made wine with a kick was partly
the cause of trouble between two

tie an argument Myers hit the other
man over the head with a baseball

home made drink. Persistent
questioning failed to bring an an

was a wine he made in his back
yard and after eight days it is one

OLD COMMISSIONERS
TO STAY In OFFICE
QUESTION WHO WOULD MAKE
UP COUNTY BOARD WITH
OUT FRICTION.

A situation which gave promise of
complications as to who would con-
stltute to board of commissioners of
Terrell county was settled without
dlfhculty or friction Tuesday with the
result that the old board will con-
tlnue in Office. This condition was
brought about by the refusal of two
of the newly elected commissioners
to qualify and the declaration of the
third, who had qualified, that he had
decided not to demand a place on the
board.
There was a division of opinion as
to whether the law extending the
terms of county officers in Georgia
to four years instead of two applied
to the commissioners. On the theory
That 1T did not so apply and that
1t would be necessary to have an cleo
ton for such places this year, friends
of W. L. Pace, j! L. McLead and Dr.
ii. A. Cook, we'll known citizens of
the county, presented their names for
election to these places and they re-
celVed number of votes in the coun-
@'ASSoAS' y. VI I1O1llIlRSWOTI0, M
D. Laing and j A. Miller, taking the
position that they had been elected
to terms of four years under the gen
eral law, did not offer for reelection
at this time.
Mr.. w. L. Pace declined to take
the oath of Office or to make bond
and DR.. Cook, although he took the
oath of office, subsequently decided
not to make the bond and to qualify.
Mr.. Mcleod took the oath of office
and made the required bond but
when he appeared at the meeting
place of the commissioners in the or
dinary's Office Tuesday morning, he
stated that he had no desire to make
a contest over the place and thought
that the best interests of the county
demanded that the old board con-
tinue to serve, under the peculiar
circumstances of the situation.
