contesting delegation from Woodward
county headed by Ed. S. Virgins. who
thereby won out his fight for territorial

territorial committeeman for Woods
county was challenged by Delegate Gels
Ter, and the question was temporarily
laid over until the full delegation should
be present.

Flynn. and at the end the chairman an

Flynn for delegate in congress, which
evoked another wild demonstration.
