RAILROAD COMMISSIONERS!!IP.
The Macon Telegraph of Mouday
con tain* the following editorial:
* “TheUrtnof Judge Erwin as a
member of the Georgia Uailroad
Commission will soon expire.
Judge Erwin ha* made an accepta
ble commissioner, but the people
of Middle and Southern Georgia
have a right to expect that his suc
cessor will come from one ot these
Motions.
“When the laat vacancy on the
railroad commission was filled, the
'Telegraph took occasion to com
ment cn the Injustice of the pres
ent grouping of these commission-
* era ip the northeastern corner of
the elate. Judge Erwin lives at
Athens; Mr. Robertson at Clarkes-
ville, and Mr. Trammell at Mari
etta. They are all within a few
milea of each other, while Che great
regions of middle and southern
Georgia are not represented on the
railroad commission, We trust
that when Governor Northen comes
to make the next appointment for
thle Important body he will find
some worthy man south of Atiauta
- to fill It. Mr. Trammell, the com
missioner who lives nearest the
center of the state, is twenty miles
north <# Atlanta, while that part of
Georgia aouth of Atlanta has much
mora than half the railroad mileage
in the State, has furnished by far
• the largest part ot ths railroad de
velopment in Georgia during the
past ten years, and has railroad
tonnsga far m excess of that on
Uanta. There are

» state which con-
lumber interests,
nayal* stores, the
great and growing melon, truok
and fruit crops. .This same region
also produces the bulk of Georgia’s
ootton crop.
MTne value of these great Indus
tries mill crops to tbo people Inter
eeteO in them, and to the Htate at
, depends In a great measure
2 ‘eatmsnt at
TraUrbadiT There
should be at least one man oira
railroad commission who is fanv
iar with the railroad situation in
Central and Southern Georgia,
is very rare that a railroad commis
sioner la seen aouth of Atlanta.
There ought to be one located below
the mountains ot North Georgia.
Under the law ths commlsaloner
appointed to succeed Judge Erwin
must he a lawyer, and it 1» under
stood that Judge Allen Fort, of
Americas, will be an applloant for
tllO position. Judge Fort is In every
w*y 1 qualified for the responsible
position. Hs is a lawyer of ability
and has served with distinction on
the bench, t He Is also a mau of af-
Are and la thoroughly posted con-
the* Industrial and agri
cultural development of ths State.
\ye have no doubt that he would
fill the office of railroad cominis-
! sloner admlrbly. But the point
f. the Telegraph wishes to emphasise
and Insist upon is that the new
commissioner shall come from
middle and southern Georgia,
h They may be other applicants from
Efjlffo ports of the State as well quail-
, fifed and as worthy as Judge Fort.
oosfldvnce that Governor
North- n will make no mistake as
to character of his appoints for this
important cfiles. We also belieys
that he will appreciate the force of
the claims of central and southern
Georgia for direct reprseentatlon
upon * commission which is of
■ueh viflhlmportance to the pecu
liar Interne of these sections of
the b'Ute." \
Tl^* argument of the Telegraph
is very sound ^mnd logical, but
The Recorder wWtd briefly call
the aitentlorf of tbeT||legraph to a
few points,
In the building of
Southwest Georgia lead*
tkm of the^ 6Utv. Amerii
city of
Georgia,
the law which created the Railroad
Commltalon, Judge Fort, as Sum
ter’s representative, framed the
bill, and secured its passage, or
was largely instrumental in doing
so. Southwest Georgia has but
one representative among all the
Htate ofilcere, and that one but
lately. Aside from these argu
ments, there is not « man in the
State, better qualified, if as well,
tor such a position, than Judge
Fort. And Americus and South
west Georgia will Insist upon hav
ing a representative on the com
mission.
