What U.S.Supreme Court
Holds i'm the Indian
Liquor Case.
DECISION IS SWEEPING.
Indians Who Become Citizens
Can Purchase Liquor the
Same as Others.

supreme court rendered decision tC
the effect that il was not a violation
of the federal statutes to sell liquor
to an Indian who had taken his
allotment Of land, there has been
keen interest in the exact nature OF
the decision and as to how sweeping
il was in character.
The decision is of vital interest to
the people Of every county in South
Dakota and other states in which
Indians have taken their allotments,
for the reason that it makes radical
departure from the conditions which
have existed for the past fifty years
and places under the counties and
states the police jurisdiction over
Indians who have taken their allot-
ments Of land.
In reply to telegram the office
OF United States Attorney Elliott
has received a complete copy of the
decision from the clerk of the
United States supreme court. In
view of the great interest in the
exact nature of the decision the fol
lowing extracts are given for the
information of our many readers
who are interested in the matter.
The decision was rendered in
case from Kansas which was taken
to the federal supreme court on
writ OF habeas corpus The petit
toner, Albert Heff, was on October
ID of last year convicted in the
United States court for the State of
Kansas under an indictment charg-
ing that he had unlawfully sold
liquor to an Indian named John
Dutici, Wuo ~ NdS dsScl tdiucu udA
taken his allotment of land.
The contention OF petitioner"
says the decision, is that the act OF
January 30, 1897, is unconstitu-
tional as applied to the sales of
liquor to an Indian who has received
an allotment and patent of land
under the provisions of the act OF
February s, 1887, because it is pro-
yided in said act that each and every
Indian to who allotments have been
made, shall be subject to the laws,
both criminal and civil, Of the state
in which they may reside, and
further that John Butler, having, as
il admitted, received an allotment
Of land in seyeralty and his patent
th=ssfer under the provisions Of the
act Of congress-of February s, 1887,
Is no longer ward Of the govern
ment, but a citizen Of the United
States and Of the State OF Kansas,
and subject to the laws, both civil
and criminal, OF said state.
The relation between the govern
meut and the Indians. the decision
continues, land the rights and obi
cations consequent thereon have
been the subject Of frequent con-
sideration by this court. In gen
ersi way il may be said that the
recognized relation between the
government and the Indians is that
Of superior and inferior, whereby
the latter u placed under the care
and control Of the former.
In the early dealings OF the gov
eminent with the Indian tribes the
latter was recognized as possessing
some Of the attributes Of nations, |
with which the former made treaties
and the policy 81 the government

A Graceful Act and a Good Appoint
meUt,

One of the most graceful acts, ac-
-eompanied by the best appointment of
his administration was that of Mayor
George W. McCaskrin, last evening.
when he named James w. Cavanaugh
as superintendent of water works.
In the first place it was the hand
some thing to- do in relation TO a forms
er opponent for the Office OF mayor. In
the second place it was the selection of
the right man for the place. No more
competent man could have been found
in all Rock Island for the head of one
Of the most important departments of
the municipal government.
Another thing. il was Labor day APP
pOintment. and there is no one OF whom
the laboring men think more often on
Labor day than they do of cavanaugh.
And last night it happened that the
mayor was thinking of him, too.
