ing on the said state of Oregon. so far
as the same shall form a common boun-

or states now or hereafter to be formed
or bounded by the same" 1t was claim
ed that the language Is susceptible of
but one construction. and that Is that
upon the admission of Oregon, it was
granted this jurisdiction. and II was
embodied in the state constitution and
the legislature of Oregon accepted and
ratified the same on February H. 1859
Thus the Jurisdiction became COM
pact between the United States and the
state of Oregon, and, after this power
had been once conferred upon the state
of Oregon by the act of congress and
accepted, it partakes of the nature of
compact, and Oregon cannot be di-
vested Of this power of jurisdiction
without its express consent.
Many authorities were submitted
showing the application of the principle
of concurrent jurisdiction upon the
Mississippi, ST. Croix and Ohio rivers.
where the states bordering upon the OPP
posite shores of the river have jurisdic-
ton clauses similar to the one in the
Oregon constitution. 1t was admitted
that Washington under the acts above
referred to, and the act admitting it,,
either has or is entitled to accept the
concurrent jurisdiction to the Oregon
shore, and. while 1t is contended that
a refusal to accept such jurisdiction
could not affect a prior grant of juris-
diction to Oregon, Washington has not
refused to accept the Jurisdiction, but
so far has merely failed. either by over
sight or otherwise, to act. 1t was also
claimed that fish trap is not such a
fixture as could in any manner modify
the effect of the concurrent jurisdiction,
but the limit of the concurrent jurisdic-
ton is the north shore of the Columbia,
which is specifically defined in the en-
abling act and the constitution.
Concurrent jurisdiction, as referring
to the claims of Oregon, seems to be a
misnomer. Washington only claimed
jurisdiction over half of the river, while
it was urged that Oregon has jurisdic-
ton over the whole river, and that, If
Washington has a law conflicting with
the laws of Oregon, and a citizen of
Washington put this law in force on
his own side of the river, he can be ar
rested by Oregon officers and punished
for violating the laws of Oregon.

INDIANS ARE NOT TREATED FAIRLY
Settlers Take Matters Into Their Hands
and Act without Discretion.

Settlers Take Matters Into Their Hands
and Act without Discretion.
Boise, July 22.-Ben f. Rich, editor
of the Rexburg Silver Banner, is in the
city. When asked about the trouble
in Jackson's Hole between the settlers
and the Bannock Indians. he stated
that the Indians had not been treated
properly. An Indian who had returned
had explained that he had killed three
elk and was arrested, while the white
man arresting him had killed five. The
Indians, Mr.. Rich said, could have been
brought out without trouble If 1t had
been gone about right, but the settlers
took the matter into their own hands
without appealing to the agent. They
descended upon the Indians and ar
rested a number of them. These were
tried before a justice of the peace and
fined heavily. the aggregate amounting
to some $1,000. The Indians could not
pay it and were herded by armed men
in a manner calculated to arouse their
resentment.
One batch was escorted by a body of
armed men after having their guns ta-
ken away. They were passing over
trail where the Indians had been ac-
customed to ride in freedom. 1t was
too much for Indian nature and the cap
tives made a break for liberty. The
guards at once opened fire at the fugi-
tives and killed several. They reported,
Mr.. Rich says, that they had killed only
one, but five riderless horses went over
the trail. AS a result the Indians are
very mad and may make trouble.

There were many rumors afioat, Mr..
Rich said, but they lacked verification.
1t was a fact, however, that some 200 Of
the Shoshones were missing from the

ly gone to help the Bannocks. Mr.. Rich

DO ASSESSMENT WORK ON CLAIMS
Law Must BE Observed This Year or
Forfeiture viii Result.

Washington. July 22.-Many miners in
the Pacific northwest are making inqui-
ries relative to assessment work on their
claims for the year 1895. The impression
seems to generally prevail that the last
congress passed a law suspending the as
sessment work on mining claims for the
year 1895. This is not the case. The law
to which the miners evidently refer and
which has in some cases misled them was
passed in July, 1894, during the long ses-
sion of the SD congress. and was intended
simply to tide unfortunate miners over
the depression existing in that year. The
special act In question provided for the
suspension of the law requiring 500 worth
of work to be performed or improvements
made during each year. 1t specifically
stated that the suspension was for the
year 1894. and no mention was made
whatever of the year 1895. Since 1t is re-
quired that such work shall be done by
the LIST of October of each year. and as
congress will not be in session before that
time. it stands all miners in good stead
to see that their assessment is promptly
done this year under the provisions of
the old law. if they expect to hold their
claims.
