SOLICITOR ]. B. WALL
BRINGS SUIT ON CRISP
Attacks constitutionality OF Law Put
ting Him on Salary Basis and
Seeks to Ealoin Clerk and
County Commissioners.

J. 3. Walls, solicitor of the Gordele
! circuit has fled a very interesting
and important suit in the superior
! court of Crisp county against the cOun-
| ty commissioners and the clerk Of the
| superior court, in which he seeks to
| enjOin the clerk from turning over to
| the county certain funds arising from
fines and forfeitures upon which he
claims a lien for insolvent costs earn
ed prior to January !. The injunction
applies to the county commissioners
also and seeks to prevent them frole
using these funds for county purposes.
II will be remembered that in 1916
constitutional amendment was
adopted providing that the fee sys-
TEN for the solicitors general might
be abolished in any judicial circuit
of the state and salary substituted
therefor In conformity with this
amendment, the legislature in 1918
passed an act ab0lishing the fees Of
the solicitor in the Cordele circuit.
and providing that all such fees should
be paid into the county treasury to be
used for county purposes. The act
also fixed a salary of 100000 per an
mum for the solicitor general and pro
vided that each Of the four counties
OF the circuit shall pay one thousand
dollars Of this amount, and the act
further provided that it become eff
fectiye January /, 1919, since which
date the Cordele circuit has Been
operating under this law The suit
filed by Mr.. Walls attacks the consti-
tutionality of the act upon various
grounds, and also sets up that he is
entitled to some two thousand dollars
Of fines collected in this county since
January /, which he contends should
be appropriated on insolvent cost or
ders allowed him prior to January l.
The contention of the county authori-
ties is that the act is in every way
constitutional and the fees of Mr. Wall
entirely ceased on and after January
t.
If Mr.. Walls should be sustained in
the contention which he raises the
effect of it will be placing him back
upon the fee basis as he was prior to
last January and also turn over to him
some two thousand dollars which has
come in from fines since that time.
The case is one of far-reaching inn
portance, as perhaps half Of the judi
cial circuits of the state have laws of
similar effect. And in addition would
mean cutie loss to the treasury OF
Crisp county, the fees received by the
solicitor under the old law being
argely in excess to the salary paid
under the new.
The case is now before Judge Cow
er for determination, and III any event
will go to the supreme court for final
Indication. Every point in the case
will be vigorously contested by both
sides The local law firm OF Crum K
Jones, together with Luther Rosser,
Of Atlanta appearing for the solicitor
general, while the county officials are
represented by E. F. Stroller.

BASKET DINNER BAR
BECJE FOR OLD VETS
Entertainment Committee Eias ar
ranged For A Big Spread Each day.

Dawson, June 12.-The matter Of
housing the veterans ard other visit
crs who VIII be our honored guests
June 1919 has been worked out to the
satisfaction of all interested, and
the outstanding feature Of entertain
ment now engrossing the minds Of the
very capable committee in charge is
the final arrangements for public
dinners.
The handling of this important job
has required careful thought and
planning to eliminate the possibility
CT confusion at the last moment. To
the regret of the committee certain
restrictions are absolutely necessary
but they confidently believe the pub
lie will fully understand and appre-
ciate the situation.
On June 18th-the first day of the
reunion-everybody in the county is
asked to come and bring basket,
the dinner to be served picnic fash
ion. In view Of the fact that sever
al hundred guests from over the state
are to be provided for only the heads
of Terrell county families are expect
ed, the same rule applying to the
homes of Dawson and everybody good
naturally acquiescing. A barbecue
on June 18th will be for the veterans
will approve this decision as the only
feasiblepl anfor making this just
what it is Intended successful and
happy time for the old heroes, who,
from the moment they arrive, will be
the first consideration of every citi-
zen who has a proper appreciation OF
the object of the reunion and the
right sort Of county pride.
The veterans and official visitors
as honor guests will be served first
be given every attention and courtesy
by the assembly, the homefolks en-
joying the spread at the second table
If, after the oft repeated state
ments in the columns of The News
setting forth the fact that seven OK
eight hundred veterans are expected
has not yet soaked into the minds of
the citizens it would seem that sur
gical operation is necessary to get the
idea fixed
The necessity for limiting the
guests at the barbecue to veterans
and official visitors does not mean
that there will be any restrictions as
to the crowd assembling. to enjoy the
day. 1t will be an easy matter for all
who wish to come to bring a little
lunch. The school grounds are beau
tiful for a picnic dinner and the
buildings furnish conveniences and
comforts for thousands, if necessary,
Let everybody who will bring a box
lunch, eat it in their cars or spread
it underneath the trees, just as they
like.

EDITORIAL COMMENT

The dairy industry is fac.
ing ruin in Salt river valley.
Crop rotation is named as a
remedy.---G1endale News.
Bah! Stop the separation
of butterfat from cream and
selling it to the creameries,
who hoard it for price-fxers.
Let the dairymen renew max
ing their own butter and put
their reserves of milk into
cheese. "Skimmed milk"
or more properly termed rob-
bed milk, because robbed of
its butterfat, it is only fit for
hogs and chickens It's like
the core in the apple. But
present propaganda of the big
c~eameries is to get thessdairy-
man to send them the cream
and expect him to feed his
stock on the remnant that is
left. Health officials are al
ready noting the prospect of
inferior offspring of the poor
laboring classes who are thus
forced to buy milk robbed of
its nutriment. This propa-
ganda includes skinning the
dairyman also by socalled
"tests" as to grade of the
buttertat extracted from whole
milk. One medical authority
has even quoted statistics by
showing increased mortality
from the 'hue" Of children
and infants fed on devitalized
or skinned" milk, as com
pared with other districts in
which regulations prescribe
only the marketing of whole
milk for human consumption

Count it a crowning shame
that with all the legislation,
