TOO MANY APPEALS.

1t becomes serious question to deter
mine when the right of appeal is ex-
hausted. Apparently there are people
who hold that one decision by Supreme
Court is only preliminary to another. The
death of Justice of the Supreme Court of
the United States is supposed to open the
way to the reversal of a decision which
had been reached by the deceased JUS
tees vote. The United States Supreme
Court has decided that the Chinese regis
tration act is constitutional. Judges of
lower courts have acted upon that decis-
ion. But when a Chinaman is arrested
under the provision of the act his liberia
ton is sought by a habeas corpus peti-
ton addressed to the Supreme Court A
rather curious state of affairs has been
developed by the friends of the Chinese.
First. the act was held imperative until
the Supreme Court had passed upon it.
This is at least irregular. Other acts are
enforced on the assumption that Congress
and the President combined know some
thing about the constitution. The court
having affirmed the constitutionaIity of
the act, it is now held imperative until
the court reaffirms its own decision.

Well done the Navahoe! In the Brenton
Reef race, which is over a course of 120
miles. and involves run across the Eng
fish Channel to CherbOurg, with all its
chances of heavy weather and a lumpy
sea. she has actually come in two seconds
only behind the Britannia, the crack yacht
OF the season, owned by the Prince of
Wales. The Britannia has beaten nearly
all opponents in all races this wear. The
Navaboe has often got the worst of 1t, but
on this occasion, in the open channel, she
has somehow managed to hold up in a
rafting race and to come in almost a
winner. OFF Cherbourg the NavahOe was
thirty seconds ahead. II is now the end
OF the season and there can be little more
opportunity for the Navahoe. Mr. Phelps
has been unfortunate. but he has done so

Such wild talk as tile following from a

something to do with his conversion, if be

The fate OF protection Is settled now. 1t has

fraud and system of robbery, and as direct

For False Arrest.

Charles E. Wenkel has filed suit in the
Superior Court against Henry G. Gerdes to
compel return of a power of attorney.
1t appears that Wenkel in July last
caused the arrest of his partner, John A.
McGeoch, on charge of petty larceny,
after which another suit was brought eaus-
ing the arrest of Wenkel for perjury in
swearing out the warrant.
ii Is claimed that while WenkeI was in
prison McGeoch came to him with an at
torney and threatened to prosecute the
charge of perjury to its utmost limit un-
less he would convey his interest to Gerdes
and give power of attorney to Z. p
Morey to execute this conveyance for S125

In the damage suit of Louis Davis

the jury in the United States Circuit Court,
after being out little over an hour, late
yesterday afternoon returned a verdict of

L would hire labor in the cheapest market and

This labor leader has given expression

permit employers to hire labor in the cheap

different. Employers are subject to their

Through the Puyallup Indian
Reservation.

Two celebrated Pnyallup Indian reser-
walton cases have been appealed from the
United States Circuit Court for the Di s.
trict of Washington 10 the United States
Circuit Court of Appeals and papers were
fled yesterday. The facts are about the
same in both cases, and in each the de-
PENDANTS are the appellants.
Last spring the right of wav for a rail-
road from Tacoma, Wash, was run through
the reservation by Frank c. Ross, and In
dian Agent Edwin Eels, acting, as he sup
posed. according TO instructions from the
Secretary of the Interior in particular, the
Secretary of the Navy and other Cabinet
officers, drove Ross off the reservation with
the assistance of j. L. French, G. a. Car
penter and W. =. Goodwin.
Many of the Puyallup Indians own land

1887. and also have some peculiar rights
under the treaty made by Governor Isaac
l. Stevens in December. 1854. with them.
aud as they have severed their tribal rela-
tons they have become citizens owning
tn cir land in fee simple
Ross had secured a lease of some prop
erty from John and Susie Cook, Susie and
James Sitwell and Susie SQuatterham, all
Indians, and had secured right-of-way
privileges from them, and accordingly,
when Agent Eells drove him of the reseT-
walton, he at once began injunction pro-
ceedings against Eells and his assistan Is.
and the Cooks also applied for an in
junction. United States Judge Hanford
granted permanent injunctions in both
cases, and from his DEGREES Eells ct al.
now appeal.
The appellants will endeavor to show
that the land in severaIty act did not con-
template the leasing indefinitely by the
IN n
any part thereof. On the other hand the
respondents will contend that as citizens
of the United States the Indians could so
dispose of their lands if they desired. and
that Ross hao perfect right to secure a
railroad right of way from them.
