THE JOHNSON CASE.
= Supreme Court Decision Which Does
Not Deeide-The Main Question
Was Not Passed On.

The supreme court decision
in the Charles Johnson habeas
corpus case has been received
and is being generally discuss
ed 10y our local attorneys.
From W. /. Cruce. Esq,
who has examined the decision,
we learn that the following
questions were disposed Of:
That the courts in the Indian
Territory now have, and have
had since the first day of Sep
tember. 1896. jurisdiction over
all offenses committed within
the Territory, over which the
courts at Paris, Fort Smith
and Wichita had not acquired
jurisdiction; and it is settled 10y
\ the decision that the issuing of
a warrant and placing the same
in the hands of an officer by the
outside courts does not give
those courts jurisdiction over
the ease.
The main question "a which
the Territory bar was especially
interested was. have the Paris.
Fort Smith and Wichita federal
courts have jurisdiction over
crimes committed III the Terri
tory prior to September /. 1896,
where warrants have been issu-
ed but no Indictment found 10y
these courts until after that
date. THIS question was cvaded
by the supreme court. that
body holding that the records
did not raise the question,
hence it was not necessary to
decide it.
The last proposition. how
ever, was exactly the one ou
which q decision was wauted.
aud all tine records m the ems,
show that 1T was the paramount
question and the turning point
in the ease.

would affect many prisoners in
