BROOKLYN is AT PEACE
New Suffrage Leader in Place
of Mrs. Elder.

The most cheerful bit OF news these
many troubled days is that Brooklyn is at
peace. Poor Brooklyn! whose very name
was symbol for implacable warfare. war
fare whose most deadly feature was that
no one could make head nor tail Of 1t ell!
Some old suffragette row"-that was
the best most ordinary mortals could do
with the imbrogllo OF elections, trials,
'forgeries" and tears which distracted
suffrage ranks for nearly the whole Of
last year.
And now it's all over. Forgotten? Well,
not exactly. but left on shore while the
ship sails out with a new captain and
a new crew. Yes. Mrs. Robert II. Elder
who went to court to get her office OF
borough chairman, has lost interest in II
now due TO the destinations of the Bull
Moose hunt. and Mrs. Edward Dreier Is
booked as the new captain.
Mrs. Dreier is a new worker on the
suffrage seas. having a little family to
whom she has devoted all her time until
now She knows nothing about the late
unpleasantness and says she doesn't wish
to know.
Il never heard the true story" she told
the reporter last night, when asked ABOUT
her candidacy for the office OF borough
chairman, land ! doubt II / ever shall.
We have new work to do, and we hope
that the troubles are over. l shall not
refer 10 them"
The nomination Of Mrs. Dreier, which
took place last night in the various cleo
ton districts, was desired by practically
all OF the Brooklyn suffragists, who are
tired of wrangling. One other change was
made in the party officials last night
That was the nomination OF Miss Mary
