DISPUTE JURISDICTION OF STATE

OKLAHOMA CITY. Okla. Nov 9.-The
long disputed question to the right
OF the state courts to try persons for
murder committed in Oklahoma before
II became a state will be argued at
length in the criminal court of appeals
which today began with the hearing in
the case of Henry Preuitt wealthy
cattle raiser of Comanche. who is charg
ed with the murder OF Ben Collins. a
Chickasha Indian policeman, near Tisho-
mingo.
Collins was shot from ambush In n
night attack near Tishomingo some time
before Oklahoma became a state. Preu-
lit and several other cattle men who
were said to have been In the attacking
party. were arrested and indicated for
the murder. When Oklahoma became a
state the Indictment against Preuitt was
puashed and another Indictment returned
by the Johnston county grand jury.
In similar case which was tried in
the state courts of Oklahoma an appeal
was taken to the United States supreme
court, upon the ground that the state
court had no Jurisdiction. The supreme
court decided in the famous Pickett case
in February, 1910 that the state of
Oklahoma could not prosecute for MUIR
der committed in Indian territory prior
to statehood. Notwithstanding this de-
cision the criminal court of appeals has
decided in eight other cases that the
state courts had the right to prosecute
for murder in such cases and the out
come of the present case Is. therefore.
awaited with considerable interest
Should the court of appeals follow the
precedent OF the eight other cases. Preu-
tits lawyers intend to take the case be-
fore the United States supreme court
to obtain a new ruling in this case which
will definitely settle the question of jur-
isdictlon.
