to GUTHRIE GOD OR NO..
Constitutional Conven-
ton Drifts Into
Theology

Guthrie, Dec. 11-Twenty delegates
engaged in a hot debate today, which
was still unfinished when the session
adjourned, as to whether the consti-
tuition should recognize God or con-
tain the broader terms, supreme
Ruler of the Uniyese," The COM
mittee report favored the latter and
religious liberation.
Haskell and Murray fought for the
incorporation of the name, God, Has
kelI saying, fShall we declare that
Oklahoma is ready to take her stand
between Christianity and barbarism?
If so, duck this proposition and squlnt
at God"
The afternoon session. was discon-
tinued in order to give the various
committees an opportunity to meet.
The county division advocates,
whose plans are in accord with the
slate of the map makers, have form
ed very compact organization, with
the avowed intention of going after
the political scalps Of the men who
are opposing their plans at this time.
They have especially singled out for
slaughter, T. P. Gore, of Lawton can
didate for United States senator. who
is actively opposing the division Of
/ Comanche county, and promise to
knife him good and hard at the COM
ing primaries.
Gore lined up against him all the
elements of the Democracy who were
opposing the Haskell murray machine,
when he assisted that combination to
organize the constitutional conven-
tion. Now he is gaining the opposi-
tion Of its friends because he refuses
to agree to its county division plans.
Between the two elements, it looks as
tho Cores political aspirations might
as well be laid away in moUhballs at
once.
