DECISION OF MUCH IMPORTANCE
Rendered by Court Regarding Munlc-
ipal Arrests.


In Americus, as in every other city
of the state, much interest is manifess
ted in the supreme court decision, just
rendered, in which it is held that mu
nicipal officerr, policemen and town
marshals, are not authorized to make
arrests for municipal offenses without
warrants issued by due process of law,
unless the alleged offense is committed
in the presence of the officer, or 1t is
fully established that the alleged of
fender is endeavoring to escape. It is
believed by lawyers the decision will
have a far-reaching effect. It is as
serted that in Atlanta and other large
cities of the state at least rs per cent
of the arrests made according to the de-
cision are illegal. The particular case
was that of Oscar Porter vs.. the state,
brought up from the Stewart county
superior court. The lower court was
reversed According to the decision,
when an alleged offender is reported
TO the police for violation of city
ordinance, the off GER must FIRST get a
warrant for his arrest, unless failure to
arrest at once will defeat the ends oil
justice.
