DETa HE puzzle for many Republican voters in Essex county is
III why The county committee, despite every protest insisted
uon the denomination of the members of the Legislature
who SO scandalously misrepresented them at Trenton last winter.
More than ten thousand Republican voters recorded their protest
in the September primaries. This was not the ordinary rivalry of
W sets of party candidates for nomination, but an expression of
deepseated and uncompromising discomfort with the position taken
by the party representatives in the Legislature. Why did the
county committee take such a risk of defeat? But the explanation
seems plain. 1t is partly furnished in the record of the New Idea
organization in Essex. When it failed in the primary in the cleo
ton it submitted to the abuses it had so loudly cried against, al
though the Regulars did not show the New Idea the same grace
when the New Idea county ticket was set up in 1908. 1t was
slaughtered at the polls. The Assembly delegation was renomi-
mated in the belief that the Progressive Republican leaders would,
tas usual, sacrifice their principles and indorse it and carry with
Them the ten thousand protesting voters. Why the assemblymen
were favored above any other candidates by the committee need not
be told. They had proved willing Instruments at the session last
winter. and could be relied on again to show the same insenslblhty
to public sentiment and their obligations as Legislators.

INDIANS GET LAND.
Yakima Tribe In State of Washington
Enriched to Extent of $2,0O0,00O.

Spokane, Wash, Jan. 17.-Indians
of the Yakima tribe came into their
own when Judge Edward Whitson, sit
for the district of eastern Washington,
handed down decision in the suit of
the United States against the North
ern Pacific Railway company by which
160,976 acres of timber and agricultur-
al lands in the Cedar River valley i'm

eral hundred homesteaders i'm the
district. also hasten the opening OF
ton.
Judge Whitson holds that the act
of Congress in 1887, granting the land
to the railroad. did not eXtinguish the
title of the Indians to it, or quash
the treaty made with the tribe by
Territorial Governor Isaac Stevens at
Walla Walla i'm June, 1869, wherein the
tract in litigation was annexed to the
reservation. The government con-
tended that the surveys were incor-
rect either through fraud or mistake.
and that the grant was intended by
Congress to be bounded by the natur-
al divide of the land, the survey of the
railroad overlapping, and as such 1t
should revert to the tribe.
The railroad set out that the statute
of limitation had expired. but this con-
tention was set aside by decisions Of
the supreme court of the United sta
ties covering similar cases in New
Mexico and Nebraska. The original
and later surveys made by the rail-
road were declared to be correct, also,
