¶1 This conviction is for violating the local option law. Appellant has filed a motion to strike from the statement of facts, the orders of the commissioners conrt authorizing the local option election and declaring the result and placing snch law into operation. These orders were not made a part of the statement of facts. In writing the statement of facts, it is stated, “The clerk will here insert the orders.” In making up the transcript the clerk copied the orders into the transcript. To do this he had no authority. Ratcliff v. State, 29 Texas Crim. App., 248; Tyrell, 44 S. W. Rep., 159; Lyon v. State, 1 Texas Ct. Rep., 774; Hargrove v. State, 8 Texas Ct. Rep., 578. Eliminating these orders, there is no evidence in the record of the fact that the local option law was put into operation. It is necessary, in order to sustain a conviction under this law, that it be shown that the law was in force and this has not been done. The judgment is reversed and the cause remanded.
¶2 Reversed and remanded.
