The total vote in Shawnee county
was about what was expected, little
short of $4,000, but the Republican
pluralities generally were larger than
expected. Chairman Philips predicted
about $500 for Roosevelt and not
much under that for the rest of the
ticket. Commenting this predic-
tion. the Journal (Dem.) asked what
kind of dope the county chairman was
using. But Roosevelt got a plurality
of about 5000. Sheriff Lucas got over
5000, County Clerk Newman got over
5000. Clerk of Court Curtis got within
100 of 5000. Senator Belts got over
1900, County Attorney Hungate got
$500, Treasurer Bowen got nearly
$500 and Register of Deeds Marshall
got within 20 of 5,00O.-Topeka Cap

Our newspaper neighbor. however, is
keeping up its Misrepresentation OF
this paper and of the facts.
Concerning the majorities in Shaw
nee county, there was the widest pos
sible range. Coleman received a ma
pority of s62 and Dayhoff $50, while
kelly received no majority at all, and
Roosevelt received 5.S27 and Hoch
2,6s6. The State Journal has no quar-
rel with Captain Philips, but his pre-
dictions about Shawnee county were
wide eff the results.
Chairman Philips said to the State
journal on the Saturday preceding
election day:
81 believe President Roosevelt and
Congressman Curtis will carry Shaw
nee county by 1000 majority. Mr..
Hoch and T. T. Kelly will carry the
county by 5000 majority. The reason
make these predictions is that
Bailey's majority was $500 and Stan
ley's majority in Shawnee was 400.
The normal majority is $500 and
5000. I am aware that Mr.. Kelly will
be scratched but think there are ele-
ments that will reimburse Kelly for
all he is scratched by Republicans.
The rest of the Republican ticket will
go through without a break"
The following are the official fig

instruction No. 6 asked for by the
! prisoner, which reads as follows
"The Court instructs the jury
that the offense of forgery consists
in the false making or altering of
a written instrument, to the pref
p, udice of another's rights and the
intent to defraud, that in the case
at bar the only two questions be-
fore the jury are % did the de-
PENDANT alter the instrument after
it was signed by C. w. Grier, and
(2) was such alteration (if made
by the defendant) done with in
tent to defraud and that the ques-
ton of intent need not be inquired
into by them unless they first be-
lieve from the evidence, beyond a
reasonable doubt that the defen-
dant altered the said instrument
after it was signed by G.. W. Grier
and if the evidence leaves a reas-
enable doubt in their minds as to
whether the said defendant alter
ed the said instrument after it was
so signed by the said C. W. Grier,
they must find the defendant not
guilty.
After refusing said last quoted
instruction, the Court gave at the
instance of the prison instructions
Nos. 8, 9, 10, II and II, in each
of which was embodied the theory
of fraudulent making of the order,
or fraudulent procurement Of the
Mayors signature thereto, which,
as shown, is not supported by evil
dence. This was, in effects, a mod
ification by the Court of a proper
instruction such as made it bad.
The prisoner was compelled by the
Court to give instructions differ
ent from what he asked for. He
had requested proper one, and
was compelled by the ruling Of
the Court upon it to give improper
ones. SO it amounts to an errOn-
eous modification by the Court.
For the errors aforesaid, the
Judgment will be reversed, the
verdict set aside, a new trial
awarded, and the case remanded
for further proceedings according
to law and the directions herein
given.
