not believe that Spokane compa-
MES took part in criminal cases.
He felt that requiring the defend
attn to get surety company bond
added to the burden.
The court replied that il the To-
cal companies had changed their
policy of business he did not know
Of 1t, and he had known of such
companies bonding men charged
with crime.
The attorney took exception to
the ruling of the court.
A similar question arose over the
bond of Vance Rehm, brought up
by Attorney John H. Roche, and
the ground was threshed over
again. The mother of the defend
ant by pledging her small property
to a couple of wealthy ranchers
could raise a bond. The same ruiz
ing of the court followed.
Attorneys at once began to dis
cuss the rulings after they left the
court room. Conflicting opinions
were expressed.
In order to get at the facts in
the matter Press representative
called on the local representative
of one of the surety companies. He
was told that in a criminal case
the company would demand the de-
post of cash with it equal to the
bond desired, and in addition the
company would expect fees.
