Des Moines, Aug. S.--John Fletcher.
assistant attorney general has written
to Fort Madison insisting that a date
be set as soon as possible for the hear
ing in district court of Lee county on
the matter of the legality Of the Fort
Madison ordinances forbidding the
wardens from letting convicts outside
the prison walls. The case has been
hanging fire since carly in the sum-
mer. and al! efforts on the part of the
warden and state authorities to ex
pedite 1t have failed.
Mr. Fletcher at one time went aus far
as West Liberty on the way to Fort
Madison to present the matter to the
court, but was recalled on information
that City Attorney F'railey, of Fort
Madison. was out of the state and the
arguments could not proceed. When
an effort was made to fix date for
the hearing ii was found that one
Judge was away on his vacation. AS
soon as the other got thru with his
term he went away on vacation SO
II has not been possible to agree on a
date when the court would be ready
and the city authorities would be
ready.
Purely Legal Question.
AS the case is one purely of legal
question as to The constitutionality of
an ordinance it would not be neces-
sary at all for the warden to be pres
ent; in fact, his presence would add
nothing whatever to the case.
The Statement. is given publicity at
Fairfield, by Charley Junkin. member
of the republican state committee and
head of the publi2ity committee of the
organization. that the trial has been
postponed from tree t. time In order
that the warden may fill chautauqua
engagements. The attorney general
says that there can be no occasion
whatever for the presence of Sanders.
The state Ia very DESTROYS of having
tho court hear the argument as soon
AS possible, anI at one time. in order
to hasten the matter papers were
drawn to have tine supreme court take
charge of the case directly.
