THE RESULT
IN MAURY.
Big Majority for Benton
McMillin
AND ALL THE OTHER NOMINEES.
McMillin's Majority Nearly l,9OO-The
Republicans We're Sleeping so Sound
That Very Few of Them Got Awake.

Old Maury did herself proud last
Tuesday, and comes to the front with
handsome ma Orities for Benton Nc
Millin and the other Democratic
nominees. Here. as over the entire
State, a great amount of Indifference
among the voters existed, and a light
vote was polled. While some apa-
thy existed in the Democratic ranks,
1t seemed that the Republicans had
thrown up the sponge altogether and
didn't care continental how the
election went. But few white Re-
publicans voted, and still fewer ne
groes. In the Ninth district less than
twenty negroes went to the polls, and
in many districts in the county Sam
bO's ebony face could not be seen at
all.
For the handsome majorities roll
ed up for Democracy, the County
Executive Committee and other par.
~ leaders, who have been working
with an untiring energy for the past
several weeks, a great portion of the
thanks are due.
McMillin's plurality over Fowler
is l,S93-the largest plurality given
Governor in this county in years. In
1894 Turney received 73l more votes
than Evans. and in 1896 Taylor re.
ceived 1928 more votes than Tilman.
The vote of Col. Cox, Democratic
nominee for Congress, fell below that
of McMlllin several hundred, and
the vote of Cunningham, indepen.
dent candidate for Congress, exceeds
that of Fowler by 200.
From the meagre returns received
from the other counties in this Con
gressiOnal district, it is impossible to
give a correct estimate of Col. Cox's
plurality in the entire district. How
ever, he is elected by a good, safe
majority.
AS there was no opposition to the
Democratic legislative ticket. the
following were elected: L p. Pad.
gett, Senator; John w. f. Fry
Floater; w. II. Porter and H. l.. Oil
yer, Representatives.
The tOtalvute cast was 3, 398-abOut
1000 below that cast in the August
election.
The day was an ideal one, and nc
stay-at- home could excuse himself
on account of the weather.
Peace and quiet characterized the
election throughout, and here in Co
lumbia IA stranger, ignorant that il
was election day, could hardly have
told that an election was going on
This, to a great extent, was due tC
the good workings of the new cleo
ton law. The voters simply went tC
the polls, marked their blanket
sheet ballots, and then went back tC
their work.
Below will be found a table giving
the official and unofficial returns o
Maury county:

Judge Grosscup held that there was no
