FAYETTEVILLE, Tenn, Sept. IS.
Mrs. Selma M. Holman, president

ance Union of Tennessee, one of the
strongest characters in the state, and
for many years leader among the
civic reform forces, died at her home
here at 1925 O'Clock this morning as
the result of an operation. She un-
derwent the operation several days
ago and for a time was thought to be
improving. but few hours before her
death she had sinking spell and on
Friday all hope was abandoned.
No woman in all the state was bet
ter known or better beloved than Mrs.
Holman. For more than a dozen
years she had been president Of the
Woman's Christian Temperance
Union, being reelected every year
without the thought or suggestion OF
another candidate. She gave to the
administration of that exalted Office
the very highest and best that was in
her. She was thoroughly consecrat-
ed in mind and heart to the great
cause of temperance reform. To
achieve success for temperance she
subordinated everything. She used
her great Office so we'll that she COM
manded the respect and admiration
OF the opponents Of temperance.
Mrs. Holman was always and ever
ready to respond to the call of duty.
In the legislature of 1909 when the
state wide prohibition bills were penH
ing she spent much Of her time in
Nashville and worked tirelessly for
their passage. She was an ardent
supporter of the late Senator Car
mack in 1908 and in 1910 gave her
endorsement to Gov. Hooper. She la

ture of 1918 for the enactment Of law
