Arlington Wins Point
In County Site Row;
Injunction Dissolved

ARLINGTON, Ca, August ~
Judge W. V. Custer, of Calhoun
county superior court, dissolved the
injunction brought by three citizens
Of Morgan, Ga, enjoining the Cal
houn county board of commissioners
from moving the county site records
from Morgan to Arlington, at a
hearing held at Morgan Saturday.
This injunction was filed imme'
diately after the last. general assem-
bly, had passed a bill moving the Cal
houn county site from Morgan, to
Arlington. The point on which the
injunction was fled was that due
to the fact that the county site re-
moval election when Arlington won
out by a small vote. should have been
ratified by the 1922 general assem-
bly, and when that assembly failed
to ratify it, the bill could not be
brought over to the next legislature
and legally passed. Judge Custer
in his decision yesterday ruled it
could. However, he did grant a
supersedeas enabling the Morgan
citizens to carry the fight to supreme
court which they will more than
