Majority of 55,OOO-POps Garry
Only Six Counties.

BIRMINGHAM, ALA, Aug. 1.-Joseph
F. Johnson, Democrat, was reelected gov
ernor of Alabama to-day. Unofficial re-
turns from sixty counties indicate Demo-
cratic majority for the state ticket of
55,C00. The chairman of the Democratic

Indications are that the Populists car
ried not exceeding six counties for their

twelve counties for local offices. the con-
tests being over probate judges. Probate

judges. The contest to-day was between
the Popuists and Democrats. The Demo-
Gratis won all but twelve.
The Populist managers concede the cleo
ton of the Democratic state ticket but
claim they will elect not less than twenty
two probate judges.
The lower house of the legislature will
consist OF ninety Democrats out of ii total
OF loo. The Populists elected but two
