OPINION
ZENOFF, Justice:
An indictment returned by the Washoe County Grand Jury charged appellant with first degree murder (NRS 200.030(2)). This appeal is from a district court order denying his habeas corpus petition for bail and the sole contention is that since first degree murder is no longer denominated as a capital offense, we are compelled to admit him to bail because of the provisions of Nev.Const., Art. 1, § 7.
