The opinion states the case.
M. M. Guinn, of Rusk, for appellant.
Lloyd W. Davidson, State's Attorney, of Austin, for the State.
Conviction is for selling intoxicating liquor in Cherokee County, Texas, which county is by proper averments alleged to be dry territory; punishment being a fine of $150.00 and ten days in jail.
The precise question is presented in the present record as in Sam Watson v. State, No. 19578, this day decided [page 632 of this volume], with reference to the certificate of the county judge as to publication of the order declaring the result of the local option election in Cherokee County.
The reasons which demanded a reversal in Watson's case call for the same order here.
The judgment is reversed and the cause remanded.
