BE Appealed 10 II Necessary.

That the state ot Washington has 70
title to school lands held BY +, under the
lieu indemnity land grant from the United
States was sQuarely decided ~ Judge
Benson In the superior court yesterday in
the ssuit brought BY Or. Hamilton Still
ron against II. Sommers 10 enjoln waste
and trespass upon q tract OF such land
which Or stllson claims as a home
stead and which Sommers had leased from
the state al school land The Importance
OF tae case VIII be apparent when Il Is
considered that the state claims 10 own
several hundred thousand acres OF land
under the lieu land grants. The case
will doubtless be appealed 10 the supreme
court Of the United States before the
question IS finally determined and IL is
possible that the final decision may re-
verse Judge Benson's ruling.
BY the act OF congress Of 1853 the terri
tory OF Washington was granted for
school purposes out OF the government
domain sections is and 81 in each town

10 select other lands in lieu OF those
granted where such sections had been
already settled upon or were non-exlstent

In the university land eases. held TO be-
not grant but a mere reservation
when the state was admitted the lands
were again granted the state by the en-
abliag act aud by the act Of congress OF
1891. but upon condition only that a Sc
lection OF lieu lands should be made by
tire state and approved by the secretary
o. the Interior. Several acts of the legis-
lature have been passed authorizing such
selections. but none was ever made and
approved by the secretary and the lieu
lands now claimed by the state are held
under a selection made under the act cf
1883. which the supreme court Of the ter
ritory had decided 10 be a mere reserya-
ton.
Judge Benson'E ruling Is that since
no selection was ever made by tho state
under any other than the act OF 1873
which did not amount TO a grant In fee,
the state has no title 10 its school lieu
lands.

Tho gambling and social evils. II may
problems with which the grand jury are
wrestling. The ministerial association,
IL Is known, has sent committees 10 the
grand jury room, and the jury has re-
quested and been given fresh instructions
In regard to its duties in the matter Of
the suppression OF vice.
AS published IL the Post-Intelligencer
yesterday morning the grand jury late
Thursday evening sent 10 Judge Benson
a closely sealed communication which
was not delivered that night. Yesterday
the judge stated that the communication
was a private one. but that the grand
jury had been before him requesting in
structions as TO gambling and other evils,
and that he had given II instructions
along the same lines as he had previously
done. The jury wished a special instruc-
ton as TO what weight should be given
TO communications from the Ministerial
Association and statements made by its
committees. Upon this point Judge Ben
son instructed that statements Of the
Ministerial Association or the gamblers
association or any other organization
were not - be considered; that the testi-
mOny OF sworn witnesses only was entitled
10 have any weight.
The judge, after giving his Instructions
further Informed the jury that its time
should not be consumed in hearing trifiing
complaints which could be equally well
handled by the prosecuting attorney. but
that important matters only should be
nyestigated. The jury was further ad-
monished that its session was being pro-
longed 10 an unwarranted extent aud that
II would be expected to complete It's la
bors by the end Of next week.
Judge Benson says that only an emer-
gency will induce him TO allow the jury
to remain in session more than week
longer.
