Burnett has carried every county by greatly increased majorities, except Winston, which went republican, Colonel Burnett's total majority being 3067. He defeated Kennemore, his opponent in his home town, Guntersville, by 19 votes. His majorities in the different counties are as follows: Marshall 23 Franklin 197, Cullman 550, DeKalb 617, Cherokee 705. Etowah S67, St. Clair 150. Winston county gave a republican majority of 200. Re turns from all but two precincts in Eto wah county show that the democrats have elected their complete county ticket by overwhelming majorities, ranging from 800 to S75. This was about the only coun- ty in the state in which the republicans had a complete ticket in the field, and they were thoroughly organized and made an aggressive light. They feel their de- feat keenly, and it will be several years before they get up courage to fight an- other battle.
 Etowah county gives F. D. Hummer, democratic candidate for senator from the Sixth district 300 majority. and authentic reports received from St. Clair county to- night state that his majority there will be 125. Great satisfaction is felt here over his election.
