 A good amount of native sor- cery, superstition and demonology are mixed in for good measure.

 ASSESSMENT
Equalization Board Re ceives Fine Statement
 from W. 5. Pullen

The City Council, as an EQuali- zation Board began sessions this afternoon and perhaps the most agreeable statement on the attitude of two large companies in Ju- neau, accepting the assessments levied. was the first c0mmuniea- ton to be taken up, that from the Alaska Electric Light and Power and Juneau Ferry and Navigation Companies, signed by W. s. Pull len. manager. The members of the Equalization Board believe this will be an incentive to other property owners to agree to the assessments.
 The letter from the two com panies, and signed by MT. Pullen, is as follows. addressed to the Board of Equalization:
 We have examined the assess ments levied for the current year against the property of the Alaska Electric Light and Power Com 
 pany and of Che Juneau Ferry and Navigation Company, anu we find that there is an increase of ap- proximately one-third in the val nations heretofore placed upon the property of these companies.
 While the present assessment represents more than the actual value of the property of the com panies, which is situated within the corporate limits of Juneau, we feel at the same time that the city must have more revenue on ae- count of the increased eXpendi- lures made necessary by the con- dition of the streets and sewers, and also by the erection and main tenance of the new school build ing.
 For that reason we are glad to accept the valuation placed upon our property by the Asses sor, and we expect to pay what ever tax is levied upon the as sessed valuation"

DEMOCRACY FIRM
IN SOUTH CAROLINA
Smith Gets State by 10-to-1
Margin in Heaviest
Vote Ever Cast.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
COLUMBIA, S. c., November T.
Amid the Hoover landslide that made
extensive inroads into the hitherto
solid South" the State of South Caro-
lima stood today with her traditional
Democratic majority virtually untouch-
ed. Incomplete returns gave Gov. Al
fred E. Smith lead of nearly 10 to l
over the combined votes CT his oppo-
nentS.
With G72 precincts out of 1,191 re-
porting, the vote was: Smith, 51,524,
and Hoover, 3,133, while the anti-Smlth
Democratic electoral licked, pledged to
support Hoover, got 2.504 and Thomas
46. Every county was represented in
the returns. and though several hum
dred precincts were unreported, it was
estimated that the bulk of the States
vote was in.
The vote was unprecedented for a
general election, both in volume and
early registering. With half of the pre-
cinctS reported, the total vote surpassed
that in 1924 and indicated that COM
plete returns would top the record vote
of $4,000 cast in 1920.
For the first time in generation In
terest in the outcome caused an actual
vote count to be made in the State,
previous presidential results being eSti-
mated until the formal canvass was
made some days later.
Seven Democratic Congressman, lat
Democratic nominees in the State Sem
ate and House and numerous county
and local officers were elected without

SMITHS LEAD SAFE
IN LOUISIANA VOTE
Hoover, However, Polls Greatest
Total Ever Given to a Re-
publican Candidate.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW ORLEANS, November Lou
isiana and Mississippi emerged today
firmly Democratic in the midst Of sew
eral wabbling sister States.
Their Democracy. however, received
the greatest shaking of their lives, as
Herbert Hoover piled up the largest vote
that any Republican candidate for
President had ever received In these
States.
Another record for presidential elec-
tions was made by the total vote polled.
In Louisiana, figures from about half OF
the precincts show several thousand
more votes than the 121,95l cast
throughout the entire State in the gen.
eraf election of 1924. The same situa-
ton prevailed to lesser degree in Mis-
sissippi, where slightly more than half
of the precincts polled within 10000 OF
the 112,456 recorded for the whole
State in the last presidential election.
/ But in each State the incomplete re-
turns from all sections showed Alfred
E. Smith so far out in front there was
no likelihood of his being overtaken.
On these returns he was leading in
Louisiana by around 10000 and in Mis-
sissippi by about $4,000. In Louisiana
