Here's Keokuk testimony.
]. M. Ingersoll, 1929 Johnson street,

years my back was stiff and lame and
troubled me greatly when / stopped
or lifted. The kidney secretions were
also scanty at times and the passages
were too frequent. Knowing of a
neighbor who had been cured of a
similar trouble by Doan's Kidney
Pills, got supply at Wilkinson's

therefore, do not hesitate to recon-

Of the governor to grant pardons, re-
prieves and commute sentences Of
convicted persons. He further urged
that the board, even If this law be
valid, had exceeded it's authority, for
it had no right to parole any person
convicted prior to July 4. 1907, the
date when the indeterminate sentence
law went into effect and the board
was organized.
Upon this motion Judge Towner
held with the county attorney and iss-
ued an order to the sheriff to take
Ware back to the penitentiary.
Wares attorney, J. l.. Livingston of
Croydon, at once sought writ of ha-
beas corpus in the court of Judge
Bank of Lee county but was unsuc-
cessful, Judge Banks ruling that the
action should be brought elsewhere.
Attorney Livingston then fled his
application for the writ with the SUI
preme court and secured a temporary
order from Justice McClain.
Holds Law is Valid.
The high court in its opinion asserts
that the first contention of County At
torney Sallman to the effect that the
law is invalid because it interferes
with the powers of the governor, is
unfounded.
1.-THE power of the government" the
opinion reads, ito pardon or reprieve
criminals, or to commute a sentence
pronounced by court is in no man
ner abrogated, restricted or removed
by this statute"
In knocking out the claim that the
law didn't go into effect until July d.
1907 and that to make it apply to per-
sons convicted and committed prior to
| that time would make it unconstftu-
tional as being an ex-post-facto law,
the high court says:
There is nothing in the statute
which renders it obnoxious TO the
constitutional inhibition of expost
facto legislation
! Makes no Distinction.
The supreme court pointed out
that no reason existed why the set OF
persons convicted under the old law
and doing time in the penitentiary
should be set apart as one class to
whom the new law should have NO
manner of application.
These persons are entitled to the
benefit of the law, it is held, and the
/ law itself is valid.
Hence it was found that Judge
Towner's action in recommttting Ware
could not be sustained and further
that Ware should be remanded to his
position and place under the parole
board.
Justice Weaver wrote the opinion
! 1t was concurred in by the entire
court, no dissenting opinion being re-
corded.

Supreme Court Decision That he is
Entitled to His Liberty From
Fort Madi-on Peniten-
tiary.
CASE IS UNUSUAL ONE
At one Time the Hearing of the sey-
mour Banker Was Set for
keokuk but it Was
Transferred.

Leroy Ware the Seymour banker, is
free again, the supreme court of the
state having decided that he was en-
titled to parole. His case was most
interesting one and at one time was
set for hearing in Keokuk but was
transferred to Fort Madison, where he
was being held by the authorities af-
ter having been paroled from the
penitentiary He went back to pri-
son, but is now entitled to his freedom
by the court decision which decided
that he was entitled to a parole. Tb .
Des Moines Register and Leader said
of his case in the Sunday edition:
The supreme court yesterday hand
ed down an opinion restoring Leroy
Ware, the Seymour banker, to the
liberties given him under the terms OF
his original parole from the state
penitentiary.
In SO ruling, the high court reversed
Judge Towner of Corning, who had
ordered Ware recommitted to the
state penitentiary upon the theory
that the parole board had no right to
act in his case.
In making this decision the high
court passed upon the validity of the
state law creating the parole board.
The opinion states that the law is
absolutely valid and constitutional.
Judge Towner had held that the pa
role boards authority extended only
over those prisoners who were sem
fenced after the board was created
and became active-July 4.19O7--but
the high court held this to be untrue.
1t is stated in the opinion that the
power of the board extends over per-
sons convicted under the old law as
we'll as those sent down under the new
indeterminate sentence law.
Released at Once.
Az the result OF this finding of the
court, Ware will be released at once
from the penitentiary at Fort Madison
and made free to enjoy liberty under
the provisions of the parole granted
him.
Wares case is an unusual one and
one of vast interest to the people in
the southern part of the state. In
1907 he was indicted twenty-five times
for making false entries, for embezzle-
ment and for fraudulent banking.
In court for trial, he entered into
an agreement with the state where
by he was to plead guilty to making
false entries, the state in return for
this plea to grant him exemption from
prosecution under the other indict-
ments during the term of his SEN
tence. This agreement was sanction
ed by the court
He drew a sentence of FIVE years,
hnt after a service of one year and
two months was paroled by act of the
parole board
County Attorney Sallman of Wayne
county had him rearrested at once I'M
der one of the old indictments. Ware
fought this under the agreement en-.
tered into promising him exemption
