BARROW IS NAMED
STRIKE UMPIRE.
Washington, I). C, June 21.
In view of the declination of Hi- j
shop Candler of Georgia to act as ;
arbitrator in the strike of
Georgia Railroad firemen, the ar
bitrators to-day agreed upon Da
vid C. Barrow, Chancellor of the
University of Georgia,as the third
arbitrator.
The time fur the appointment
of third arbitrator expired last
night at midnight. The appoint
ment of Bishop Candler by the
arbitrators was declined. By j
the strict construction of the law,
the appointment of the arbitrator t
reverted to the Board of Medi
ation, consisting of Chairman
Martin A. Knapp of Interstate
Commerce Commission and Dr.
Clnis. R. Neill, Commissioner of
Labor. However, at a conference
of the arbitrators to-day, Hon.
Hihary A. Herbert and Repre
sentative Hardwick of Georgia,
it was decided to tender the ap
pointment to Chancellor Barrow.
This was agreed to by the Board
of Mediation. Assurances had
been received that Chancellor
Barrow would accept, the appoint
ment.
ft is likely that the first full
session of the board of arbitra
tion will be hold m Atlanta the
early part of next week. Under
the law, the arbitrators of the
controversy must be concluded
within thirty days from the date
of the appointment of the third !
arbitrator.

REV. JNO. F. EDEN LEAVES.
CUTHBERT FOR AUGUSTA.
Cuthherfc, Gtt., Juno Iff.—Rev.
John F. Eden,pastor of the Cuth
f,ert. Baptist church, has tender
ed his resignation, to tai<e effect
the first week in August. He re
signs to accept a call to the pas
torate,<<f the Curtis Baptist church
in Augusta, Ga.
Air. Eden has many friends >u
Cutbcrt, both in his congregation
as well as among the people of
Cuthbert, who regret exceedingly
to give him up as a citizen and as
a pastor of one of our churches.
They are nevertheless, glad that
he has received this flattering call
from one of Augusta’s important
churches of his denomination.
During the pastoraee of Mr. Eden
here, of several years, the church
has made steady growth along
most all lines of church activity,
REGARDING COUNTY AGRI
CULTURAL COMMISSIONERS.
With the idea of securing more
I
perfect organization m the dis-'
semination of improved cultural
j methods and uplifting life on the
j farm generally. The Farmers’ ;:
! Union News is briskly advocating ;
j the creation of a commissioner,
of agriculture for each county in i
I the state, supplementing the <
present system of state and fed
jeral departments.
Whatever may be the ultimate
outcome of the demand, it is sup
ported by contentions that, are j
| obviously logical.
Marvelous progress lias been
! recorded both by the individual
I states and the federal government. I
in the matter of introducing
scientific methods of farming and
fostering the all-important work
of farm ex peri imitation.
The bulletins and literature j
regularly issued by the state de- .
part me ut of agriculture in Geor
gia, for instance, m conjunction !
with the regular output of the de- !
partmont at Washington and its j i
agents, have been of incalculable
value m demonstrating to the
farmers ot this state and the
county-at-large the benefits of .
business methods in their daily
vocation.
It is now argued, and with reas
on, that the county commissioner
would como as Die completing 1
link between state and federal
departments.
His duties would consist largely
in a localizing of farm improve- >
me ut propaganda. He would be
charged with making a study of I
conditions in his immediate vi
cinity, reporting on retorms need- i
ed and the most expedient way
j of securing them.
The system has been tried, with I
| tellipg results, in Mississippi and
jollier southern and western states,
jin each instance, where money I
! has been invested in inagurating «
I the work, prompt and rich divi
j deeds have been the result. , •
There is little question that a j
large proportion of the benefits of I
tin-dom lustration and experiment, 1
| work of both state and federal I
j government is now lost because |
i means are lacking to secure an j
j audience for them in the sections j I
j most in need, and for adapting i 1
[them to the peculiar situation ji
j obtaining in each locality.—CJon- I
stitution. '
COMPLETED SHOPS TO 1
BE FINEST |N SOUTH.!:
Atlanta, Ga., June 21. —One ot .
the first results of the recent ac- i j
j quisition of t lie Ontral ot Gear- |
gia Railroad by the Illinois Ceii- L
tral will ne the immediate outlay j ,
of a million dollars on the shops q
in Macon in addition to the three ;

When the new machine shops ■
are finished the Central will be!

Major J. F. Hanson, president |
of the road, returned from New ;

.Under the Illinois Central con
trol Major Hanson expects to see
the railroad prosper more than
ever and many improvements will

!jn road bed and equipment. Ma
jor Hanson himself, who stands
| very near to Mr. Harriman, will!

Will be no change in the general
j policy that has been pursued for
: several years past.
Major Hanson said that the
I transfer of the road was not un
j expected and had really been in
j contemplation ever since Mr.
jHarriman acquired control of the
!j property. The Illinois Central was
! to need of an outlet to the south- i
the Montgomery monitor—Thursday, junk 21. 10m
eastern Atlantic ports and no bet
ter connection could be made
than through the Central of Geor
gia. The actual transfer was
made, Major Hanson said, for
Mr.Harriman byOakleigh Thorne.
While in New York Major Han
son held a mini bo r of conferences
with Mr. Harriman and with the
information acquired, he is
thoroughly equipped for carrying
out the Harriman plans for its
improvement. The major’s many
friends in the state will be glad
to know that the recent sale will
not mean any change in the ac
tive management of the Central
and that lie will continuous its
