The state campaign ended last night. It will go into history as one of the most remarkable in many respects ever con- ducted in Alabama, and it's result means much for the future of the common- wealth and every citizen in it.
 Although feeling has been at fever heat, the majesty of the law has prevailed, and we have been spared unseemly out break or rlotous clash.
 The management of the campaign, on the part of the democracy, has been characterized by perfect generalship. No blunders have marred the working of the we'll appointed machinery, and Hon. John B. Knox and his able and zealous coadjutors may look over the field this morning with the serenity which comes from assurance that work well and faithfully done will show in the news of the morrow
 Captain Johnston spoke last night at Double Springs Winston county. From the beginning of the campaign he has been on the stump almost without inter- mission, and has compelled the admira- ton of his uncompromising opponents by his pluck and vitality. He pitched his canvass upon a high plane, and de- seconded from the hustings with clear hands
 And the result? It is clearly fore shadowed in the news which is printed below. The gallant standard-bearer of democracy will sweep the state, and there is warrant for the assertion that when inducted into office he will be backed by a democratic legislature.
 The State Herald, desiring to post the people on the election tomorrow and give them as complete a forecast of the re- suit as possible addressed the follow ing letter to the chairmen of the county executive committee and its correspond- ents:

AUTAUGA.

Wadsworth, Aug. 1.-(Special.)- )-Au- tauga county, first. alphabetically, on the list, will give the full democratic ticket a handsome majority From three-fifths to two-thirds of the votes cast will be for straight democracy. The white people of this county are pretty well united, especially in the north end of the county If all the counties will do as well as Autauga the majority will be so large that it will be useless for MT. Goodwin to claim the office. He always cries fraud, but we don't have that here. We have an honest election and fair count. Yours trulY.~

 tive Committee

Conhmatory.

Clayton, Aug. 1.-(SpeciaL)-Tod brings to a close one of the hardest fought campaigns ever witnessed in the county of Barbour, and Monday night will be shown as the results of this cam paign the grandest victory democracy has ever gained in this county. Not only has it been vote winning campaign, put there is the satisfaction of knowing that Monday will witness the wlping out or populsm in this county. The Clayton Courier in today's issue, in speaking of the closing of the campaign, says: The Courier believes that not another county in the state can boast of chairman or an executive committee whose record will equal the one made by Judge Aston of Barbour county in his magnificent management of the campaign just draw ing to close. Tonight will bring to close one of the most remarkable cam palgns ever witnessed in Barbour county or in the state And it consists in the fact that the canvass has not only gained votes for the party, but has well nigh an- initiated and swept out of existence the populite party in this county, and the Courier predicts that after the soreness wears off of the defeated populite can didatss that populism in Barbour will be a thing of the past. And to Judge Aston as chairman of the county campaign com mittee is most of the praise due for this state of affairs. His thorough or ganization and conservative manner which has marked ms entire course throughout the campaign has done more for the party with less expense than any campaign ever conducted in this coun- ty."
 The Republican Headlight. newspa- per published in Eufaula, and whose ed- itor is a colored man, comes out this wsek with the state and county demo- cratic tickets hoisted at its masthead, followed by an editorial calling on all those who favor good government in Ala bama to support the tickets named, giv- ing good advice to the negroes as to why they should support the democratic nom- inees. This will have good effect and is the result of Captain Johnston's speech.
 The most encourag ging reports are com ing In from all sections of the county, and men who have been led away from the party by such schemes as Kolb, Goodwin & Go. could manufacture to lead honest men astray are daily desert- ing that conglomeration and are up in line for the battel for good government on Monday next. The negroes of this county are in the main mostly intelligent onss and are not easily led astray by such schemes as Goodwin contrived to catch their votes They fully realize his purpose and they will not follow after such leaders, and will. with the exception of few. cast their ballots for Johnston

Rockford, July 31.-(Special Corre- spondence.)-I have received reports from prominent democrats over the coun- ty lately, and from these reports, if the situation has been correctly summed up, Goodwyn's majority over Captain John ston in this county will not exceed 325 if we are given a fair election, as against 518 majority for Kolb in 1894, and it may be less than that.

tion of the crowd from the beginning. They gathered up close around the stand and drank in the eloquent words as they fell from his lips, and when time was called they cried to him to go on and were unwilling for him to stop.
 Kilpatrck's speech from beginning to end was the old Kolb cry of fraud, fraud and abuse of the democratic party, and was disgusting to the ear of white person.
