Game Laws Apply Only In Par on
Reservations.
st. Paul. Nov. IA restricted view
Of the authority of the game laws over
reservation Indians is given by the su-
preme court in the cas- Of the state
against AL Cooney, from Becker NJ
ty, in which Julia Selkirk, the appel
liant, is an Indian and Indian trader.
1t is held that Indians under the tribal
relation may kill game out Of season In
their traditional manner for their W
use, and that their agents may store
it for sale to Indians out Of season.
This case is one brought by the game
commission to seize game so held. 1t
is agreed that the game laws are ef-
fective against Indians to forbid their
bringing game to market. But among
themselves the law does not apply.
