The woman who does things seems
to belong so essentially to the pres
ent day that it. is something of a sur
prise to find tina. four hundred and
more years ago, women were quietly
going about engaged in work for the
public good, quiet. in the same spirit
that they are doing it today. AS q
rule, we are apt to think of the wo-
men of ages past as entirely occupied
in household affairs, at any rate as
not having the opportunity to go out
side their home-life or to act inde-
pendently Of father or husband in
the conduct of affairs. But every
now and then something crops up to
show that this is not So. that in the
centuries that are gone there were
many women who did valiant work
for some cause dear to their hearts,
as do the progressive women of to-
day.
In the hundred or more stained

such women Is being brought to

though the influence of their work
has gone on growing and growing

parture. In his earlier years in South
Dakota, Mr.. Smell was president of a
bank and that experience. as also his
training later in the Office of auditor
will stand him in good stead in his
new appointment.
"Mr. Smell has some excellent rec

Gov. Walter E. Clark of Alaska,
formerly a newspaper correspondent
of Washington is in Washington. 1t
is his first visit here in year. Gov.
Clark talked freely of Alaska and
conditions in the territory.
while l am an optimist, and we
believe that ultimately Alaska has a
big future, cannot conscientiously
give glowing reports Of development
in the territory at this time," said
Gov. Clark. alaska is rich, and will
be developed, but development is
greatly retarded by the difficulty of
getting fuel, and believe it to be
true that no country can develop I'M
less it has fuel at hand or easily &C
cessible. And this, in Alaska, of
course, brings up the subject of the
coal lands.
1.-THE people of the territory are
not SO much concerned about how
the coal lands shall be opened, SO
that fuel can be had, as they are
about getting at the coal. They need
fuel for development, and do not
hesitate to say that do not believe
Alaska will make any great material
advancement until this matter of the
coal lands Is settled.
Take, for instance, the building of
the railroad from Seward, about sew

fact that North Dakota is compare

The aim of the North Central AS

schools is, first, to bring about bet
ter acquaintance, keener sympathy
and a heartier cooperation between
the colleges and secondary schools Of
this territory; secondly, to consider
common educational problems and ID
devise best ways and means Of solv-
ing them; and thirdly. to promote the
physical, intellectual and moral wei!
being of students by urging proper
sanitary conditions Of school bull
ings, adequate library and laboratory
facilities and higher standards of
scholarship and Of remuneration of
teachers. The association is a VOL
untary organization consisting of rep

II difficult now to gain a hea-ing,
what must 1t have been In those days
when a woman stepped out from her
heaven-ordained domain to make her
voice heard in the worlds affairs.
One OF the women thus being hon
ored is Lady Margaret Beaufort. And
she Is not being honored by reason
of her title or position. but because
of the work she did. For she took
a hand in fdrthering the cause Of ed
ucation. and this, too, Is something
Of surprise, for the effort to spread
education we look upon as something
of modern movement.
Lady Margaret was Countess of
Richmond and Derby, daughter and
heiress Of John Beaufort, the grand
son Of John of Gaunt. A life Of lux
ury was hers had she wanted It, and
since back in the fifteenth century,
there We're no colleges for women, no
suffrage platforms to entice, no eco
nomic independence to be asserted,
1t might be thought she would have
lived the pleasure-seeking life of the
court circles into which she was
born. without giving thought to the
more serious matters OF life.
But she didn't. She made over to
her son such rights as were hers to
the crown and then, gave her life to
works of charity and piety, doing
i. - IVY ner the cause of educa-
ton. In 1902, she founded two per-
petual lectures at two. universities
These still exist under the name Of
Margaret Professorships.. She gave
to Cambridge perpetual endowment
for a public preacher. She also
founded in Worsetshire, a perpetual
loot tcr the teaching of grammar
But her greatest work was the
founding of the Colleges Of Christ
and of St. John at Cambridge in 1906
and 150S..
Rather big work for a woman
to do for the cause Of education,
four hundred years ago, wasn't it.?
In the work that was done for edu-
cation in the early times, we do not
often associate women. We always
think of men as laboring to increase
its sphere. But women then as now
were working for it, and it is COM
mendable deed that their efforts are
being thus recognized and honored
in this public way in the Cathedral
at Liverpool. For this window is not
to Lady Margaret Beaufort alone,
but to all patronesses of learning. 1t
is in memory of all who have help
ed, and 1t will be an inspiration to
others to lend hand.

