r. Burtorl OF Kansas, convicted Of ac-
cepting money from a company under

supreme .ourt is the only tribunal hav-
ing sole Jurisdiction.
The defendant urges that the checks
amounting to $4,000 were cashed at
Washing on and that If any offense
was committed it was done at Wash
ington ard not at st. Louis.
Burton who was present In the court
was fine,l $4,000 and sentenced to Iron

bad effect on the delegates. many Dunn
supporters would have voted against
unseating the Collins delegates from
the Minneapolis county. AS 1t was.
however, the nomination for governor

Princeton mans adherents were quick

The Collins men. seeing themselves
beaten. accepted defeat with good
