Crosby Review: Those who have
looked upon the face of Gunder Olson,
known in this section as the honest
old, man from Walsh county, will not
hesitate to give him their support for
state treasurer. He is a North Dakota
pioneer and one Of natures noblemen.
Should he be elected he will not make
use of the state funds to his own ad-
vantage for he has no bank to absorb
them. He is first-elass farmer and
a good business man, standing high
with his native countrymen and is with
all patriotic American citizen.

LEGAL DECISIONS

Liability Of Father For Reckless
Driving Of His Automobile by His
Daughter-Whie the daughter OF one
possessed of an automobile was driy-
ing it without her fathers knowledge,
She ran into plaintiff, injured him and
furnished an incentive for the action
in Doran v. Thomson, n, Atlantic Re-
porter, 29G. The plaintiff contended
that the daughter was the servant or
the agent of the father and that he
was liable for her torts, AT the time
OF the accident she was using the ma
chine for the recreation of herself
and her own friends. The Court Of
Errors and Appeals Of New Jersey
held that, even had the relation Of
master and servant existed generally
Between the father and daughter, yet
il does not appear in this case that
|she was acting AS such servant with.
in the scope Of her employment, so as
to render him liable for her torts. I'm
doubtedly liability might have been
visited upon the father had the ma
chine been menace to the safety
of others. but his liability in that case
would arise by reason OF his negli-
gence in intrusting dangerous ma.
chine to the hands Of an inexperi-
enced or incompetent person.

REEL FOOT LAKE.

An interesting contribution TO
the Reelfoot lake controversy is made
by Charles N. Gibbs, a former seere-
tary Of state of Tennessee. in an ar
ticle in the Chattanooga Times. Mr.
Gibbs, after an exhaustive study OF
the question. covering several
months. is of opinion that the lake
belongs to the state, and that il
needs only so to be declared by the
Tennessee legislature ito forever
make its waters free to the people "
A perusal of Mr. Gibbs article
shows that he has delved deeply in
to the history of the lake as reveal
ed by court records and statutory en-
actr1ents. He reviews all the various
grants that have been made since
the original grants from the state of
North Carolina in 1883, many years
prior to the formation of the lake.
He has looked up all the Tennessee
laws bearing on the subject and the
laws of North Carolina as well inso-
Ldt DIS hlGN tGlGttC w AAiN WI lt1IAt
grants. Tennessee was coded to the
United States in 1889 and accepted
by act OF cngress. which provided
that "the Laws In force and use in
the state Of North Carolina at the
time of passing this act shall be and
continue in full force within the ter
ritory hereby eeded until the safe
shall be repealed or otherwise alter
ed by the legislative authority Of the
said territory 1t is pointed out by
Mr.. Gibbs that a number of the Oil
Nortir Carolina laws affecting the
cession and survey Of the lands "on
the waters of Reelfoot river were
never repealed and by th cession
act they are live laws of tie state OF
Tennessee today"
Reelfoot lake was not in existence
until 1871. The entries subsequent
" made call for more than twice as
much lana as lies under the lake. Out
of the vast number Of conflicting
claims has grown the friction and
ill feeling which finally eliminated In
the night rider outrages. The state
legislature ordered the filing of suits
last year to est the validity OF
claims, and litigation is now in pro
gress. II is probable that the aggre-
gate of acreage represented in such
claims would represent more than the
entire area of lake and Obion coun
ties. with the Mississippi river and a
section of Western Kentucky thrown
in for good measure.
The states effort to secure posses
sion Of the lake will be strongly re-
sisted in the courts, but state owner
ship is the logical outcome Of the
controversy. Mr.. Gibbs is not 81
counsel in the case, but his pains
taking investigation should be of I'M
mense advantage to the attorneys
for the state. His work has been
purely labor of love, because OF his
interest in the case and the know
ledge he acquired of it DUNG his OF
fetal career. The publication of tn'
facts he has learned he regards as
public duty. In making SO thorough
an examination into the merits OF tn
controversy he has rendered vaiu
able service to the people of Tonnes
