ieging that it showed bitterness on the
part Of the administration.
The administration forces are USING
to advantage the successful aCnlnlsIla-
ton of Mrs. Mclean, and also the
theory that New York should not tui-
nish two presidents general in success
sion. II is time for the West, some OF
the delegates say, to have a hand IN
the administration
The conservatives come right PACK "
this with the statement that Mrs. Scott
administration candidate. is the sister
of Mrs. Adlai +. Stevenson, VINO IVES
once president general and that Mrs
SCOTS election will establish prece
dent &c having two presiding Officers
from the same family. They further
argue that Illinois and Indiana nave
furnished the presidents general Tor
twelve out of the eighteen years the SO
ciety has been in existence.
The discrepancy in ages between tho
two candidates, Mrs. Scott being con-
siderably the older of the two, IS be
ing pointed out to every waverlns
voter.

statement that the attitude of Mrs.
Donald Mclean and her adherents to-
ward their candidates has thrown in

scores of votes to Mrs. Story. In fact,
she said that the administration itself
through this attitude. was considered
the best ally that Mrs. Story and the
conservatives had.
