DR.BROUCHTON'S
FRIENDS WOULD
GET HIM BACK
Plan Made at Tabernacle to
Send Call to Its Former
Famous Pastor.

movement was begun today to
famous pastor Atlanta ever had, back
to the pastorate of the Baptist Taber-
nacle. While no official action has been
taken toward filing the vacancy caused
by the resignation Of DR.. r. S. MacAr-
thur, a large number of the congrega-
ton are known to be strongly in favor
of obtaining Dr. Broughton again.
They plan to plead strongly with DR.,
Broughton, on his visit to Atlanta for
the Bible conference, to give up his
London charge.
DR.. MacArthur's formal resignation
was read to the Tabernacle conference
mously accepted.
The resignation, announced in The
Georgian yesterday simply stated that
his position as president of the Worlds
Baptist alliance called him to larger
fields and that he felt it is his duty to
answer the call.
Tells of Duties Calling Him Away.
He called attention to recent reac-
tionary movements in Russia, said he
may be called to England soon to con-
fer with the European alliance, and
added that ne is pledged to be present
at several meetings in the North and
East soon that prevent his remaining
longer in the Atlanta pastorate.
Reported differences among mem
bers of the congregation were not In
evidence at the conference when DR..
MacArthur's resignation was accepted.
The only intimation that there might be
fractional differences in the church came
with the parting admonition of Dr. ].
]. Hall, who acted as moderator last
night.
Il want to give just one friendly word
of advice" DR.. Hall stated. 1T can be
/ expressed in two words stand togeth-
err This Tabernacle is too great an
institution to be wrecked by any fac
tional divisions. Stand together and
be of good cA9er, and all things will
work out to t glory of God and of the
Tabernacle
Resignation Brings Women to Tears.
The weekly prayer meeting, which
preceded conference last night, was
| called for 8 o'clock, but the word had
gone forth that DR.. MacArthur's resig-
nation would be presented, and long be-
fore that hour the members of the con-
!! gregation began to gather.
C. w. Hatcher, chairman of the board
of deacons, read DR.. MacArthur's res
ignation. The document, in addition to
the resignation. carried a message OF
love to the various societies connected
with the Tabernacle work. Some Of
the women present were moved to tears
In his resignation, DR.. Macarthur
said that he accepted the position as
acting pastor of the Tabernacle at
time when it's condition, financially
speaking, was most critical. He said he
had been advised that he was taking
grave responsibility in accepting the
! position.
Some of my strong Baptist friends"

the resignation continued, could sac
no solution Of the difficulties of tbo
Tabernacle save by the sale of the
property under foreclosure.
Because of this critical position-no+
to use a stronger term-I have, I'm -
the present, declined most urgent cole
to special service in different parts -
the world"
After declaring that he had bao,
mildly criticised for devoting so ruoI,
time to one corner of the world Dr
MacArthur's letter called attention -
other duties confronting him and cIosoS
with message of love to the congress-
ton.
Chairman Hatcher also read reso,,,
tions, prepared by the board of deacors

Arthur, and wishing him success in hi.

NOTHING PAIDFOR
DEFENDING POOR
Atlanta Lawyers Consider the
Move for Remuneration for
Counsel Named by Court.

Atlanta attorneys, especially those oc-
casionally appointed to act for persons
who nave no funds to fight criminal
charges, are coming to the conclusion
that Georgia should adopt the policy of
other states and pay these lawyers for
their work. At present attorneys
named by the court serve without
recompense,
In discussing Governor Browns re-
cent statement to the effect that there
is q tendency on the part of Georgia
courts to appoint Inexperienced lawyers
to defend poor prisoners Superior
Judge L. $. Roam said;
while I am certain that this court
always has provided a proper defense
for accused persons, the judge neces-
sarily is restricted in his appointments
to available lawyers and those ac-
quainted with criminal practice.
Judge Roam Favors Pay.
1T leaves a narrow margin of Sc
lection sometimes, because often judge
is made to select the lawyer at once,
and must appoint one who happens to
be in the court room"
| In the suggestion that Georgia s Grim
inaI procedure might profit by an ar
raugemeut for paying lawyers for their
work, Judge Roam concurred. He said
that a judge often had a hesitancy in
appointing lawyer to defend prison
er when he know that the appointment
would work a hardship on the lawyer
by upsetting some of his plans
Governor Browns criticism came
when he committed the sentence of a
negro on the grounds that the defense,
committed to the care Of an inexpe-
rienced lawyer had not been eXhaus-
tive
Clay Case an Instance.
Often under the present system able
| lawyers are forced to give three and
/ four days Of their time to prepare and
conduct the defense Of persons charged
with crime, without any recompense
| Robert L. Clay, who, a month ago,
went to his death on the gallows in the
Fulton Jail for Staying his wife, was
defended 10y a lawyer appointed by the
court. Several days were spent in his
defense and the case dragged over sew
eral months on motions for new trials,
arguments before the prison board and
/ the governor.
I While no definite action has been
taken, it is understood that the gov
/ ernors statement has set local lawyers
to thinking. and that the question will
/ be discussed by the local bar Ii may
/ DE that the legislature will be asked to
consider bin providing for the pay
ment of lawyers forced 10 defend poor
| persons.

