TAJLADEGA

Tailadega, November 9.-(Special.)- .)-No workers, helpers, markers or groups of men were at the polls in Talladega on election day. Tt was almost as quiet as Sunday. ONeal carried the county, but little more than half the normal demo- cratic vote of the county was cast for him. Seed received about 15O more votes than O'Neal. The county ticket led the state ticket There are but three pre- cincts yet to hear from, and these are small beats that will probably add about 60 to TO to the majority of O'Neal. Un- official returns from the 15 beats give O'Neal 1923, Thompson 276, Seed 1125, Scott 25. For Congress, Blackmon, the demo- cratic nominee, has 997. Atkins, republi- can, 23S.
 All the above figures may be slightly changed but the three remaining beats will merely add to the majority of O'Neal. perhaps as many as 50 votes. The entire vote of the county is near 1500. The form of the ticket prevented some from scratching, as they were unable to work the puzzle out and were ashamed to ask aid for fear of giving themselves away. The speech of Colonel Mallory on Sat urday before the election appealed to all democrats to keep their pledges and had a great effect on the voters of this coun- tv. The surprise of the election was the large O'Neal vote that came up from sylacauga It had been boasted that Syl- acauga would go for Thompson and against Blackmon. The result is greatly attributed to the splendid management of Col. James B. Sanford, an ardent sup porter of ONeal, who resides in Sylacau- ga The county nominees were all elect ed by large majorities. exceeding the vote on the state ticket

Florence. November 9.-(Specisl.)-The election in Florence passed off very quiet ly and even at night there was nothing to distinguish 1t from an ordinary week day except the crowd in Governor-elect O'Neal's office, where a private wire had been run and his friends gathered to hear the returns read. Returns from the coun- try boxes are very meager, the boxes be- ing sealed in many cases without count ing the tickets. But enough has been re- ceived to show that the republicans made a very poor fight.

Total figures on the result of Tues days election in Alabama will not be secured until after the official count is made Except in those counties where the republicans were making a fight on congressional or county tickets, no at tempt was made to tabulate the vote, there being no interest whatever
 However, Burnett's majority for Con- gress in the Seventh district will be with in 100 votes of the 1000 mark. Returns show that he carried Cullman by % votes. Etowah by 5O7, DeKalb by 5e, Cherokee by 125. Franklin by 100, Mar shall by 551, and lost Winston by S5o votes Winston is the only county which went solidly republican. This, however, was expected.
 In Jefferson county Thompson's vote was about 1000. The total will run around so06 or 5000. The official vote will be counted tomorrow at noon.
 The people of Alabama are now re- joieing that for a short time political discussion is buried, and they may settle quietly into the customary channels of business. However, during the next two months, legislators and people with a pull for some pet scheme will be busy drawing bills, and the politicians will continue their scuffle for the appointments which must follow the change in admin istration.
