w and SOCIETY.
D. A. R. Presidency
Offered Mrs. Roosevelt


 The following extract from Washing ton letter will be of interest to the Alabama Daughters of the American Revolution:
 The national board of the Daughters of the American Revolution has forwarded to Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt the preliminary papers for her admission into the society. Accompanying these papers is a formal pe- tltion to the wife of the Vice President elect asking her if she~would accept the honor of president general. of the associa- ton, provided the office were offered to her at the next continental congress.
 This action of the national board has brought forth a storm of criticism from local members of the D. A. R. There Is not the slightest objection to Mrs. Roose- welt. On the contrary, there is the friend Fest feeling toward her and a desire that she will accept the office. But the ladies who criticise the board hold that the office Is one decided by ballot, and that in ad- vance of the meeting of the continental congress the board has exceeded It's author ity in offering the position even tentatively to anyone.
 Mrs. Daniel Manning's term will expire
  for reelection. The society now numbers nearly 5000 members and Is split up into at least six formidable factions. Those who propose Mrs. Roosevelt for the president general contend that this action is in the interests of harmony, since, being stran- ger, there is no personal feeling against her.
 Mrs. Donald Mclean of New York, who was Mrs Manning's rival, is unalterably opposed to offering the leadership to lady simply because she occupies a lofty social station. Mrs. Mclean will be candidate for the presidency herself.
 Mrs. William Lindsay, wife of the Ken lucky Senator, who has been an earnest worker for many years, would not decline being honored with the supreme office.
 Mrs. Fairbanks, wife of the Indiana Sen ator, is another who is said to have the bee buzzing, and there are at least two other equally strong candidates.