Responsibility Fixed
In New System.

Another point discussed was whether
the 1--WE commissioners, perhaps seven,
should be elected for specific offices or
ministrative board the board itself to
assign them to departments.
The latter part was decided as best,
because Of the danger Of an aspirant
to the head Of the police and fire de
partments or the construction depart
ment building up a political machine.
While the new charter will give each
administrator full control over a GER
tain department, the full board will al
ways be a board of appeal from any OF
his orders-that is, so far as the public
is conceTned-but not the men under
him.
1t is proposed to have an admins
traitor of finance, an administrator of
health and hospitals, an administrator
OF protection, having charge Of the fire
and police departments, and probably a
division of the construction work, the
park and waterworks departments be-
tween the two administrators.
The mayor will be chairman of the
board, and likely will have veto power
over both council and the board, re-
quiring a thirds majority to over
ride his veto The mayor IS also to
have charge of one department, most
likely the finance department.
The most ardent advocates of com
mission government declare that under
this plan responsibility can be fixed
and officials will have authority to car
~ out their plans. Those who insist
on retaining a representative plan have
that preserved.

evidence Of deep feeling as to the poll

that they would avoid anything that
might look like a protection OF an Off

to protect the schools from politics with
due regard for the sensitive feelings OF
parents about the treatment Of their
children by school teachers.

GRAIN SHOW OPENED
Nearly Every Section Represented in
Pre-ExpOsition Exhibit in Co
lumbia.

The State, Friday.
With nearly every section OF the
State represented in exhibits OF agrl-
cultural products, the South Carolina
State grain show opened at the State
Fair grounds Thursday. The
show is being held to select conpetl-
tive exhibits to represent South Car
olina in the Fifth National Corn ex-
position, which opens here on the
9th of this month. The names OF
those farmers whose exhibits will be
held for this purpose will be an
nounced tonight by the authorities
in charge of the grain show.
In view of the fact that there was
no monetary prize to be won at the
grain show, it is considered that the
number of exhibits entered, and the
number of counties represented is
most encouraging, and indicative OF
the keen interest felt throughout the
State in the Fifth National Corn eX-
position, of which the grain show is a
preliminary. The authorities in
charge of the show were, in fact
somewhat. surprised at the number OF
the exhibits entered. 1t was unpacked
and set up yesterday, but this work
will be completed early this morning.
Representatives Of the Farmers Co

then select 20 samples in each class
of products submitted, and these Will
be retained here for the Fifth Nation

SOLD so HOGS AT BIG PROFIT.
Georgetown Planter Raises Fine
Breed and Makes Coed Sales.

Georgetown, Jan. 9.-Mr. J. Louis
LaBruce, owner of Arundel plantation,
on the Pee-Dee River, in George
town county, shipped on cars to deal
er in Bennettsville, S. c., sixty fine
Berkshire hogs, which he raised on
his place last year. He has left about
one hundredmore, the larger number
of which he expects to keep for breed
ing purposes, and go into the hog
industry to be very profitable, if pro-
perly conducted Rice plantations are
since the rice field growth provides fa-
vorite food for the animals and plenty
of fresh water, in this manner contrl-
buting not only to economy; but to
healthfulness. Mr. LaBruce states that
he has not had a case Of cholera at
Arundel in thirty years. The hogs he
has been raising during the past year
are as fine specimens Of porkers as
anyone would care to see, and many
of them would undoubtedly win primes
at hog show.
Mr.. LaBruce did not object to state
the debts and credits on account OF
this particular shipment of hogs. He
declares that these hogs would keep
fat all the spring and summer and
until late in the autumn in his rice
fields and marshes. Then he turned
them into the woods and caring for
these hogs amounted about .06 ga cent
per pound on the foot, he expects to
get $500 for this shipment of sixty
hogs. The order from the Renn"tts-
vile dealer was for ons H. dred hogs,
