Prior to 1941, his title was North Dakota Railroad Commissioner. He had served in that position since 1928. BiographyBen Larkin was born in Wisconsin in 1873. He came to North Dakota in 1891, and worked on farms while he attended school. He graduated from the Commercial Department at Fargo College, and then managed a lumber yard for eight years. He farmed in Eddy County for 20 years, and served in the North Dakota House of Representatives from 1919 to 1926, and served as the Speaker of the House in 1925.[1] He was appointed as the Chief Elevator Accountant for the North Dakota Railroad Commission in 1925, and served in that capacity until 1928.
