A Busy Body.

The Mississippi railroad commission
is and will continue to be for some
time a very busy body, with more
work in addition to the regular routine
being constantly lined out for them.
The new matter that comes up almost
every day in the shape of notices from
common carriers, petitions from com.
munities and from corporations for this
or against that, all of which require
investigation at the hands of the com
mission, and this takes time from the
routine inspection or road work usually
before that body.
