OREGON PRIMARIES
GOVERNOR SMITH LEADING
(UNITED PRESS ASSOCIATION—BY ELECTED
TELEGRAPH —COPYRIGHT.) (AUSTRALIAN PRESS ASSOCIATION.) NEW YORK, May 19
A message from Portland says that Governor AL Smith had* a substantial lead over his opponents in the first- returns from the Oregon primary election. It is predicted that he will gam the support of , ten Democratic delegates* at the National Convention.
Governor Smith had a- two to one majority over Mr. Walsh, the size, of the latter’s vote being a. surprise, owing to his previous announcement of his withdrawal. Mr Reed was third, and the Rev. Alonzo Workman, of Missouri, fourth with a- scattered vote*. Mr. Hoover was unopposed for the 13 delegates on the Republican side.
