DAVIDSON, P. J.

¶1Relator resorted to a writ of habeas corpus for the purpose of obtaining bail. Upon a hearing the district judge remanded him without bail. After a review of the evidence, we are of opinion the court was in error, and the case is bailable, for which reason the judgment is reversed, and bail is granted in the sum of $5,000, upon the giving of which in the terms of the law the officer having him in charge will release him from custody.
