Months on Two Charges

What object John Tucker might
have had in securing his release from
the penitentiary on a writ of habeas
corpus is a puzzle to local county Off
cials unless it be that he hopes, des-
rite his plea of guilty at Anadarko, to
get an acquittal before a jury on the
felony charge Officials here declare
that under the law he will receive no
credit for tte time he has served in
the penitentiary in case he should be
convicted.
However, they have no ieda Of let

broke the old mans spirit Pending
the hearing of a motion for a new
trial Tucker skipped his $1,000 bond
but was brought back from Texas by
Dave Hill. one Of his bondsmen His
notion for a new trial was overruled
as was also the motion to have the
fcrfeitpTe Of the bond set aside. Then
Tucker concluded to make a clean
breast of everything and to plead gull
ty to felony whiskey charge against
him in the district court taking two
years at MeAlester and have the terms
in the county jail run concurrently SO
that when he left the pen he would be
free man. He pleaded guilty to an.
other charge and was given $l00 and
ninety days. Although no official no
taticn was made OF the serving Of all
sentences concurrently it was agreed
that he should be given credit by the
county during his pen service. In the
absence of a pen service, however, he
must come to Chickasha to serve the
seven months in the county Jail and
pay $lO0 fine and $275 costs, the
$3.50 fine having been liqudated to-
gether with the payment Of a large
sum on the forfeited bond and costs
In cases where district court terms
are three or four months off and the
Judge is holding court in other coun
ties it has been the practice, in isolat
ed cases, to permit a man to plead
guilty in another county and thus give
the prisoner an opportunity TO gel
credit on his sentence for the inter
mediate months. This has never be
fore been used as grounds on which tc
sue out a writ Of habeas corpus in this
part Of the state.
