Mr. Baker came into room, and 1 said to him just what I stat in that regard, and that I might ap- him, and that was all that was said was no appointment made. Now, if Baker went out with that as a club to work himself into the defense, then Mr Baker was acting grossly unprofessional There are some matters that have been de A in this case that are amusing to me. sometimes I just wonder where I According to the testimony in this case witness here uses this club; they say Daker used it, that I was unbending and I would make attorneys bow before me. Thoe words weren't hardly cool, according to the testimony, until another tack is made; we have a pull on Judge Scott; we have got a string on him, and I believe one of the r porters of the World-Herald safd, ‘Why, I have had Judge Scott fix sentences in such a way as to relieve a defendant in a case.’ 1 would understand where 1 was if 1 was only ne of those kind of fellows, but if I am don't know just where I am.

There isn't a s'ngle witn: that has been brought before the court who has testified to the truth of the matters testifiel to by Mr. Ish; not one. Those who claim they did hear the conversation corroborate Mr. Bal w if there is a single witne that has corroborated Mr, Ish, 1 ause for you gentlemen to name who he was. On the other hand, there is testimony of at least three witnesses that in part, at least, corrob. arate Mr. Daker. There has been something said about the character of some of these witnesses. For the purpose of passing on 1 wipe out entirely the testimony of Bachman e testimony of Miller, the tes timony of Brandt, and the testimony Brush; so I wipe them entirely whatever they do swear to is in corrobor tion of the festimony of Mr. Baker. The there stands the testimony Mr. Ish, directly, positively denied by Mr. Baker without any corroborating facts sworn in support of his position, with a number who have sworn in corrororation of Mr. Baker.

The evidence stands evenly; Mr. Baker need say noth until the ev dence is produced against him the burden is upon Mr. Ish, or rather upon the part of this comm o making thes charges, and which charges we proper to be male und the ecircumstance These charges must be established not by an equal amount of testi- mony, but by a preponderance of the testi- mony. The weight of evidence must be on that side, else this court would be doing vio- lence to the rule to take away from Mr. Baker the franchise that is as valuab! to him as his life.
