainly no democrat need feel ashamed for having fought behind such a leader. Dark as the outlook is today after the worst defeat in history, the democratic party will fight on and It should. One of the dangers in this country is the fact that the republican party is so strong numerically that officials can do anything they wish and get away with it. The two parties should j be so equally matched that the party j in power would realize that unless I they ohey the wishes of the people, j they will be thrown out. It behooves every democrat to resolve that he will do all in his power to maiutain organization and a fighting army. That’s best for all the people. We have no excuses to offer. It j was a landslide. We supported Governor Alfred E. Smith for president and Frank C. Dailey for governor because we believed the country would be better served by them and we still believe it. No man was ever presented to the voters of America who was better qualified to act as president than Governor Smith, no man ever made a cleaner or more complete campaign. The vote was either for or against him. Mr. Hoover being only ! the agency through which the opposition to Smith, registered their protest. The governor will probably never be a candidate again and the people have lost the opportunity to secure his services to a degree that would have been most beneficial. There can he no doubt that the ability of Mr. Dailey is superior to that of his opponent nor that he would have given Indiana an administration of which’ every one could have felt proud, but the people have decided they prefer one who was named by the same crowd which now controls. Just why, we cannot explain, we can only record the fact and hope for the best. We are all citizens, all genuinely interested in the progress of our state and nation and as sucli will of course do all we can to help. This is a great country and will survive. Let's all grin and be as happy as we can. ************* * TWENTY YEARS AGO * * From the Dally Democrat Flla • * Twenty Yeara Ago Today * ************ * Nov. 7—Joseph Berling and D.

Herbert Jr... and Allan, and Mrs. Herbert Hoover Jr., and his brother, Theodore appeared in the front entrance ot the home where the students were were gathered. A great cheer went up. Hoover stood smiling, his family about him. He saw 1 hundreds of his well-wishers about the ’ place. He looked into the happy faces of others directly in front of him. Then was a daylight glare from the kleg I lights of photographers, scores of , friends leaned from the room of his home above his head. The President-elect and his family i entered the*house after this demonstration and appeared upon the roof. By that time, the college beys were organI ized. Their cheer leaders mounted chairs and led a ’Skyrocket” cheer for I I Hoover, and then Mrs. Hoover. As if M waiting for this signal skyrockets be--1 gan to flash high overhead, and the (| rattat boom of other fireworks. , Sousa’s band struck up two lively marches and then played the Star - Spangled Banner. From that, it turned to "Auld Lang Syne.” The band stopped and Ilcover stepped to (tie front e of the roof. "1 want to thank you for coming here to greet us” he said. "1 do approi, date It from the bottom of my heart.” It was his only public statement of o the victorious night. Today he will rj answer Gov. Alfred E. Smith’s telei- gram of congratulation. After his expression of thanks, the d college boys began to sing the Stan(l ford Hymn, softly. There was no ac--2 companimeut by the band. j. As Hoover listened, tears rolled down his face. Apparently over come by emor. tion, he turned and entered the house. g Knights of Columbus members, attend the installation of e officers and the big dinner to be served at the hall Monday ie night, Nov. 1.2.

It was a reasonable assumption that the Republican gains in the house might reach as high as 20 Democratic chairs. In this situation the lineup of the senate stood: Republicans 52, Democrats 36, doubtful Democrats 5, vacancies 2. The house lineup was: Republicans 239, Democrats 164, doubtful 29, (Republicans 7, Democrats 22.) Several In Doubt The close senatorial contests included thosp of W’alsh of Massacbtl- ‘ setts, Wheeler of Montana, Geery of ■ Rhode Island, Kendrick of Wyoming, ■ and Hay of Missouri. Hay and Gerry were lagging behind in the early i morning returns, while Walsh, Wheel- - er and Kendrick were clinging to narrowing margins. Fourteen Republicans and eight . Democratic incuml>ents pulled safely - through the cyclone of ballots stirred > up by the Hoover landslide, a disr turhance which blew first one candi- . date and then another along unex- . pected paths. ’ Copeland of New York was an ex-

ample. At 10 p. ni. yesterday he I ; seemed a beaten man because Gov. Alfred E. Smith, the greatest vote ' ] getter this state ever had, was burled I in an avalanche under which none ot his Democratic colleagues could be believed to have survived. But there was a change in the official count testate, unforseen trend against ! Smith toward Copeland in New York City and Copeland awoke this morning to find himself conceded the cenatorship. The Copeland case is not unique, ; the same ever changing battle was i being waged in most of the key states where Democratic senators were up for re-election. Those who pulled through the har-

rowing experience of the Hoover j slide included most of those from I strongly Democratic states —Trammell, Florida, Stephens, Mississippi i unopposed i Pittman, Nevada. McKellar. Tennessee, Connolly, Texas, King, Utah, Swanson. Virginia (unopposed) Ashurst and Copeland.
