ASKS !. SUPREME
COURT TO PASS ON
ANCIENT DOCTRINE
Fargo Moorhead Street Railway
Company Appeals to High
81. est Tribunal

Whether the ancient fellOW-servant
doctrine can be made to apply in this
day OF intensified industry to person
al injury sustained through the negli.
gence of fellow employee is a ques-
ton which the United States SUI
preme court will be asked to answer
in the case of James Peterson YER
sus the FargO-MoOrhead Street Rail-
way Co., appealed today by the de-
PENDANT company from ruling OF
the North Dakota supreme court, re-
versing a decision of Judge Pollock
in the Cass county district court In
favor of the defendant, and demand
ing the action for retrial. s.,
Peterson was a conductor on the
Fargo4Moorhead street railway, and
he was injured, lis alleged, through
the ,carelessness OF the motOrman on
his car. The fellow servant doctrine
as defense has been eliminated by
North Dakota statute in the case Of
common carrier. Judge Pollock rul-
ed this statute to be class legislation
and unconstitutional when he direct
ed verdict in district court in ia
vor Of the street railway company.
In reversing Judge Pollock, the SUI
preme court held the street railway
company common carrier under the
terms of the statute and upheld the
copstitutionality Of the act.
The Fargo o0rhead line also
chances to be an interstate carrier,
which enables it to obtain direct ac7
ton son It's appeal from thessU United
States supreme court.

CAME BOARD SC0RNS
MORTON COUNTY AND
BUYS IN BOTT|NEAU
Rather than Be Bilked by "Com.
mission Men," It Pays More
for Smaller Tract

Rather than be bilked by Morton
county commission men, who, &C.
cording to recent EXPOSE" are a
very bad bunch, the North Dakota
game and fish board at meeting
here voted to locate the proposed
game farm in Bottineau county, and
to pay larger sum for smaller
tract as a site for the farm, about
three miles outside of IBottineau.
Mrs. Sarah Kaulbfeisch is the own
err of the 7O-acre tract which the
board voted to buy at $50 the acre.
Mrs. Kaulbfeisch is the wife of John
Kaulbfesch, an employe of the Imper-
ial Lumber Co. at Bottineau.
Can Propagate Trout
Judge John H. Kirk of Bottineau,
a member of the board who favored
switching the location of the farm
from Morton to Bottineau county, ex-
planned today that the BOttineau
tract is fed by springs and has a
good all year roun stream running
through it. Brook trout, Judge Kirk
states, can be propagated there, and
this would not have been true of the
Morton county tract. Land surround
ing the game farm site has been
leased for a game refuge. A hatch
cry will be installed, and an exper-
fenced game farmer will be placed
in charge. 49,. -
The board also considered improv-
ments to the hatchery at Lake Upsi-
lon, near st. John. 1t approved the
recent purchase of a Ford by John l..
Gloom, fish commissioner, to be used
instead of a team in transporting fish
fry from the hatchery to the station
: may Be Lucky Later
Morton county, or some spot In
central county, may later have the
good fortune to get a game farm.
For the present, all of the hatcheries,
game farms and other impedimuntia
of the commission will be located in
the northern part of the state, near
the Canadian line, where majority
of the members of the commission
reside, making it more convenient for
ali the board members. ~.
Those in attendance at the meet
ing here included Commissioner John
I. Bloom Of Devils Lake, DR.. Charles
MacLachlan off, New Rockford,
George M. Hogue. Of Steele, secre.
tary, and Judge Kirk. -. 49,. .6..