largely because it costs to operate
the line approximately $3.50 for each
trip, more than the road receives for
freight and passenger service, where
as, II coal were to be had at rea-
sonable price. the cost of operation
would probably not exceed $25.
II believe, of course. in safeguard
ing public interests, but I do not
subscribe to the contention that large
corporations should be prohibited
from assisting in the development Of
Alaska. I do not take the view that
Alaska is exclusively poor mans
country. It should be the country Of
all the people, rich and poor. What
would the great state of Pennsylvania
have amounted to had It not been
for the capital invested by rich men
and corporations. No country can be
developed without capital"

CLUB
HAD PAPERS ON !.
RECIPROCITY
Lively Discussion of It's Eff
fects Upon the People of
North Dakota.

The reciprocity meeting OF the Fort
nightly club at the public library on
Monday evening, attracted large
number OF members and guests. The
speakers Of the evening were Dr.
Boyle and DR.. Jacohstein OF the uni
versity. The speakers dealt especial
ly with the effects OF the proposed
agreement upon the people OF North
Dakota. A lively discussion was
carried On by Mayor Murphy, Franl:
Feetham, S. Torgsrson and others.
DR.. Boyle spoke on the effects OF
reciprocity upon the people OF this
state as producers. He introduced
large number of charts showing the
wheat production of tho world. The
total production is about 1856, 900, 600
bushels, of which the United States
produces 70G,00C,O0O bushels. The
speaker showed that while our popu-
lation had only doubled since 1874
the production of wheat has trebled
From this fact the speaker conclud-
ed that we would continue as an ex-
porting country.
The influence of Liverpool was TAX
en- up and it was shown how the esti-
mates of the worlds supply and de-
mand were made there and sent
throughout the world The fact that
the condition of weather in Argentina
influences the price of grain in Chi
cago. shows that the price is set by
world conditions with which the tar
if cannot interfere. The speaker IA
vored the drawback because he be-
lieved it would benefit the millers and
enable them to pay better prices.
DR.. Jacobstein Speaks
DR.. Jaoobstein took up the effects
of the agreement upon the farmers as
consumers. He showed that the tar
III mad been taken off on poultry, po-
tatoes and other vegetables, fish and
cattle. In all of these products,
Canada is large exporter and free
trade in those would decrease the cost
Of living. The tariff on lumber has
been considerably reduced. Wire has
been placed on the free list and the
duty on some kinds of machinery has
been lowered. The duty has been re-
moved from fax and the speaker be-
lieved that it would enable us to Sc
cure cheaper seed. He regretted
that further reductions had not been
made. especially on lumber.
A very lively discussion followed.
There was considerable disagreement
concerning the effect Of free wheat on
the farmer. Mr.. Torgerson said that
the price of wheat in Winnipeg was
higher than in Grand Forks and con-
sequently could not lower our prices.
Mr.. Feetham replied that at phesent
we secure premium on our hard
wheat which would be lost If the Ca
madam hard wheat were admitted
free. DR.. Boyle and Mayor Murphy
maintained that the difference in the
price of wheat in Winnipeg and Du-
luth was due to the abolition Of the
grain exchange at Winnipeg and the
consequent inability of the millers to
hedge their purchases. Mayor MUIR
ply did not believe in the reduction
of the tariff on cattle or farm imple-
ments but did believe that free trade
in fax might injure the farmer He,
however, favored reciprocity as an
entering wedge for general tariff re-
auctions,

horne of several hundred refugees

ed to be in grave danger with fierce
fires burning only six miles from the
town. Preparations are being hur-
ricdly made To fght the flames.
According to reports the only really
dangerous fires remaining today are
in presduc Isle and Cheboygan coun-
ties. at the extreme upper end of the
peninsula.
Several hundred homeless gathered
at Au Sable and Oscado today and
aearched the ruins for any trace OF
the bodies of relatives or friends who
are still missing. The refugees are
d,terminded to rebuild the already sew
cral carloads of lumber have been
ordered to start the work. The Mich

of the ruins.
None of the refugees are suffering
from lack Of food or protection. From
all over the state. money, food and
clothing has poured into the deva-
stated district. and \aii the homeless
are well supplied with the first neces-
stiles of life.
