Hon. G. w. Fulton and his brother won
two cases recently for the defense, one
,,fter the other. The Prosecuting At

yirtion, and stated that it would never
ho nossible for the State to win case OF
tbc kind when the lawyers so mixed the
iurv ND with the jurisdiction question
thnt they we're unable to agree on any
thing. Mr.. Fulton produced certificates
hold by both defendants, and argued
that the laws of Congress giving Oregon
jurisdiction in civil and criminal cases

hio only applied to the service of pro
cooeee and to crimes committed on {
Hooting boat or other craft and not tt
ANYTHING fixed into the bed of the rive
~n the Washington side. He claimed il
oddition that, if Clatsop county jury
pronounced jurisdiction over Washing
ton fshtraps, the State OF Washington

nowerlcss to instruct the juries on th

no nearer settlement than ever. TN
