Contest in Oklahon,a a,

Oklahoma City, Okla. April 11.-Poli-
ticians and delegates from all over
Oklahoma are here to attend the Demo-
cratic state convention today. The
principal business before the conven-
ton will be the selection of delegates
at large to the national convention at
St. Louis. The probabilities are that
the convention will name eight dele
gates at large. with half vote each.
The delegates will be instructed to vote
for President Wilson's denomination,
All signs point to a harmonious con-
vention. The only discordant note like
ly to be heard Is that resulting from

Hartford, Conn, April 1.-THE Con-
necticut Republican convention as
sembled in this city today for organ
iZation. 1t will complete its work to-
morrow by the selection of four dele :.
yates at large to the national con-
vention at Chicago. The delegates will
be uninstructed as to the choice of the
Republican candidate for president.
Three Of the four delegates at-large
probably will be former Governor
Frapll B. Weeks, State Chairman j.
Henry Roraback and Charles Hopkins
Clark. the Hartford editor. Several
names are mentioned in connection
with the fourth place on the delega-
ton. Neither of the two United States
senators from Connecticut will be on
the delegation. Connecticut, unlike
other states, seldom sends it's senators
to a national convention Elk President
William II. Taft could be a delegate if
he wished, but he definitely has de-
clined to be considered.

PARTY FACTIONS TO
HAVE TEST AT POLLS

Chicago, April 11.--Illinois politicians
are on the qui vive because Of the
statewide primaries today at which
delegates to the national conventions
are to be chosen by both parties. AL
though there is no contest in either
the Republican or Democratic parties
for the presidential Endorsement, the
primaries will be far from perfume
tory affair. The fact that the voters
will at the same time express their
choice for ward and state committee
man in Chicago and for precinct and
state committeeman down state, will
make the primaries the most important
political event of the year in Illinois
outside of the presidential election.
The choice of committeeman will bring
to a showdown the bitter fights for
party control between the Deneen.
Thompson, and Brundage factions on
the Republican side and the Sullivan
and anti-Sullivan contingents in the
Democratic party. Today the leaders
of all factions are giving instructions
to their lieutenants and making other
preparations to muster their full
strength at the polling booths tomor-
row

the city attorney holding at a meeting
of the council today that an addition

tition, sworn to by legal voter, stat
ing that the signers were qualified cleo
tors of the city and further stating the
number of names on the petition. The
first objection made, that the charges
were general and did not state speci-
fically any special acts, was held by
the attorney not a legal objection to
the petition which would stand In
court.
As the law provides that the petit

they will be taken out by the persons

field strewn with the dead. The final
climax is the meeting Of Grant and
Lee at Appomattox when great his
toric event is re-enacted.
The Reconstruction Period.
What followed in the wake of that
terrible war is portrayed In the lat
ter half of the film. The reconstruct
ton period when the south attempted
and finally succeeded. after years Of
struggle in gaining domination over the
negro, makes as strong a picture as
the first half of the program. It is a
story rich in historical events and
teeming with struggle between white
and black. The organization of the
Ku Klux Khan, the symbol of which
was the cross of fire, and its head,
Colonel Ben Cameron, is a chapter
long to be remembered. The action in
this half of the film is little short of
wonderful 1t is the kind that brings
an audience to it's feet with shouts Of
enthusiasm.
The film is not without its sad and
happy sides. The death of the Cam
eron and Stoneman boys on the bat
tletield is furrowed in memory. The
saving of the home of the Cameron
family first from the negroes and later
in the cabin of union veterans are
stirring but happy incidents.
| Sherman march to the sea is one OF
| the strongest incidents of history cast
on the canvas during the entire pro-
gram. The terrible destructivenes OF
war probably could not be more fit
/ tin Civ DOrtray we'd, MANY of the pictures
were taken at night and are strikingly
vivid. The Birth of a Nation" is a
| play never to be forgotten.

WELL KNOWN Chinese
RESIDENT OF BOISE is
CALLED BY DEATH

ID. w Chin Sue. the we'll known
Chinese proprietor of the Canton cafe.
died this morning at 4 local hospital
after q lingering illness. The end
came very peacefully with his family
around him. His death will come as Il
great shock to many of his friends who
did not even know of his illness. d.
w Chin Sue was born in California in
1868. lie went to China with relatives
when only three, returning to California
when Is years old and staying four
years. After a visit of few months

settled in Seattle where he became a
prosperous merchant of that city. In
Seattle he attended Presbyterian
mission school obtaining a good lSnowl-
edge of English, and was baptized at
this same mission in the Christian
faith.
On Sept 20, 1910. he married Miss
Lena All Fong of Boise. daughter of
the pioneer Chinese physician, DIR. G.
X. All Fong. The newly married eou-
pie went to Seattle where they lived
for n year. returning then to Boise.
Mr.. Chin Sue was a man who ex-
erted / strongly beneficial influence
over his fellow conntrYmen and the
Canton cafe where he and his wife
spent the greater part of their time
was often the scene of many pleasant
gatherings of American church work
ers and Christianized Chinese.
No definite funeral arrangements
have been made but it is probable the
burial will be on Saturday. There will
be the Christian service first, the place
| to be announced later, and after thai
the body will be taken in charge by the
local Chinese lodges of which he is 9
member.
The 19-year- old son Can adopted SON

/ he passed away. Besides his younl
widow. he also leaves another adopted
son, the pretty little Chinese boy s.
| familiar to those living near the dow
| town district. The Rev. r. b. Wright
of the Congregational church, who bap
tized Mrs. Chin Sue in the Christian
faith and who performed the marriag
service, will also officiate at the las
sad rites.
