and roads therein, said fort being used as a military post, is within the
provision of the Constitution of the United States, art. 1, 8, giving ex-
clusive jurisdiction over forts, etc., to Congress, and neither the state nor
other local authorities have power to interfere with any instrumentalities
necessary to the proper use of such location as a military post.
