Montgomery, October 16-lSpecial)- )-The shift of official position at the state cap Ital today may. and very likely will, cause changes In the political intentions of some of the men who have decided to ask for office at the hands of the democratic party next year. It is thought that IT the appointment of Judge J. M Car michael to the auditorship presages his offering for the next full term he will be a candidate too formidable to tackle with any hope of defeating short of long and hard fight. It is everywhere regard ed as a fairly safe bet that he can win If he goes out after the prize, though, of course, he will have no certainty with men like Brooks Smith and the others mentioned for the position.
 The most interesting situation, however, is the prospective influence in the race for secretary of state. It had been re- garded for some time as fact that Gen. William w. Brandon was in the race for auditor before the appointment of Judge Carmichael to the vacancy caused by the naming of Col. D. l.. Sowell to a judge ship in his home county of Walker, but it Is not certain that he will not now get back to his first intention and go in for secretary of state. This will make the contest for that office by all means the most exciting save the governorship. The lineup for the place will be, as it appears now, Brandon, Capt. A. c. Sex ton at present chief clerk to the secre- tary of state, and Frank Julian of Tus- eumbia clerk of the legislature at It's last session, with Col. Henry R. Shorter, deputy insurance commissioner, as pos sibility.
 Administration Help.
 This kind of a showing would bring out some of the most far-reaching of in fuences and make the fight one to take up the attention of the whole state It is fairly well established that in ability there can be none better equipped than Sexton for the duties. as he has been chief clerk so long he knows every de- tail and if there Is any weight in the rule of promotion among politicians he would seem to be a good one for fore casting as a victor. It is also said that Sexton would have the help of the ad- ministration, though there is not in evil dence any too good reason to be fully sat isfied of this, as the Governor at any rate is known to be very fond of General Brandon and to desire to show him whatever favors he can. If Shorter, the brother-n-law of the Governor should enter there will be further complications.
