elect a successor to the lamented
founder of the organization, Miss
Frances Willard, whose denth last
spring 80 sadly bereaved the union.
Undoubtedly, the acting president, Mrs
Lillian NJ n. Stevens, Maine, will be
elevated to the vacancy and thereby
hangs little story which Illustrates
one OF the characteristics of the de-
ported leader. A long time since, and
years prior to her death, Miss Willard
felt the necessity Of an assistant, who
should be qualified to take care of the
work in her absence. and capable of
continuing 1t in case of her death.
With this idea in view, she asked the
union to allow her. as the president,
the privilege of naming the first vice
president, who should act as her chief
assistant. To this the national con-
vention held at Cleveland o., in 1894
agreed, and even went a step further
by poviding that in oil cases, the pes
ident should have the privilege of ap-
pointing the first vice president. Mrs.
Stevens was named for the place by
Miss Willard. and has naturally taken
the mantle laid down by the late lead
er, until now there is hardly any OPP
position to her retention in the post,
unless the Temple fight becomes fac
tor in the election Of officers.

standing could be secured. There was no
ooubt. however. but that Mr.. Field would
make good MS pledge, In cash.
The last national convention voted TO con-
Unue the work Of raising funds for the
Temple by large majority. II has often
been said. In explanation Of the matter, that
the greater majority OF leases Of property in
the business part OF Chicago are for 90 years
OF less, We however secured lease for twice
- years from Mr.. Field, on low valuation Of

say that The property IS worth over 81 ZOO. coo

benefit At the end of ten years We would
have 70 pay $4,000 q year rental. as the
rent Is per cent OF the value Of the poporety
ANOTHER STATEMENT DOUBTED.
Another complaint which Is made In their
statement must surely have been written
without due consideration. They say Bear
in mind the fact that even though the mil

ground. II we hold a title. we do, Of

donated to them or purchased by them before
that time. can renew their lease Tor another
couple OF centuries with the privilege granted
OF having the ground reveiued. So We cannot
see why We would not have entire ownership
OF Willard hail as long esthe building STANDS
OPINION CHANGES RAPIDLY.
They also say. "IntervieFs with business
and professional men and women have clearly
revealed the fact that there is no lack Of In
terest throughout the nation IN a proposed
memorial 70 Miss Willard, and no lack OF ap-
probation OF her matchless character ane
marvellous work. but that the Temple does not
appeal 70 the public as fitting memorial
In reply 10 this we say that public opinion
must be very fckle indeed, as an entire cppo-
site expression OF Il Is contained IN the letter
sent out By those same general officers seven
