 Atlanta. Ca. Feb. 4.-President c. 5. Barret. "s the National Farmers Un- ion. in an interview here today, de- clared, emphatically in favor of defeat of the government free seed bill by the United States Senate. He depreea- ted the action of the House in over riding the report of the agricultural committee He said:
 ''rhe whole custom is graft, pure and simple. Every one knows that if 1t was not for political effect, the gov @rnment would have discontinued this needless appropriation. The whole custom Is based upon tho false assump- tion that the farmers can be controlled by few seeds distributed by the gov ernment and the rmers themselves have answered this time and again, by taking emphatic position against this form of graft.
 There Is no farmer in the country who does not see clearly though this vote getting scheme. The seed game has played out and the money could be appropriated much more advantax, eously by giving 1t to agricultural schools and go, roads"

I,lsa.treu. FrelEht wreel.

There was disastrous freight wreck on the Southern Railway between this city and Mobile last night. The wreck occurred about mile south of I.am:- son and while no one was hurt It Is wonder that several of the crew of the freight train were not killed. The train was running at good speed and was just passing over little creek when the bridge gave way and several of the freight cars fell through the bridge. badly tearing up the track and doing considerable damage.
 The wreck caused delay to ali or the passenger trains on that division of the southern, The midnight train from Mobile tc Birmingham which should have reached here at o'clock this moraing did not arrive in Selma until nearly noon today. The tram reached tue scene of the wreck about 10 o'clock last night and was held there untfa dnysight when transfer of the passengers was made.
 To make the transfer the passengers had to walk about half mile through water and mud. The railroad officials s.ated that the wreck would be cleared at 4 o'clock this afternoon and the regular train this afternoon for Mo- bile left on time.

NEW RAILROAD BILL
PROVIDES MODE OF DISTRIBUT-
 ING FORFEITED BONDS.
Roads Must Furnish Money to Be Paid 10 Shippers in Case Appeals from Commission
 Are Last.

Senator John W. Overton, Chairman
 of the Senate Committee on Commerce
 and Common Carriers yesterday intro-
 dueed bill providing mode for the distribution of all bonds forfeited by ! railroads in testing the validity of any I statutory or Commission made rate. The bill Is regarded as part of the
 general scheme Of Governor Conner and | his advisers in working out their ideas | of railroad rate legislation. While | the principal bills in which the admin | istration Is interested have already I passed the Senate there are several lsubsidiary administration measures to come. and the one introduced yester- day is one of them.
 Other rate measures provide that
 when a railroad appeals to the court against a rate which it alleges is un-
 fair and unjust. the Railroad Commits sion can require it to give bond to reimburse any shipper in case the de- cision of the courts is against the road. The bill yesterday introduced described the way in which the money from the forfeited bonds shall be distributed.
 The Commission shall first advertise in four Alabama newspapers, the for feiture of the bond, together with the information as to which road forfeit ed the bond and on what classes of freight. All applicants for a part of the bond must file with the Commis- sion sworn itemized statement which will show how much freight they shipped under the contested rate. These claims issust be filed within a year from the forfeiture of the bond,
 Under the bill. the Secretary of the Commission is required to keep In a well bound book an account with each forfeited bond. together with the claims that have been made upon It.

MARNLAND,s FIRsT THINGS

The dignified. chivalric Governor Of
Of Maryland was the admired Of all
admirers at the opening Of the James
town Exposition Friday, and was, as
usual, an honor to the State. In his
address Governor warield said among
other things:
More first things, from tho first
steamboat, and the first railroad, and
the FIRST telegraph, 10 the first reyo-
luton in printing, have come from
Maryland than from any other state
in tho Union. II was my special
privilege to be among the very first
Governors in the United States to
commend this Exposition to a legis-
lature. ard Maryland was one Of the
first states to authorize a Commission
and 10 take action looking forward
TO the contamination which we wit
ness here today.
1.-THE foundation for the cordial re-
lations between Virginia and Mary
land was laid in 1909, when Lord
Baltimore was a member of the Nir-
ginia Company, and was cemented
twenty years later, when he, with
Ills wife and children, had 10 aban-
don his colony in Newfoundland be-
cause of the rigorous climate of that
island, and take refuge at James
town. 1t may also interest
you To know that the first Governor
OF Virginia entertained ut jamestown
two haundred sand seventy-threG
years ago the first Governor of Mary
land.
From the beginning down TO the
present time, Virginia and Maryland
have been connected, not divided, by
the Potomac river and. the Chesapeake
bay. 81. Under the old articles
OF confederation, each OF the states
was almost a separate power.
Maryland and Virginia, however, en-
tered into compact which made
them, for purposes of trade, n single
state. Upon the invitation OF
George Washington, their Commits
sioners met Mt Mount Vernon and there
formulated the compact of 1856 which
Is still binding as the highest law
upon the two states. BY that compact
Maryland acquired the free naviga-
ton of the Chesapeake, free trade was
established between the two states,
and Virginia acquired concurrent
jurisdiction over the Potomac, river
which belonged exclusively to Mary
land.
ION the soil OF Maryland the crown
ing act of a great military career was
enacted. when, at Annapolis, ON De
cember %, 1888. in the old Senate
Chamber, of which this room is a
counterpart, Washington finally sheath
ed his sword and returned 10 Congress
his commission as commander in chief
of the Continental Army"
