opportunity presented itself. he ap-

graph operator. The chief clerk I'M
der whom he worked urged him to
take up stenography, ~ there was .
great demand for male stenographers
in the service, and he mastered this
study and was promptly given a re-
munerative position for which his
knowledge Of telegraphy, shorthand
and the general routine work OF the
Office qualified him. After continuing
In that position for several years he
was appointed stenographer Of the le-
gal department Here he saw large
opportunities for advancement and de-
termined to work his way to the head
Of the clerical force If possible. Find
ing that the position of chief clerk OF
the department demanded the quail
fications of an attorney with practical
knowledge of the law, he entered the
evening class of the St. Paul College
of Law in 1901 and graduated from
that institution in 1904 and In due
course was advanced to the position
Of chief clerk. Mr.. Francis is held
in high esteem by the officials OF the
road.
In 1906 he ran as Republican candi-
date for the assembly and received
nearly 10000 votes, which was indeed
a splendid showing, considering the
scarcity Of Negro voters in st. Paul.
MI. Francis Is also the attorney for
the various Afro-American corpora
tions Of st. Paul. Besides the very
arduous tasks Of his Office, he is also
prominent in religious, political, social
and fraternal circles.
His rise from an Office boy to the
position Of chief clerk in the legal de-
partment Of the Northern Pacific Rail-
way company should be an inspiration
to any young man and shows that
strict attention to duty, being ready
when opportunity knocks at the door,
always bring to an individual that for
which he labors.
