Mr.. Fielder said to the Morning News
correspondent to-day that the bill
would be introduced this week and
quick hearing for it would be asked.
Mr.. Blackburn says he is going to
push his "Patterroller'' bill next week.
Mr.. Calvin's bill. for constitu-
tional convention has been favorably
reported and read the second time.
This bill will doubtless be put on its
passage in a few days.
Altogether there is plenty of work
ahead to keep the Legislature busy
next week and the week after, and
there is a disposition to devote that
time to the considera ton of impor-
tant measures such as these men,
toned.
Matters for the Senate.
1t is almost impossible to say what
important legislation will come up in
the Senate during the week If the
House passes the Australian ballot bill
that measure will be sent to the SEN
ate, but it can hardly come up for
consideration during the week. There
is an Impression in the Senate that
the bill will fail in the House, and in
that event the senators will never
have a chance to consider it.
Senator Ledford is preparing a bill
which he will Introduce early next
week, prohibiting the sale of domestic
wines made from fruits, berries, etc.
He does not propose to prohibit the
manufacture, but only the sale in the
prohibition counties. II will be law
full to manufacture the wines and ship
them to other countries and sell them
there. The idea seems to be that the
wine industry is all right, and not to
be interfered with, but that the drink
ing of the wine must not be done in
the dry counties where the wine is
produced. Senator Ledford says there
is a man in his county who last year
made 600 gallons of domestic wines,
and this year is arranging to make a
thousand.
The position of the Senator recalls
the story of the Chinaman, who, COM
menting on the work of missionaries
in China, declared that the mission
aries, in effect, said to the Chinaman:
I'VE can make you good enough to
go to heaven, but we can't guaran-
tee making you good enough to go to

The Committee on Constitutional
amendments has four bills that will
likely be reported upon during the

Atlanta. July 1O.-This week will be
an imnOrtant one in the House. The
vote of the Australian ballot bill will
vrohablv be settled Tuesday, so far as
the House is concerned and Mr.. KEEL
lev of Glascock, the author of the
measure. is confident that it will be
r.ssed. He has good reason to hope
for the success of the bill, as next
Tuesday will probably find a very
large attendance, as those members
who went to st. Louis will have re-
turned and most of those who get out
of town for Sunday will be in their
seats. Mr.. Kelley said to the Morn
ing News correspondent:
The bill is going through practical

any defects. The friends of the bill

will be explained and it will be found
that it does not change existing laws

VIII Take Up Appropriation Bill.
After the Australian ballot bill is dis
posed of the House will probably take
up and push to a passage the general
lax act and the general appropriation
hlll These are measures that must
necessarily be gotten out of the way,
and as there is no difference of opin-
ION about them they will no doubt be
disposed of during the week.
Mr.. Slaton is very anxious to see
the bill passed providing for the court
OF appeals. This court is intended to
slft all the evidence in cases en- route
TO the Supreme Court. 1t will have
three members. The Supreme Court
VIII then become a court of law, sim
ply passing on the law involved in each
case as shown by the facts as pre-
scented by the court of appeals. The
supreme Court of Georgia is by far
the hardest worked court in the United
states. 1t passes upon 100 cases every
year. and it is necessary to hear con-
slder and decide and write the opin-
IONS in an average of more than three
cases per day the year around, and
some of the records require three weeks
to be read Mr.. Slaton will try to
nave the bill for the court Of appeals
considered next week.
Another important bill that may
come up for consideration in a few
days is that increasing the salaries of
me Governor and the Supreme and
superior Court judges.

Undoubtedly the best tobacco smok-

of Havana. For this reason many so
called Havana cigars are in reality

shipped to the United States, and the
revenue stamp is duly pasted on the

MANY smokers who prefer a light
wrapper enjoy the flavor of the Manila
wrapper with the Havana filler. To
satisfy this taste the Havana tobacco
frequently is wrapped in Connecticut
wrapper. which is colored to look like
a Manila wrapper.
Inferior grades of cigars frequently
are made of doctored tobacco, acid be-
ing used to stain the wrappers a light
straw color in spots. The best leaf
of the tobacco plant is that which
grows nearest to the ground, and when
the rain splashes mud on the leaf
these little straw colored spots appear
when the tobacco is cured. When
these spots are genuine the wrapper
