Craig Begins Argument.

In his opening remarks Attorney
Craig assailed the feeble testimony In.
troduced by the state in its effort to
convict the men. No one can break
and enter building unless they
break and enter with the specific in
tent to commit crime.
In this case the state has offered
no proof that these defendants broke
and entered with the specific intent
to commit public offense. The fact
that door was open, q lock broken, is
OF no seriousness. The state must
prove that these men broke and enter
ed, and must add to that that it was
with serious intent The defense
Will show that these defendants were
100 drunk to have specific intent.
MI. Craig's statement that the judge
could not limit the punishment, but
Is required to give the maximum sen
tence under the indeterminate law,
was challenged by the county attor-
ney. Judge Withrow stated that where
the sentence might be a Jail sentence
or penitentiary sentence, the Judge
could inflict either.
The mere fact that man should get
intoxicated is no reason that he
should be convicted of crime that
ne did not commit We go into this
case knowing that You will not be pre-
JUDGED against these men because of
ihtoxlcation or grand jury indict-
ment.
attorney Craig then took up indivi-
oually the testimony Of each of the
witnesses. The first was that of Al
pert keppel, who testified to seeing
tne two defendants on the, evening on
Nnich the store was broken open He
pointed out that Albert Keppel was
mistaken. which may very easily have
Veeh the case, he said If the men
,'au been on the corner of Eighth and
NAN street they wouldn't have acted
az they did the attorney said. They
wouldn't have gone around in the
pold way they did if they intended
night.
Following. Mr.. Craig took up the
testimony of other witnesses in the
case.
