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. NEWSPAPERS VS. CIRCULARS.

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 ; .quarters of a million already in- j vested thorn in shops. Bids will ; I be advertised next week. Oon-j jstruction work will be begun at•, iqnce and will be rapidly pushed ' jto a conclusion. ! When the new machine shops ■ are finished the Central will be! supplied with tl)e best railroad re- \ pair shops to be found anywhere | in the south. Major J. F. Hanson, president | of the road, returned from New ; York today ami was at his offices i in the Candler bifilffing. lie said j! that lie had just, purchased for the Central bJKH) tons of steel rails in New York, at a cost of The rails will be used j for the purpose of renewing the' present trackage of the road. .Under the Illinois Central con trol Major Hanson expects to see the railroad prosper more than ever and many improvements will |be made in the near future, both !jn road bed and equipment. Ma jor Hanson himself, who stands | very near to Mr. Harriman, will! .continue as president and there j 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 head, HOKE SMITH HEADS TRUSTEES OF SCHOOL. The new hoard of trustees of the Donald Fraser school consist ing of 21 members recently nam ed at the Atlanta presbytery, which now owns the school, will be headed by Governor Hoke Smith. He lias been named as chairman of tlm hoard and a member of the executive com mittee. The executive committee is now engaged in the work of securing a new head for the institution and is negotiating with some of the most distinguished educators of the south. Not only that, but, the committee has m preparation plans for the erection of new buildings for the school and for the purchase of a handsome and enlarged site, all of the details of which will be announced later and will create a distinct surprise, as the plans are for a secondary school to be unparalleled in the South.
