ARE POINTS OF LAW
Two Cases OF Interest are Being Tried
At EeaVeu worth

Ardmore, l. T., Oct 1.-two cases of
very great interest to the people of the
milan territory, and especially to the
residents Of the southern district, in the
vicinity Of PauIs Valley. viii came up
for trial or the 18th inst. at Leavenworth.
kan, says the Ardmorte
All remember the case OF +. II
Shrivener. who was tried before Judge
Thomas ior introducing and selling liquor.
who entered a plea OF guilty and was
senterced to four years imprisonment in
the pcnitenti2ry and fined 81 SEQ and com
mittec until the fine and costs were paid.
Before Judge Hook, an application for
"a writ OF habcas corpus was asked and
granted against the warden Of Che peni-
tertiary at Fort Leavenworth, to be heard
upon the above date.
The grounds upon which Schriveners
attorneys claims he is entitled to the
writ are. that all prisoners tried after
the end of the regular three weeks term
Of court at this place were void, because
the lew is that the judge shall designate
the time at which the court shall con-
we're and the term it shall continue at this
place.
The order Of the court Of appeals at
South McAlister was that Judge Thomas
should hold q term of court as designated
by Judge Townsend. SO the applicant
claims. Furthermore, that the sentence
was an excessive one, inasmuch that it
provided that the prisoner should remain
incarcerated until the fines ana costs are
paid, While the law makes no such pro-
vision, as amy one under the law after
serving thirty days can make an affidavit
that he is unable and too poor TO pay the
fine and they viii then be released.
The same grounds as asked for, for
Frank Hunt, convicted Of robbery and
given fifteen years at hard labor He
was tried within the three weeks. but
was not sentenced for several days after
the three weeks had expired
