Of this measure. the gentleman
whose name is attached to it as the
person who introduced it after it
had been agreed upon in commit
| tee Sulu WHtH lultIThguttu upon
that point in the course of his re.
marks at the opening of this dis
cussion, that he thought il wonld
be found in the bill. He thought
the provision was broad enough to
cover that; he thought that when
the rate is made by the commission
that rate will he the rate in force
until or unless II court OF proper
jurisdiction set 1t aside. Asked
where he finds 1t, he replied, in the
first section.
Turn to the first section and YOU
will not find it and the courts will
not find it; it is not there, and it
was not intended to put it there.
Now then if tbe nprnoSe bo to
