Subject to its jurisdiction is pretty cleanly meant to mean paying taxes and obeying laws enforced upon them, which I concede could mean one is subject to multiple jurisdictions but it is not necessary to be subject to only one.

"Paying taxes" cannot be an important part of this. At the time this amendment was passed, income taxes not only did not exist, but were also unconstitutional.
