HELD AT OKLAHOMA CITY LAST MON-
DAY AND PLATFORM ADOPTED
A Large And Enthusiastic Gathering Of The Party Work-
ers From All Parts Of The State—Confidence In The
Election of John Fieids For Governer Was Mani-
fested By Every Delegate Present.
Oklahoma City—The republican state conven-
tion held in this city Monday was the largest at-
tended political meeting held in the state since
statehood. Every county in the state was re-
presented, many of them by large delegations
Promptly at 2 o'clock State Chairman Alexan-
der rapped for order and the meeting got under
way.
Miss Alice Robertson, congresswoman of Musk-
ogee was elected chairman of the convention, and
weilded the gavel in a graceful manner that was
entirely satisfactory to every delegate. In ac- i
cepi;ng the gavel Miss Alice said: "I accept j
with i.'iorent gratitude the honor which you have
conferred on me, not as an individual, but as rec-
ognition of a new element in American trovern-
ment."
John Spaulding, an ex-service man of Enid, was
ejected as secretary.
The convention was addressed by Senator Har-
reld, James A. Harris, and John Fields, who de-
livered the keynote speech.
Among the delegates to the convention were
many old line democrats wh > declare they are un-
able to vote for the Shawnee platform and its
candidate, and many txpressed themselves as (inn
in their belief that they are votiVg fur the best
interests of the democratic party in Oklahoma
when they vote for John Fields in November.
One democratic dela^-ite said: "I am for John
Fields for governor because 1 am honest m my be-
lief that in voting for him I am voting to pr« serve
democratic party in oklahoma. A3 I see it,
Ihe endorsement the Shawnee platform and the
eleef-on of its candidate will mean the death of
democracy in this state for at least four years, and
perhaps forever, wihile if we elect the republican
ticket we are at least voting ag'ainst socialistic
principles and candidates. Between republican-
ism and socialism, I am strong for republicanism.
John Fieflds is clean cut, a man of ability and will
live up to every plank in his platform. I am for
John Fields."
This sentiment was expressed by every demo-
crat present, and they were the most enthusiastic
delegates present.
The convention was harmonious and every dele-
gate was enthusiastic for John Fields and the en-
tire state ticket and pledged themselves to return
home and work for the defeat of Townleyism and
the non-partisan league in Oklahoma.
The Boy Scout Band of 25 pieces, from Stroud,
was a strong feature of the convention, and the
fife and drum corps of Oklahoma City aided in
the entertainment of the delegates at John Fields
headquarters and at the coliseum. A mixed
chorus of 50 entertained with some sacred selec-
tions during the meeting.
REPUBLICANS POLL EIC
MAJORITY
Republicans in Oklah«viv\ have nev-
er taken an active interest in any
primary campaign, not even in the
recent one, vhen politics were heat-
ed to the I oiling point. Not sine?
statehood was given ns hive republi-
cans been enthusiastic about the pri-
mary and only a few have ever none
to the polls.
On the other hand, since statehood
republicans have gene to the polls in
the general election in increasing nu-
mbers and l ave reduced ihe majority
of 45,000 in the first e'ection to a lit-
tle oxer 4,000 in 1914, the ana remoter
going a little higher when Robertson
was elected four years a^o.
On account of the light vote polled
in the primaries republicans have
been told by their depiociatlc friends
and (many have came to relieve that
the party his no chance of election
in the state, using the primary figur-
es as an argument, and this has caus
ed piany republicans to rtrnnin away
run the- j o!!s.
In the recent primary, however, the
republican candidates polled 30,000
jmor* votes than were ever cast in a
previous primary, and twice that cast
for the presidential electors in 1920.
An encouraging indication since ther-
was no contest for the head of the
ticket. Pittsburg Herald.
