10 TTTE BEE: OMAHA. TUESDAY. ATRTTj 1.1. .009. MM DAD TOO BIG A JURY Should Hare Brought Haikell Case Before Sixteen. I I! 1 I 1 I : If M 111! II I II Sumnirr (Style IUxk and any 15c Ladles' II U M IK II Home Journal rattern 2 Of Ilk 4 It TWENTY-ONE ON THE PANEL peelut Assistant Attorney Gfrl Rrtarne from Oklahsai, Wkvr II Arted for (lfrimnl la Town Lt Cases. lcc.el Assistant United Statn Attorney General Itush, who presented the case liinrt Governor Haskell of Oklahoma, haa efurncd to Omaha. In hia Judgment, if tha basis of quashing the indictment b caus It was brought by a grand Jury of mora than sixteen Is correct, a great Jll delivery In Oklahoma Is one of the un pleaiant things to' contemplate. Referring to the case, he ald:( "If the law 'was correct as an nounced by Judge Marshall, all per sons charged with crime committed during territorial days have been similarly Indicted by grand Juries so constituted and In rases now pending would be entitled to the aame Immunity from prosecution by a grand Jury of more than sixteen, and hence weuld necessarily result In a very large lall delivery In Oklahoma." Mr. Rush brought with him a copy of the opinion of Judge Marshal which knocked out the. Indictments against Haskell. In the opinion the court said: That the misconduct charged against the prosecuting attorneys amounted to nothing more thsn the admission of Incompetent evidence, namely, a few affidavits before the grand Jury and the Judge brushed this aside bv saylnp; that there was no showing ti-fi t'i" "'pre preludtilnl to the defendants ' and that If the Introduction -of incompetent testimony Is Itself such misconduct as to warrant the quashing of sn Indictment that but few Indictments would be Immune from such an attack; that even courts themselves, differ as to what Is competent or Incompetent evidence. The decisions of courts are unanimous that If there Is any competent evidence, the Indictment must be austalned: that the prosecuting attor neys hsd a right to advise the Jury as to the law of thn case and that If there was nn Inadvertent error, which Is not shown . I'V the evidence, by prosecution Htt"rneys ' cunnt he nmgnlfled Into misconduct. Tee Ufaar Grand Jury. 'In his opinion the court holds, however, that the grand Jury consisted of twenty one persons and was organised under the laws of the United States relating to grand Juries and In force since Oklahoma was ad mitted Into the union as a state," said Mr. Rush, "but that since the crime charged was wholly committed In territorial days and within that part of the state known as Indian Territory, by an act of congress the criminal practice acts of Arkansas were in 'force and that this offense was subject at all times during Its commission to an Indictment by a grand Jury of sixteen and no more as prescribed by the Arkansas laws. "The court therefore holds that when Oklahoma was admitted Into the union as a stste and the criminal procedure under the laws of the United States put In force, and those of Arkansas repealed; that when the grand Jury under the laws of the United States was summoned, consisting of twenty-one persons, the government Could mora easily secure an indictment by the necessary twelve votes out of a grand Jury so constituted, than out of a grand Jury of sixteen persons required by the Arkansas act. This. It is Bald, altered the situation to the -disadvantage of the defendants and therefore the enabling act In this particular and tha procedure adopted was ex post rjcto as to the defendants and void, and for this the Indictments were quashed." ( Mayor Throws Colonelcy in the .Governor's Teeth "He'll Have D d Sweet Time Trying to Placate Me and My Friends that fay," Sayi Mayor. Governor Shallenberger is wrong if he thinks he can placate Mayor Dahlman and hia forces by making the mayor a colonel on his mutinous staff. "Well, I should say I would not have the commission," declured Mayor Jim wiili great emphasis when asked If he would accept It. "Us'U have a d d sweet time making a colonel out of mo or any of my friends," added the mayor. "I wouldn't have ac cepted a commission In the first place, and especially not under the circumstances since Shallenberger has done what h haa." Bright and early Monday morning a rumor gained currency that the governor bad hit upon the novel scheme of placating Dahlman and ills Jlmocrats by making thn mayor the head colonel on bis staff. But If the governor ever entertained such an Idea, b reckoned without his host. The matter drew a "rise" from Mayor Jim as quick as a flash and as tart as a crab.

Having erected many of the public buildings anil a few thousand residences, while occupying himself a modest residence, the architect will now design a residence for himself. Whether after It Is erected, Mr. Latenser will have to cut a few extra doors, erect a stairway or build on an addition which he forgot to put In the original plans Is a matter of conjecture among his associates and other architects. Some are offering- to make the plans for him; others Insist he cannot make rtans for himself which any contractor can execute. While Mr. Iatenser will not announce what aize residence he will build, a deal was closed Monday by LriUham Davis, whereby Mr. Ijttenser secures the Updike lot at Thirty-eighth street and Dewey avenue for $10,000. ' The lot was owned by P. H. Updike of California, who at one time contemplated the erection of a fine residence. It is one of the desirable vacant properties in the west residence section.
