Either it was legal under U.S. law, or there was no U.S. law.

The Militia Act of 1792, as amended in 1795 requires that U.S. law operate in all the states.

The Judiciary Act of 1789 requires that "controversies of a civil nature" between the states be submitted to the Supreme Court.

You don't know the history.
