hospital at 6 o'clock this morning oc
curred the death ot E. G. Gifford, long
a resident of Bismarck. For many years
lie has been employed as watchman of
the Northern Pacific bridge across the
Missouri River and has lived in the
watchman's residence there. A number
of days ago he was taken ill, and his
condition became such that he was taken
to the hospital for treatment. Death
resulted from pneumonia.
Mr. Gifford was well and favorably
known in Bismarck, where he lived
with his family for several years. Hi
wife died several years ago, and he
leaves one daughter here, Mrs. C. N.
Hendrix of Steele. He leaves also a
son and daughter in Petoskey, Mich,
frqm which state he came to this city.
Mr. Gifford was 71 years of age at
the time of his death and was a native
df New York state. He was a veteran
of the civil war and a member of the
local post, G. A. R. It is probable that

FAIRNESS IN POLITICS.
Congressman, Carter Glass of Virginia
holds to the belifef that party politics can
be played with fairness, even in the
house of representatives. He was dis
cussing the point-with Judge Sims of
Tennessee, who agreed with him partial
ly, but declared that he intended to vote
with the democrats at all times. "And
I'll tell you why,'' he added. "It's
be­
cause bf my observations. I remember
that 4 few years ago there came to this
hougfi a brilliant lawyer from Georgia.
He hjad large knowledge of parliament
ary practice and such exalted convictions
"of fair play in politics that he was move'l
one day to vote against his party. That
man from-- .Georgia.", concluded... JUulgc
Sims in a confidential whisper, "isn't
here now."-. ...

Dunkirk, N. Y.. Nov. 28.—To The Fo
rum: The assertion is contihually-1 ic

chisement. ,t... ...•:
Another striking o^jectVlesson Row
ing the -unjust discnmiifatinn b6^x\ ccn
wages paid men and wonien for the same
work hag come to our notice through the
appointment of a woman of large experi
ence as librarian in the public library in
Minneapolis. It seems that the woman
in question had been assistant librarian
for a dozen or more years anS so ef
ficient was she in the discharge of her
duties that she was generally recogni/e
as the working head, and was so recog
nized by the librarian himself, who de
pended largely, upon her sagacity and re
sources in administering his office.
But when the librarian resigned and
the assistant, who had been for years the
working head, was appointed to fill the
vacancy, her salary was not only cut
down to $1,000 a year less than the man
had received, but the office of assistant
librarian was abolished and the duties
of both offices thrust upon her at $j»ooo
a year less than the man received fpr the
one office.
Nor is this discrimination against
women anything unusual. The same
holds good in many positions occupied
by women and especially in that of
teaching.
While the Minneapolis librarian was
deprived ot her legitimate compensation
ostensibly because she was a woman, as
a matter, of fact it was because she be
longs. to a disfranchised class. This is
proven by the fact that in states where
women vote they receive equal pay witi
men in public offices for equal work.
If the men who are crying out against
women taking their work from them
would help the women to secure the bal
lot and through the ballot secure equal
pay in all public position, it might re
sult in more men being employed, that is,
if they did as good or better work
than the women which is not given as a
reson for their receiving more woges.
Give women equal wages and the rest
will adjust itself according to the fit
ness of tht individual for the position.

A GREAT RECORD
i 'l:
Insurance Comp'y
Of North Dakota.
40 per cent in return cUvidends

saving tj? our members of 60 per
cent of the stock company's

ness written and $68,785.67 total
premium is truly- a great record
for one year.
BUSINESS MEf*
and citizens of North Dakota—can
you afford to write your insurance in
an Eastern Stock Company when
you have a company at home with a
record such as this?
The total net resources for this com
pany for the ensuing year will be
$82,452.80 on their renewal business.
With an increase of 25 per cent, our
total assets would be $103,178.50. If
this company had sustained an aver
ape,loss in the year of vhe gfieajt
FARGO FIRE-A
which is the heaviest this state has
ever sustained, our loss would have
been $28,378.00, as tiie lqsscs that
year were $1,219,80.3.00, whidi forty
•three companies paitt: thus we could
have received an average loss in the
most disastrous year this state has
ever kmwn 4be abovevcottdi-'
tion paid it in full and still returned
