    Emphasizing use of "remain" in the enabling act and section 203 of the constitution to emphasize that state and federal jurisdiction over Indian lands was fixed at statehood

    "Even if such lands be deemed part of an Indian reservation, the property of persons other than Indians situated thereon might be subjected to taxation by the laws of this state." In the case of Anderson v. Brule County, 67 S.D. 308, 313, 292 N.W. 429, 431, the court says regarding this matter: "That these and similar provisions in other enabling acts and constitutions of the several states were inserted for the purpose of maintaining ample supreme powers on the part of the United States to permit it to fully respond to its legal and moral obligations to the Indians rather than for the purpose of withholding power from the states to exercise jurisdiction over the reservations, and that it was intended the states should exercise a limited jurisdiction over Indian reservations within their exterior boundaries
