4 Supreme Court Decision.

On January 16, 1898 the supreme
court of the state of Idaho handed
down decision of unusual import
Nnce, which totally reversed the
ruling made by Willis Sweet, now
congressman, when he was Judge OF
tho first judicial district. This de-
cision of judge Sweets was severely
criticised at the time as violation
OF ono Of the first principles OF
common law and common sense, to
Wit: that the title of the tenant
cannot be impeached without also
impeaching the title of the landlord.
Wits title was never disputed,
and the claim was openly made at
the time that politics had more to
do with the decision than law or
justice, because the defendants
were Chinese who had no vote, and
there were votes to be gained by
deciding in favor of the jumpers.
Following are the points of the
supreme court syllabus:
In 1872, one A. Thornton and
others, all citizens Of the United
States, located certain placer mi
ming claims in the Elk City mining
district in Idaho territory. In 1872
they sold this property to James
Witt, also an American citizen, who
held and worked the same until
1882, when he leased it to All Kee

Fair Plan for Miners.

Taxing the met proceeds of
mines is proposition now pending
before the Legislature. The boys in
nine-tenths of the mines in this
state who have spent years of hard
labor in developing quartz claims
which have never realised dollar
of profit for their owners would be
glad to have closer definition of
the term. How much revenue will
it bring into the treasury? And
does it imply that the proprietor
is to be repaid for his years of toll
out of the proceeds when the pro-
perty is first placed on paying
basis, or is it to be taxed on its net
product the instant it produces
anything above cost of operating
Give the miner an equal chance
with the farmer or merchant. Let
all be treated alike. Why not tax
the net proceeds of the farms, the
banks and stores and all other il
dustries in the state?

From Northern Idaho.

Henry Wax, Esq, the leading
merchant of Grangeville, idaho,
paid the Statesman a very pleas
ant call and gave us some very
interesting items regarding Camas
Prairie and Northen Idaho gener-
ally. He says that every acre OF
the prairie is taken up and settled
by n first-class lot of citizens, who
are developing the country admir-
ably. Land which less than a year
ago was held at So per acre is
changing hands at three times that
figure, with IA still further upward
tendency. For fruit. grain of all
kinds and vegetables no country
on the coast can equal it for the
quality and quantity raised. Fort
bushels of wheat and three tons o.
| timothy hay to the acre are about
the average. But it is the mines
in the mountains tributary, Mr.
Wax is most enthusiastic about. In
Elk City the quartz and placer
mines are attracting great atten-
ton from capitalists, and many
thousands of dollars are being in
vested. Tho ore is very easily
worked, the mines easy of develop
ment and wood and water sufficient
for 500 years to come. All that is
needed to make that camp the
leader in Idaho is wagon road,
and that will be built this year.
The Bullion mine on Salmon river
is turning out well and several car
loads of ore packed out on mules
paid nearly $50 per ton over all
expenses, and very little powder
used for blasting as the ore can be
picked down. This mine is admir-
able situated for mining, being
worked through a tunnel 400 feet
from the surface. All together the
prospects for the country are very
cheering. Mr.. Wax leaves for his
mountain home this evening.

& Co., all aliens. The Chinese occu-
pied and worked the property until
Oct. Is, 1889, when A. c. Mclean
and others forcibly ousted them
from it. The Chinese brought suit
in the First district. court to re-
cover possession of the premises,
and damages for custer. Mclean
filed a demurrer to their complaint,
one Of grounds of the demurrer be-
ing the incapacity to sue in all the
plaintiffs named except Witt, be-
cause of failure to allege citizen
ship i'll the complaint. Judge
Sweet, upon the grounds quoted
sustained the demurrer and as to
all the parties plaintiff whose citi-
zenship was not averred, action
was dismissed. An appeal was
taken from this ruling. In revers.
ing the decision of Judge Sweet ant
remanding the case to the lower
court, the demurrer to be overrule(
and plaintiffs to be permitted tt
answer, the court says: "The Chin
csc plaintiffs were tenants of Wit
at the time of the alleged oustel
by the defendant. Their possession
was his possession. An custer o
the tenants by one claiming ad
versely to the landlord is an ouste
of the landlord and this action
might have been properly brough
by Witt alone. There was nothin
in the laws either of the Unite,
States or of Idaho prior to the ac
of congress of March 3, 1887, a
least, which prohibited the rentin
or leasing by one holding unde
/ valid location of mining ground t
aliens" The point of the decisio
r is then, that it is lawful to lcas
: property in Idaho to aliens.
