HARPER, J.

¶1Appellant was convicted under a complaint properly charging him with being a vagrant.

¶2[1,2] There is no statement of facts accompanying the record, and under such circumstances we must presume that the evidence justified the conviction. There are no bills of exception, consequently we presume the rulings of the court were correct; and, as the court submitted the offense charged, the judgment is affirmed.
