CANDLER BILL UP IN HOUSE FOR PASSAGE Continued from Page One. ot the present commissioner expiring on October 15, 1909, shall be extended to December 1, 1909,'the term of the pres, ent commissioner expiring on October 15, 1911, shall be extended to Decem ber 1. 1911, and the term of the com missioner expiring Oct. 15, 1913. shall be extended to December 1. 1913, their respective successors to be elected for full terms of.six years each. Mr. Candler, of DeKalb, spoke In fa vor of the adoption of the amendment proposed by the committee. , He declared thut the committee did not tnko hasty action In proposing an Increase In the membership of the rail road commission, but had devoted four afternoons to Its consideration. Mr. Candler declared that the United States court should have Just as much right to enjoin tho reading of a bill the thlr time ns it should to set aside the ruling of the railroad commission, ex cept In cases which such oredr amount ed to a confiscation. Trivial Appeals. lie declared that| appeals from the rulings of the commission were not always based, on strict law, but are frequently bnsed on trivial matters. Mr. Hall, of Bibb, asked If there was anything In the bill compelling obe dience pending litigation. “I will answer that In due time when I come to It," replied Mr. Candler. Mr. Candler stated that the present commission has urged the legislature to enact a law which will compel ob servance of their rulings pending liti gation. They have told, us that appeals have been delayed and have cost the state great sums of money. For six years the commission has urged that they be given the same au thority over telephone and telegraph companies that they have over rail roads and this bill gives them that. "But It goes further. It gives them tho same authority over street car lines, docks, wharves, tennlnnls and terminal stations, etc. The commission has not asked that this be done, but Is It rad- leal? All these corporations are. public utility corporations and the commission should be allowed to exercise the same authority over them that they exer cise over railroad companies. “The commission has also asked au thority to compel side tracks, spur tracks and physical connections and this bill gives It to them." Mr. Candler took up each of the sec tions of the bill and discussed the mer its of each at some length. In reply to a question from Mr. Boyd, of Spalding, as to why the member ship of the railroad commission should be Increased from three to five, Mr. Candler said: "That Is a very small matter, and If you strike out that amendment you will not destroy the primal object of this bill. "I am In favor of having five com missioners because they will be en trusted with the regulation of 1250,- 000,000 of property. “People Get Fooled.” If the commissioners were not elect ed by the people. It might be a different matter, but the people some time get footed—not all the time—as Abe Lin coln said, but sometimes, and with five commissioners you can have a business man, a farmer, a lawyer, a railroad man and a mechanic, and I submit that five men would be better qualified to cope with the larger responsibilities placed upon' them than three men would.” Mr. Candler concluded his remarks by urging tho commute not to take hasty action upon the amendments recommended by the committee. Mr. Hall, of Bibb, followed Mr. Can dler In the discussion of the bill. He declared that there Is no personal feeling In regard to the bill and that there-are.certain features of It which he favors. Mr. Hall declared that the bill makes no provision for enforcing the rulings of the railroad commission pending liti gation In the courts. At 12:66 o'clock Mr. Candler moved that the committee rise, report progress and ask leave to sit again. The motion prevailed and the house adjourned at 1 o'clock to meet again at 3 o’clock Thursday afternoon, at which time the discussion of the bill was resumed.
