TI. GARRISON,and GARRETT ANDEWOX, Appellant*. IN THE SUPREME COURT OF TBE TERRI TORY or DAKOTA,AT JUKITERM, 1879. (Continued from Satnrday.) This admirable exposition of the law, arose in a case affecting a treaty with Mex '•co) and the same principle oust goTcira, in our courts, in regard to a treaty with an Indian nation. The latter is as much the Supreme law, as the former. If oar govern ment solemnly pledges its faith, by treaty, with Indian tribes, it must erer be held as sacred and bindibg aa if it were plighted to civilized nations. To maintain treaties, especislly with the weak, is the glory of a nation because it redounds to its honor and prosperity. To break them, ia to violate all law, and all faith and all honor. flarth»g« hits come down to us, through tbe long line of the centuries, as a people characterized by "Panic faith." A contract is unlawful which is contrary to an ezpresa provision of law, or contrary to the policy of express law, though not ex pressly prohibited or otherwise contrary to good morals, (See Armstrong Toler, 11. Wheat, 272 Kennett Chambers, Supra), and the law will not aid either of two par ties who are equally in the wrong. This cane very much resembles that of Dopaa Waasel (1 Dillon's C. C. K„ 213), in which it was held that the case was void by reason of being in violation of the act of congress reserving the Hot Springs' lands, and because the lease was against public policy and the lessee was not estopped to deny his landlord's title. From all the above considerations, the following conclusions must be drawn: 1. That the place in which the land in dispute lies, being also the place of the contract and of its performance,—was In dian country to which the Indian title waa not relinquished until by force of the agree ment approved February 28th, 1877. 2. That the locus in quo also became an Indian reservation, by virtue of the afore said treaty ratified by the senate on the 16th of February, 1869, and proclaimed eight days afterwards by the president and that it continued to be so reserved, until the ces sion of the title under the aforesaid agree ment, approved in 1877. 3. That the relation of landlord and ten ant, aa to this lot of ground, could not, and did not, legally exist on the said 24th of August, 1876, or afterward whilst the treaty was in force, or tbe land remained as In disn country, 4. That the said contract of lease, being at its date unlawful in its objects, and in violation of the treaty and of the statute, and contrary to public policy,—was and is entirely void. 5. And that, as the plaintiffs present ac tion altogether rests upon this alleged con' tract, the action must fail. 6. That consequently, the district court erred in refusing to charge the jury, in ac cordance with the defendant's request, that the plaintiff could not make any lawful lease of the ground in controversy. No question touching at all upon the pro visions of section 2319 of the revised stat utes of the U. S., has been presented in this case and, therefore, nothing in this opin ion is to be construed as relating to such mineral lands. The district court having erred in refus ing to charge the jury as stated, follows that the judgment must be reversed and the caine is remanded to the court below, with disectioos to dismiss the action and it 80 ORDERED All the justices concurring. [Cases referred to—Lessee of Pollard's Heirs, 14 Pet., 388-889, "it would be a bold proposition, that an act of congresf must'be first passed in order to give it" (a treaty) "effect as such," etc,,—also id., 412-41$ Worcester (Georgia, 6 Pet., 661-681?
