Mr.. Alfred Uih1ein

Dear Sir:
Answering your favor
Of recent date in regard
to the Influence Of
light on the quality Of
beer, will say that our
observations xtending
over the last twenty
five years, have con-
WINGED US beyond a
doubt that exposure Of
beer to light has a very
detrimental influence on
it's quality generally,
but especially upon the
flavor of the beer.
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1913-04-11

We have tested beers
repeatedly in this di-
rection placing the bot
ties into direct sun
light and testing the
same after one, two,
three and five minutes
exposure, found that the
beer with three and five
minutes exposure became
urldrinkable on account
Of the peculiar odor
developed.
The detrimental effect
Of light upon beer can
be successfully counter,
acted by the empl oyment
of brown or dark colored
glass bottles, and such
bottles are therefore
recommendab1e.

Sheriff'S Men
Forced to Wait

Because of the failure of the Full
ton commissioners to get together with
the county auditor and county attorney
on certain phases of the salary act,
members Of the sheriff's force have de-
SPARED of getting more than A per
cent of their January pay until March 1.
Chairman Smith, of the commission,
intimated Saturday that the commits
sioners would adjust the differences in
such manner that the sheriff-s force
would be properly paid, but Saturday
meeting failed to develop anything ex-
cept that the under sheriffs would have
later session.

FINAL argument in the test case

represented by Luther Z. Rosser Judge
Arthur Powell conducted the case for

The case went to the supreme court
month ago on a writ of error when
Superior Judge Pendleton declared it to
be valid. ]. d. Fitzpatrick, who with
Judge Powell has acted for the officials
in the contest, is i'll at the Davis Fis-
cher Sanitarium.
1t is understood that the high tribunal
will reach a decision in the case speed

abolish the court of appeals may expect
to have the bar of the state arrayed
against him pretty solidly; and with
the bar assuming that attitude, the OPP
position to the court likely would not
spread to any great extent among the
people.
1t would be out of the question to
abolish the appeals court without max
ing provision for a larger supreme
court, or limiting the right Of appeal.
Neither Of these propositions would
find very great favor with the people,
so a great majority of the practicing
attorneys thinker profess to think,
anyway.
There may be some feeling against
the appeals court-but the bet that 1t
will survive all attacks seems a very
good one right now. The court was es-
tablished as a necessity and doing
away with it would establish the
necessity.
That this necessity might be relieved
In any way more satisfactory than
formerly is very doubtful.

The recorder recently sent Ave white
men to the bastile, without the alter
native Of a fine, and they now are
working the roads of Ware county for
their food and LODGINGS both furnished
under guard.
Taking a cue from the recorder, the
council has seized upon sample bot
tie of near-beer from the various dis
pensaries in Waycross and has an
nounced that it will go after every
dealer whose sample analyses over
one-half Of one per cent OF alcohol by

If there IS any near-bee in Georgia

Looks as If the tigers" of Georgia
are up against hard times and strenu-

The Dalton Citizen, edited by T. S.
Shope, whose historic run-in with
Judge Augustus w. Fite yet is green
in the memory of all Georgians thus
lndorses the Judge for the attorney gen.
eralship of Porto Rico:
The Citizen would, of course,
like to see Judge Fite appointed at
torney general of Porto Rico.
In fact, it will indorse him for
anything he wants in foreign lands,
and the farther away. the stronger
Will be our Endorsement"
The tip comes as straight as a string,
however, that his honor has no banker
ing, really, for that Porto Rican as
sgnment, but desires to be placed upon
the court of'claims bench in Washing
ton.
Even at that, however, Shope still
will let his Endorsement stand, no doubt
as Wa shington is several miles far
Their away from Dalton than is the
Cherokee judicial circuit.
The would-be new county OF Can
dler, another south Georgia hopeful,
will knock for legislative admission into
the union of counties when the general
assembly meets in June.
Gambler proposes to gather itself to-
gether from three directions. 1t will
ask to be fashioned of slices OF TAFT
nall, Bulloch and Emanuel, and should
be situated about the middle Of the sec
ton of the state now given over to
those three.
If Gambler gets legislative permission
to come in, and the people ratify It, its
county seat will be Meter.
If this thing of new counties keeps
up. the incoming legislature will con-
slider 1t a dull week that sees no new
county seeking authority to set up
shop and begin business.

II ooeS not seem likely, however, that
bill to abolish the court of appeals
can succeed.
Undoubtedly there would be some
support given such a measure, if pro-
posed, but not sufficient to get it
through--especially as the court would
have to be abolished by way of a con-
stitutional amendment, requiring a
two-thirds vote of both houses to pass.
1t may be true that a certain amount
or feeling has been raised against the
appeals court, but the bar OF the state
which, through it's organiza tion is
responsible for the courts by no
means opposed TO it, and would view
with genuine alarm, perhaps, legisa-
tive effort to get rid of it.
