Ii takes ages to change the CONNER

shifted to northern Europe Then came

WANT new TRIAL
FOR SH|sslER
Defense Will Seek to Test Recently
Enacted Law.

Attorney T. H. Bartlett was In the
city yesterday from Grangeville, en-
route for Moscow, where he goes to ap-
pear before the district court in an
argument in the Shissler case, The at
torneys for the defense are now seek
Ing for new trial on the ground that
the act of the last legislature providing
for the taking of testimony in the pre-
liminary trial by short hand is uncon-
stitutiOnal The Shissler case was one
Of the very first in the state where the
provisions Of the new law were put in
force. II the law ia declared uncon-
stitutional. then Shissler has had no
trial and Is not properly convicted.
Shissler was tried in Idaho county
for the killing Of Williams at Sites
last June. He was convicted OF
manslaughter and sentenced to serve
a ten-years term in the penitentiary.
After his conviction and sentence he
broke jail at Grangeville and is now at
liberty. If a new trial is granted him
it Is probable that ne will come out of
hiding and appear for trial.
Attorney Bartlett is the prosecuting
attorney Of Idaho county and was in
strumental In the conviction Of Shiss-
Ter. He Is also the man whose name
has been presented to the senate by
President Roosevelt for the office of
register of the Lewiston land office as
successor to Mr.. West
When asked concerning the appoint
ment Mr.. Bartlett had nothing for pub
lication. 1t is known. however, that he
has the strong support Of Senator Hey
beurn and will have no difficulty in
being confirmed. He left for Moscow
on the night train last night and will
