WAS IN GUTHRIE.
]. W. Orr Spent Two Days OBJ
serving Constitutional
Convention

J. w. Orr returned last night from
Guthrie, where has been for two days.
Mr.. Orr appeared before the commit
tee on banking Of the constitutional
convention as representative of the
Association Of State Bankers, of which
he is secretary. The association is ask
ing for strict supervision Of all state
banks and trust companies by the
state, in order that the depositors
may be protected by rules as asstringent
as those governing national banks.
The convention will probably grant
the associations request.
Mr.. Orr thinks that Haskell will
force his county division slate thru
the convention. There is a great deal
Of opposilion Of course, but there
would be to any plan. Mr. Orr has
rather high opinion Of Haskel's abili-
ty, and says le Is the one man in the
convention who, right Or wrong, Is
capable Of doing things.
Mr. Orr does not think the jamming
thru Of county division plan, how
ever unpopular, will hurt the Demo
cratic party as much as a longer delay
fighting over the spoils, without ac-
complishing any Of tile objects for
which the delegates we're elected.

CAUCUS AGREES
Haskell Seems to Be Boss Of
the Situation at Guth-
rie.

tion in committee of whole this morn

making this concession the organiza-
tion expects TO save most ol the slate

eeates am opportunity to get together
Humphreys of Nowata, charges Rog-
ers Haskell Nelson and Tuner,
members Of the county boundaries
committee, with breaking caucus
agreement of third district, 1t looks
like the whole slate will go thru.
When the convention adjourned last
night there had been no progress in
the county boundaries business. The
report had been made j special order
in the committee of the whole at 2
O'Clock, but when that time came
Haskell was afraid to venture a test
of strength, and the report was there
fore not put up.
Instead Delegate Haskell, who con-
trolls tbe county boundaries commit
tee, made himself as agreeable as pos
sible to delegate with whom formerly
he had little intercourse. The county
boundaries committee was in need Of
help in winning its tight, and Haskell
was using diplomacy to get it.
To strengthen themselves the Has
kell-Murray combination succeeded
In getting the Democrats to meet last
night to discuss the situation and the
dangers that threaten the Democratic
party. Many delegates refused to at
tend Until assured that no effort
would be made to bind them in eau
Gus concerning the county boundaries.
They said they would be willing to
take part IN conference burt not in a
caucus.
The Haskell contingent said that by
today there would be changes that
would insure the adoption of the re-
port Of the county boundaries COM
mittee by the convention, while the
opposition insisted that it mas enough
votes to defeat the effort The
constitutional prohibition lobby
and delegates are in favor of constitu-
tional prohibition are trading with
the Haskell Murray county line COM
bination in a way that insures dis
appointment to one side or the other.
Delegate Roberts of Greer county,
chairman of the liquor traffic COM
mittee, is interested in the division
of Greer county fully as much as he is
ia getting state wide prohibition, Of
which he is an advocate. Roberts, in
conversation, has justified the trading
Of votes by saying that it is not i'm
proper to flight fire with fire."
