INDIAN RIGHTS,
Court Rules They May Hunt and
Fish in Primative Manner.

The department Of the interior is
sending out to all Indian agents cir
cuar copy of decision recently hand
cd down by the United States supreme
court affecting the hunting rights of
Indians on their own reservations. The
case came up, according to C, A. Grant,
subofticial of the department, who
is now a guest of the Seattle, by the
arrest of some Indians on a Minnesota
reservation charged with violating the
fish and game laws According TO the
opinion the court holds that Indians
can kin game and take fish ON their
reservation in spite Of state regula-
tlons to the contrary.
The court argues that the state au-
thoritles have extensive jurisdiction or
the reservation, acquired by years Of
government and treaties with the In
dlans living on the reservation, but
holds that tribal Indians have license
to hunt and fish ON their own domain
