est membership or any commercial
club In North Dakota
II am well pleased with the success
of the campaign that closed today az
noon," said Chairman HI. p. Beckwith
OF the campaign committee. "The men
have worked hard, and although they
have not yet covered all OF their fields.
the results have been most satisfactory
In every case and we are now on the
way to a bigger and better Fargo"
Although the membership campaign
OF the Fargo Commercial club formally
closed today at noon, several OF the
committees are still working over the
field, and all continue to work, Only
seven committees Of the seventeen dis
tricts have completely covered their
fields to the best of thir ability.
This leaves ten districts yet to COM
plete their work. One district did not
start out on It's work until this after
noon and has big future ahead OF
1t. Memberships viii continue TO be
brought IN and received for two more
days in an active manner. even though
the campaign has been formally
closed.
The success OF the movement for
bigger and better commercial club IA
Fargo is the greatest indication that
Fargo is on the road to greater city.
The interests Of the city are In a large
measure handled through the COM
mercial club, and the growth OF this
institution means that the city OF Far
60 win grow and become a greater and
better Fargo. The booster spirit q
evident. and the fact that the mem.
berships will come in for several more
days is sufficient to warrant the faith
OF the citizens In the club and Fargo,
in spite Of the fact that the big mem
bership campaign has been formally
closed.

Glencoe, Mimi, Oct. 24.--When Pres
ident Taft returns to Washington next
month not the least Of his labors will
be the filling OF the judicial vacan-
cies on the supreme bench and in the
courts in New York, Montana and
Chicago. which have arisen since the
adjournment or congress in August.
In addition to these judicial ap-
pointments, the president will name
a member of the international bound
airy commission to succeed the late
Senator Carter and a United States
marshal for the northern district Of
New York.
While the slate which Taft must
write next winter win not be so Inn
portant nor so lengthy as that of last
year there are enough vacancies to
make It certain that the president
will devote much Of his attention to
such appointments.
There is practically no chance now
that successor of the late Justice
Harlan will be selected by the presi-
dent until he reaches Washington.
1t was said today, when the presidents
train stopped here. that Taft has
given no consideration at all as to the
successor TO Justice Harlan. He has
received many suggestions from slI
over the country as to how he could
fill the vacant place on the supreme
bench and many names including those
Of Attorney General Wickersham, So
licitor General Lehman and several
others prominent in public life have
been mentioned.
1t was said here today by mem
bers OF the party, however, that the
president has determined not to take
up the supreme court vacancy until
after congress meets.

FINAL SCORE.


Philadelphia. Oct. 24.-The weather
for the fourth game between the Phil
adelphia athletics and New York
giants in the series for the worlds
championship is clear and cold. A
stiff wind is p1owrng from the north
west. The field is still heavy from
recent rains.
Before s o'clock there were several
hundred in line at Shibe park waiting
for the bleacher gates to open. After
8 o'clock there were 1000 congregated
about the entrance.
All the reserved seats were sold
before the first game was played a
week ago yesterday and another crowd
that will tax the capacity of the big
grounds was on hand when play be-
gan. Both teams were in fit condi-
ton for the game. The weeks rest
had turned up the men who were on
the verge of staleness and enabled the
pitchers to get back their strength
for the strenuous work In the box.
The crowds that filed the grand
stand and bleacher seats and overflow
ed into the field were slower in ar
irving today than they were when
the first game was played here a week
ago. The cool weather kept many
Of the spectators away until the last
minute.
There was little animation shown
BY the arriving throngs until the play
ers Of the two teams arrived. The ath-
letics struggled in by ones and twos
and the giants came in a body at /
o'clock. Both teams were cheered as
they took their turn at practice.
