Modern Women
lX.-WOMEN IN BUSINESS.
By Frederic J. Haskin.

Into every known branch of com
mercial activity some Woman has now
ventured with more or less success
The increasing number ii women d.
recting large business interests is a
demonstration of the varied talents
possessed by the business women of
today. The woman who has kept
closely in touch with her husbands
interests frequently shows herself
lutte ready to manage them, once
the responsibility devolves upon her.
The only woman member of the Ma
tiOnal Association of manufacturers
of America is Mrs. Clark Fisher of
Trenton, who is o at the head of
a large iron works. Mrs. Fisher and
her husband were in a railroad acct
dent in 1908 in which he was killed
and she was partially paralyZed for
months. Instead of turning over the
business to a manager, she directed
it herself, eve before she was able
to leave her room, and for months
she went to the office upon clutches
and studied every detail of the bust
ness organization.
The banking business has attracted
man. women since the time when
pretty Ida Sexton first smiled upon
William Mckinley through the CASH
ier's window of her fathers bank. In
Kansas no less than $50 women are
holding positions in banks. This
number includes four bank presidents.
Is vice presidents, so cashiers and
$50 directors. Regarding their relia-
bility, an officer in the state banking
commission recently stated that no
woman, employed in any capacity in
a bank in Kansas. ever had been
charged with any kind of a breach
of trust. Miss Ina Shepherd of Birm-
ingham, Ala, is accredited with being
the first woman to AVE charge of a
clearing house. Miss Shepherd for
several years has been secretary of
the Birmingham Clearing House as
ISOLATION and each month the clear
ings from eight banks, amounting to
from $4,000, 900 to SIS, 600, 900, pass
through her hands. Another woman,
Miss Laura Riddle of Austin, Texas,
is engaged as a banking expert and is
one of the editors of the Texas Bank
Record.
Women are winning their way in
railroad circles, as has been demon
Strated by the appointment of Miss
Daisy Ogden as district passenger
agent of the Chicago, Burlington &,
Quincy railroad. Miss Ogden has
headquarters in Chicago and is said
to be the only woman in the world to
hold such a position in a railroad of
flee and has been advanced because
of her exceptional grasp Of The bust
ness details connected with the work,
Many other women occupy positions
of responsibility in railroad Offices
positions which could be filled only
= by persons having an understanding
of the entire system.
Nearly three quarters of a million
women are employed in the great
business enterprises of his countr,
: and for each of them the opportunit,
to advance is greater than befor,

Sir John said he wanted to make
a crusade against women's wells.
Nothing was more beautiful than the

awful spots, making women look as if
they had black ayes and made fearful
grimaces.

Big CLASS FOR EAGLES
Forty three FIedgIings Admitted to
Full Membership at Monster
Meeting Last Evening.

The largest class yer taken into
the Fargo aerie of Eagles on any one
night excepting. on the institution
night, was that which entered the
boarders of Eagledom last night when
forty-three fledgings became full
feathered birds. fully able to soar in
any atmosphere and under n cir
cumstances.
There was a large attendance at
the meeting, many coming in from
the country districts to see the work.
AS is the custom when SO large a
number are given the degrees there
were only a few who took the floor
work, but they furnished enough
amusement as they progressed in
their Instructions in "~ftghtage," many
of them encountering the high rocks
of the mountains, thunderstorms and
Whatnot.
The work was very we'll done under
the direction of the degree team and
all were satisfied. At the close there
was. a grand banquet given with Chef
Leggett in charge and it was a mast
erly effort. Following this was a
social session, during which all man
ner of stunts were pulled off much to
the e~difcation of the newly made
birds as we'll as the old timers. II
was a great night for the Eagles in
Fargo.

INTERESTING TALK
ABOUT RUSSIA
MRS. II, L. RoLLEY, FIRST DEAN
OF WOMEN OF FARGO COLLEGE.
TALKED AT SCHOOL WITH,
WHICH SHE WAS FORMERLY,
CONNECTED THIS MORNING.

The first dean of women of Fargo
college spoke to the students in chapel
this morning.
Mrs. Bolley, wife of Professor Boil
ley of the A. c. visited the hill school
this morning and gave the students
Of her former school an interesting
talk on Russian travel. /,
Mrs. Bolley enjoyed some unique
experiences in Russia, and in des-
cribing them added a personal tinge
to her discourse.
Spending three weeks in the private
life OF a country estate is an event
not experienced by many American
tourists. The speaker told how the
women did the work on the farms to
a great extent, while the men went
to the large cities for hack driving
and other work.
While Mr.. Bolley travelled through
the grain growing parts, his wife be-
came well acquainted with the peasant
life on the estate.
The eastern part of Russia very
much resembles western North Da-
kota," said the speaker, and one of
the frontier towns was somewhat
similar to such a Dakota town as
Dickinson.
Mrs. Bolley told the students of the
character, of Russia as influenced by
its geographical surroundings, of it's
different religious forms, of which the
Ikon played a most important part.
The speaker displayed a small model
OF one OF these sacred emblems, which
could be folded and carried in the
pocket for use in travel.
The two cities receiving the most
attention were Moscow with it's stern,
austere, and sacred nature; and st.
Petersburg, the city of court life and
military character, with it's beautiful
buildings, gay life, winding drives, and
artistic parks.

OFFICIAL ELECTION
FIGURES

We have official figures of
the results of tho last election.
The total popular vote for
Wilson was 6.303,06S; for
Roosevelt 4,l68,564; for Taft
3,439, ,529; for Debs 1913, lis; for
Chain 2O3,3l9; for the social
list labor candidate 29.O6l.
The total vote cast was To-
O4l,655-only 1886 more
votes than we're cast in 1908.
Wilson was not a majority
ca ndidate, though his plurali
ty over Colonel Roosevelt was
|2,l34,499. He received l,S74,
725 fewer votes than we're
cast for Taft 10 1908, and l04.
9l9 fewer votes than were cast
for Bryan that year,
The most astonishing result
Of the last election was the
enormous vote cast for Colonel
Roosevelt, giving him second
place by a plurality over Taft
of 729,OS5a remarkable
showing for third party can
didate making a short cam
paign in the face of a popular
belief that the election OF the
democratic candidate was in
|evitable, as it was.

Iby changes that may take
