The Fight is Against the Commis sioners of Dooly County to 8top Them From Carrying oij Certain Public Works, J Oct. 16—thA certain citizens of Vienna and North Dooly county are making against the commissioners of roads and revenues to stop the performing of certain public improvements in the new county of Crisp, has taken on a new turn by the filing of an application >r amendment of the rule nisi that as returnable to Judge Littlejohn at AmerlcuB last Saturday.

It further alleges that there Is a set scheme between Chairman Hamilton and Commis sioner Greer, who live in Crisp county and are In a majority, illegally spend the money of Dooly county on improvements in Crisp. Chairman Hamilton and Commis sioner Greer have been cited to ap pear before Judge Littlejohn next Saturday and make answer to appliction. Attorneys for the com missioners are now drawing the ans wer.

Equipment is as important as excellence in material, and our plant is the most up-to-date in America. Machinery cleanses the malt kernels before use; machinery weighs all the- ingredients, preserving just, accurate relative proportions WITHOUT GUESS WORK: and then the beer is cooled in pipes, where the air, even “filtered” air, is absolutely excluded. The wort that is to be American Queen takes its course from hopper t > tuns, and after aging, on to the bottling plant through pipe mechanisms which thoroughly insure its isolation and protection. Another invention pecu liar to our brewery makts and preserves the carbonic gas to be used in bottling. This adds immensely to the flavor. Finally, even the machinery used for cleanliness is Cleansed every day before using. These lavish precautions make American Queen the most ex pensively brewed beer you can buy at the regular beer price. They enable us to economize in many departments and return the saving into quality of ingredients. Always call for American Queen wherever you drink beer. Watch for our next *d. on the art of brewing. ^ ACME BREWING CO., Macon, Ga. Special Trunk Sale.
