CALDWELL SAYS No
DISSENTING OPINION IN AN IN
TERESTIEG CASE.

He Refuses to Concur in the Opinion OF
Judges sanborn and Thayer as to the
Responsibility OF Employers for the
Safety of Employees Expresses Pro-
nounced Opinion in the Ernploye'sFavor
and Speaks Freely and Severely of what
He Calls the Error of the Majority as
Being Based on an lima ginative Case.
ST. Louis, March 2S.-Judge Cald-
well today filed q dissenting opinion III
the case Of Mary Finlayson against the
Utica Mining and Milling company,
which VIII attract attention in mining
circles as well as for the boldness of the
opinion expressed as for the severity
with which he deals with the majority
opinion OF Judges SanbOrn and Thay-
er. The point involved Is the respon-
sibiIity Of employers for the safety of
employees. The plaintiffs husband had
been killed by a falling rock that the
foreman Of the defendant company
told him was not dangerous.
Judge Caldwell says: THE doctrine
that a mining company can send its
employees into the bowels Of the earth
to conduct its mining operations with
out making any provision for the prop
er supervision and inspection Of the
mine for the security and protection OF
the miners and the mine, is unsup-
ported by authority, is opposed TO
sound public policy and is cruel and in
human.
The error Of a majority OF the court
in likeuing the customary work IN
mine TO the sudden calling out Of men
10 work after night on the brink Of
rapidly rising river, whose bank is
caving in, 10 save property from de-
strUction by the food, is too obvious
70 require discussion. Upon the law
applicable TO this case. the majority
opinion is IL direct and palpable con-
ffict with the opinion of this court"
Judge Caldwell then discussed the
reasoning Of the opinion and says that
IL is ''as false in logic q : il IS unSound in
law The opinion, he says, is in "a
cogent statement Of d purely magma
tive case"

TO PRESERVE BIG GAME.
Western Reserve. for the Breedin. Of
Buffalo. Elk, Etc.

Most wild animals are much more To-
cal in their habits than we imagine:
that is, they become attached to some
especial small range OF country, %
which they co1ine themselves at GER
tain seasons Of the year. We see, says
3 writer in Harper's Weekly, the same
thing in our domestic stock on the
range. y bunch Of horses VIII live for
months in some little set of ravines,
feeding over the same ground day in
and day ont, until some change in the
weather causes them 70 move toanother
locality. The same is true of range
cattle, though they wander more than
horses. Though all species Of cur
western wild game wholly change their
range in spring and autumn, yet. after
they have settled down en- their sum
mer or winter ranges, the area that
they cover in their daily wanderings is
not extensive. At certain hours of the
day they go 10 water; at particular
time they will be found lying down.

the same neigh borhood. The hunter

In the National park there are be
lieved to be now about two thousand
buffaloes, fifteen thousand - twenty
thousand elk, five hundred antelope,
deer, mountain-sheep, and bears. But
there Is no reason why there should not
be many other such breeding-centers,
where big game should bc preserved

A COMMON-SENSE APPEAL.
