A DOG FALL
 IN OKLAHOMA Clark and Wilson Factions Break Even in Scramble
 For Delegates.
STICK TO THE LAST
Governor Harmon Left Out-"AIfalf, Bill' Figures Prominently in
 the Final Agreement.

Oklahoma City, Ok, Feb. 23.-Tn accordance with the provisions of a resolution adopted earlier in the day the Democratic State convention ad Journed late this evening after hay- ing named a list of delegates evenly divided between the Clark and Will son factions. Robert Galbreath was named national committeeman by a unanimous vote. The Clark forces named seven delegates at large to cast five votes, the Wilson faction ten delegates at large to cast five votes and each named ten delegates for the five congressional districts.
 Inasmuch as the sentiment in Okla homa is that Wilson will be the De- nocratic nominee, the evenly split delegation is considered a decisive Wilson victory here, as it is pre- sumed that every Clark delegate will vote his vote to Wilson as soon as Clarkg name is eliminated from the race.
 Governor Harmon has no repre- sentation under the present agree ment, each faction Of the delegation being instructed to vote for their man as long as his name is before the convention.
 But an evenly split delegation was more than the Wilson forces hoped for in Oklahoma. The state, accord ing to popular opinion, has a good deal to be thankful for to Speaker Clark. Whatever the Wilson faction receives in Oklahoma is largely due to the efforts of Senator Gore, and the generalship on the floor of the convention by William H. Murray, known the state over as Alfalfa Bill"

Hughes, on trial charged with first degree murder in the First Criminal Court, concluded the clos ing argument for the defense late this afternoon, when adjournment was taken until tomorrow, when At torney General Estes will close for the state.
 With all the force of eloquence at his command, Governor Patterson made final effort to save Hughes from the scaffold or a felon's cell His argument was an impassioned effort to persuade of the truth O. Hughes plea of self defense.
 In opening his speech. Patterson told the jury that he came to ths rescue of the defendant not as a suppliant for mercy, but to invoke the law. He declared that the de- fendant felt himself perfectly inno- cent and asked no mercy.

SEVEN MINISTER'S ARE ILL IN
PORTLAND.

Portland, May 22,--Affected by a
siege Of tonsiliis that the sudden
change in the weather in the past few
days has brought on, seven Episcopa-
Ian clergymen, including Bishop
Scadding, have been suffering from
the malady and three of them yet are
in the Good Samaritan Hospital.
Tonsilitis first made its appearance
among the clergymen Friday night,
Just as they were finishing the work
Of the twenty-fourth annual conven-
ton Of the Episcopal diocese of Ore
gon. At first 1t was thought they
were suffering from some poisoning
as result of the food they had eaten.
Those in the hospital are Rev. H.
w, Marsden, of ST. Mary's Episcopal
church, Albany; Rev Roy Reming-
ton, Of All Saints church, Portland,
and Rev. R. e. Browning, of Marsh
lleld Ihe other afflicted ministers
are, in addition to Bishop scadding:
Rev, A. NJ. Breck, Of st. Matthew'S
church, Portland; Rev. w. B. Hamil-
ton, of Grants Pass, and Rev. F. NJ.
Baum, Of Corvallis.
Physicians report a large number
of cases of tonsilitis within the last
few days. While in no way danger
Gus, the afflictlon is painful. The
sudden change from warm to cold
and rainy weather, 1t is said, has
caused the epidemic
All Of the suffering clergymen are
improving, and Bishop scadding was
able to be at the opening of the
United Glorious Of the Episcopal
church last night.
