¶1*44The opinion of the court was delivered by
¶2This was a criminal prosecution upon an indictment, wherein the defendant, William Shenkle, was charged in three counts with selling intoxicating liquor in violation of law, and in keeping and maintaining a nuisance. He was convicted under the first and second counts for selling intoxicating liquors, but was not convicted under the third count for keeping and maintaining a nuisance; and he was sentenced to pay a fine of $100 and to be imprisoned in the county jail for the period of thirty days. From this sentence he now appeals to this court.'
¶3I. It appears from an inspection of the indictment that the name of no witness by the name of Franklin was indorsed on the indictment; and yet the court in its instructions stated that the state had elected to rely upon an alleged sale of beer delivered by the witness Franklin to the witness Albert Hoover. The defendant now claims that error was committed by the court below in permitting the witness Franklin to testify. There is nothing further in the record that tends to show that any person by the name of Franklin testified on the trial, or what his testimony was, or that any objection was made to his testimony, or for whom he testified, if he did testify; and from anything appearing in the record he may have testified on behalf of the defendant. Such a record certainly does not affirmatively show error; and error is never presumed.
¶4II. The court instructed the jury, among other things, that if'they found that “the defendant sold, bartered or gave any beer to the said Albert Hoover, delivered to him by the witness Franklin, without having a permit to sell intoxicating liquors as required by law, you [they] must find the defendant guilty,” etc. The objection to this instruction is, that it directs the jury to find the defendant guilty if he merely “gave any beer” to Hoover. Now what the evidence in the case Avas, is not shown; nor was any objection made or exception taken to this instruction-. In all probability no material *45error was committed by the giving of this instruction. Certainly no material error is shown; and therefore the judgment of the court below will not be reversed because of this instruction.
¶5III. The instructions of the court to the jury seem to be sufficient. Besides, the court was not asked to give any further or additional instructions, and therefore it did not err in failing to do so.
¶6IY. The court below instructed the jury, among other things, as follows: “ Any one who counsels, aids or abets in the commission of any offense may be charged, tried and convicted in the same manner as if he were the principal.” The defendant took no exception to this instruction at the time it was given, but he now complains that it is erroneous. We however think it correctly states the law. The statute provides as follows:
“Sec. 115. Any person who counsels, aids or abets in the commission of any offense, may be charged, tried and convicted in the same manner as if he were a principal.” (Comp. Laws of 1879, ch. 82, § 115.)

¶8No material error having been shown in this case, the judgment of the court below will be affirmed.
