That Based on Supposed Freedom of

fuse to Work it the Conditions of
Toll Place Him In Danger.
The workiugman does not seem to
appreciate his true grievances arising
from the present state of the law, else
modify the rule of assumed risk" by
legislative enactment
The rule OF assumed risk is this: An
employee who is injured in conse-
Gucnce of the dangerous conditions i'm
posed on him by the nature of his en-
ploymenr arising through defective
construction of machinery or other ap-
planes out OF repair has no recourse
against his employer if he had knowl-
edge OF these dangerous conditions
His knowledge OF the conditions may
be presumed by circumstances as may
also his realization OF their danger
through his possession of more or less
intelligence. which likewise NAV be
presumed from the facts in the case as
presented b. the evidence 1t makes
no difference that it was the duty OF
the employer to know of or remedy the
defect
This barbarous doctrine arises from
the supposed freedom Of choice of the
employee, who can refuse TO work I'M

BANNER YEAR IN GEM STATE
Major Reed Says 19O8-9 VIII be
Greatest in History of Id
aho for Development

The POcatello Tribune says:
Major Fred r. Reed of Milner-by-
the-dam, is in town today, and
as usual is boosting the Gem
state. Major Reed says to look
for very heavy travel westward
this year. All the passenger
agents of the big roads predict
the same thing. Southern Ida
no is proving especially attract
i've to the homeseeker. The
Twin Falls North Side Irrigation
company has given Southern
Idaho and the Irrigation pro-
jects more real advertising than
all the other projects combined. |
After the big land sale at Jerome
October 1st, at which two mil
lion and forty thousand dollars
worth of land and water rights
were sold in four days, there
was in the company's office after
the sale, $500 unanswered let
tiers that the company's office
force had not time to answer.
Since the big sale land has been
selling at the rate Of one thous-
and acres per week. There still
remains unsold on the North
side about forty thousand acres.
Major Reed said that with the
coming OF spring he looks for a
heavy immigration to Idaho
and anticipates the greatest real
estate movement that Idaho has
ever known. The people have
had a severe lesson in the rise
and fall of stock, bonds and in
dustrials and are beginning to
realize that the irrigated lands,
water-powers, timber lands and
undeveloped resources OF Idaho
are good goods and are turning
their faces and dollars to the
northwest. Idaho is in the lime
4 light and while, SO to speak, we
are still in the swadling clothes
+. of infancy as to the development
r of the many diversified resources
of which Idaho is the possessor,
Major Reed said that in spite OF
the present tight money market,
) he wished to go on record as say
!. ing that 1908 and 1909 would
: be the banner years for Idaho.
