TWO COURT TERMS
OPEN IN VINITA
Federal And state District Courts
Begin sesslon---Federal Docket
is Short.

The federal court for tho eastern
district of Oklahoma convened in Vim
ita last Monday, with Judge Ralph
Il. Campbell, Of Muskogee presiding
The court only organized this morn
ing, and at noon adjourned until the
state district court, which also meets
here could organize and vacate the
chamber to be used by the federal
court.
The docket for the Vlnita term OF
the federal court is rather short and
II is expected that the court will ad-
journ for the term in about a week.
The state district court convened at
o'clock this afternoon and organized
the grand jury and adjourned to the
office of the district clerk in order
that the federal court might have use
OF the regular court chamber. 1t Is
not likely that any ceses will be heard
in either court until tomorrow. The
state court will be In session foul

2S Hour Law Argued
Before Supreme Court

is moved In trains
III there be a confinement In cars
beyond twenty. eight hours during
transit under circumstances which
constitute violation Of the statute,
It must be the fault of the train, says
the brief. Congress has not said
whether the ofenses shall be per head
of stock, per shipment, per car load,
or per train load II congress had In
tended there should be a fine of $500
"the maximum penalty for one offense)
for each head Of stock delayed, or for
each shipment delayed or for each
car load delayed, 1t was easy to say
so. Bearing in mind the rule of strict
Interpretation of penal statutes, the
only reasonable construction of the
statute is that the detention of all
stock on the same train constitutes
but one oftense.
Congress did not deem 1t neces-
sary to be so severe as to permit a
fine of $500 for each shipment In a
train load containing possibly fifty
shipments, when a single fine OF $500
would answer as well"
Several routes lead to the conclu-
sion that the separate shipment was
meant as the basis, the government
contends
Suppose cattle are loaded into cars
by the carrier and kept more than 2S

: He asked the same question where
