Overwhelmingly Defeated.

fifty and 100. by two delegates. and
for an additional 100 members. one
additional delegate. Each state or
territorial federation of twenty-five
clubs or less shall be entitled to be
represented by five delegates. Each
state or territorial federation shall
be entitled to one additional dele
gate for every additional twenty
five clubs.
Then came consideration OF section 8,
Of article II. the second feature in the
color matter. This section belongs to
the present bylaws, ana when Miss
Jane Adams of Hull house, Chicago,
offered to amend it. Mrs Low, notwith-
standing the usual sixty days notice
had not been given, graeiously gave in
diligence to Miss Adams. eliciting an
appreciative acknowledgements from
Miss Adams and like tribute from the
audience.
No Chance For Colored Women.
Miss Adams. who believes in the ad-
mission Of colored clubs, wanted this
section amended SO two instead Of one
adverse votes Of the membership COM
mittee of five would be necessary to
keep out an unwelcone club. Miss Ad-
dams made worthy plea, but IL went
down before a large vote
The last question considered related
to the reduction of per capita tax from
10 to cents, which induced Mrs Lydia
Williams Of Minnesota to speak scOrn-
fully of the federation doing business"
on a nickel basis Mrs Low also made
pertinent remarks against reduction.
The decision to adopt the parlia-
mentary manual Of Mrs. Emma Fox,
the present recording secretary. as au-
thority for the federation, led Mrs.
Urquhart Lee to urge the acceptance
OF some manual written by a man. Con-
ISOLATION came to Mrs. Fox in the ulti-
mate support Of the convention.
Then came a friendly contest for the
entertainment of the next biennial.
Mrs. Williams, who spoke for Mime
apolis, said the Commercial club had
pledged the money and promised to do
all the work.
Mrs. Shields Of Missouri. backed with
invitations from men in high positions,
extended a similar courtesy from St.
Louis.
At the suggestion Of Mrs. Low a tel
egTam was ordered sent to Mrs. Potter
Palmer in her bereavement.
Utah is one of the nineteen federated
states which have not had an office in
the general federation, and they are be-
ginning to loudly protest against their
lack or representation. Utah will be
satisfied with a position on the board,
and for this place Mrs. W. A. Nelden
Of salt Lake City is prominently men
toned.
