.CULLMAN VOTES ON
 LOCAL OPTION TODAY
There Has Been But Little
 Interest in Campaign
EXPECT SLIGHT VOTE
Estes and Hooten Given BOnd-Re- publicans of County Meet and Adopt Primary Plan for County.
 Meeting Harmonious

Culman, May 19.--(Speclal.)-T cam paign of the local optionists for the re- turn of the regulated open saloon was closed last night at Hanceville. A lsrge number of prominent local optionists from Cullman went down accompanied by the Cullman band and a rally was held in that town. Several addresses were made by members of the party.
 It is strongly believed that the local option people have made strong gains within the past few days and that the sale of liquor will be legalized in some form or other tomorrow. The fight has been altogether with the vets. The drys have put forth very little effort in this campaign to prevent the legal return of liquor, and in case saloons are not re. turned to the county 1t will be simply because the people of their own accord repudate it. The drys have made no ef- forts worth while to prevent them from doing so.
 It is not expected that very heavy vote will be boiled tomorrow in the coun- try beats. The weather conditions are very promising of a fine day, and be- cause of the fact that the farmers have been delayed with their work 1t is predict ed that not many of them will quit their work and go to the polls. Beat l, Gull man, will in all probability vote it's strength, but outside of this the vote will be light That Cullman proper will go for open saloons is q foregone conclu- sion. The drys are hoping for very lit tie in this beat. What they have con sidered their stronghold all the time is the farmers, and should they not turn out and vote heavily, the dry vote in the country will be showed under by heavy vote which will be boiled in Cullman beat.
