Dubuque, April 1o-After one of the
most bitterly contested battles in the
history of local clubdom. In which the
question of religion was made the
paramount issue. Mrs. B. j. O'Neil.
veteran clubwoman of Dubuque. was
made the president OF the Dubuque
Woman's club over Mrs. Eunice Cilbos
Allyn. pioneer club worker. author and
artist. For the past two weeks two fac
tons of the representative club have
made a canvass of the town, using ev-
al votes for one of the two candidates.
Never before in the history of the local
club has such a question been brought
TO bear as that of religion as the organ
ization is purely a literary and
philanthropic affair. But with the close
of the recent contest split was made
strenuosity of endeaVor that has not
been equalled heretofore in the history
of the Dubuque Woman's club, the
members divided into two factions and
battle royal was waged for SUI
premacy.
The meeting of Thursday afternoon
was largely attended and up to the fin
al moment of the casting of the ballots
the decision of the club minority was
a question. When the result of the
vote was announced the women proved
most enthusiastic and it was some
time before the meeting was restored
to its usual order.
The Dubuque Woman's club is one of
the largest clubs in Iowa, is a feder-
ated organization. being influential In
the state club life and having in its
membership many of the representative
women of Dubuque.
