The FINAL
FORECAST

Guthrie o. T., Nov. 5-The final
forecast as to the outcome Of the con-
stitutional delegate election in the
new state was given out today from
Republican headquarters in this city
by Jake Harmon, chairman Of the
territory Republican committee. His
statement follows:
II am entirely satisfied with pres
ent conditions and with the outlook
at the close Of the campaign. Ny
former estimate that the Republicans
will elect seventy Of the 112 delegates
to the constitutional convention, is
very conservative aud I believe that
we will beat that figure by two or three.
1 have received very encouraging re-
ports from chairman Victor, of the
Indian Territory committee.
Colonel VIM. BusDy Of McAlester,
has guaranteed the committee that
twenty Republican delegates will be
elected from Indian Territory and
Tams Bixby, commissioner tot the Five
Civilized Tfioes, has also predicted
twenty delegates from that side Of
the state. Chairman Harmon says
that he has every reason to believe
that these estimates are correct and
his estimate Of total results will be
borne out by the returns.

Vinita about one hour late this morn

last and furious, especially in precinct
Nine, namely the First and

be the intention to challenge every
farmer who came to the polls.
